    Physical fitness of blind and sighted children (1987)

    Notes: Summary Twenty-seven children (age 7–17 years) with varying degrees of blindness but with no other known disorder were assessed for physical fitness. Twenty-seven randomly selected children with normal eyesight were also assessed. Maximum oxygen uptake ( $$\dot V_{{\text{O}}_{{\text{2 max}}} } $$ ) was measured directly during a progressive exercise test on a treadmill. There was a significant and substantial reduction in $$\dot V_{{\text{O}}_{{\text{2 max}}} } $$ in totally blind children (mean ± standard deviation 35.0±7.5 ml · min−1 · kg−1) compared with normal children (45.9±6.6 ml · min−1 · kg−1). Partially sighted children had a significant but smaller reduction in $$\dot V_{{\text{O}}_{{\text{2 max}}} } $$ . Fitness assessed by a step-test was significantly reduced in the visually impaired children, and skin-fold thickness was also significantly greater in totally blind children. The level of habitual physical activity for each child, as assessed by a questionnaire, correlated with $$\dot V_{{\text{O}}_{{\text{2 max}}} } $$ (r=0.53,p〈0.0001). Blind children were significantly less active than normal children, and the difference between mean $$\dot V_{{\text{O}}_{{\text{2 max}}} } $$ for blind and normal children became non-significant when their different activity levels were taken into account. It is concluded that totally blind children are less fit than other children at least partly because of their lower level of habitual activity.

    Notes: The following references encompass a review of recent literature where the in vivo expression of eukaryotic and/or prokaryotic luciferases provide for sensitive reporters of cellular activity. The list is subdivided into prokaryotic and eukaryotic applications. We have included the uses of luciferases in elucidating the control of gene expression or for monitoring cell viability. We have not included papers cited by Stanley and Stewart (J Biolumin Chemilumin 1990; 5:141-52) nor have we included papers on the structure and regulation of luciferases as this now substantial literature will be the subject of a future review. References cited in both this review and previous ones are referred to by the number assigned to them in the earlier review.
