“…27,28 These alterations in menstrual function have been associated with reduced levels of estradiol, progesterone, and follicle-stimulating hormone, particularly during adolescence. 27,29,30 Studies of recreational athletes suggest that ovarian function may be altered in women who engage in less strenuous activity through lower mean hormone levels, longer menstrual cycle lengths, 31,32 or the occurrence of anovulatory menstrual cycles, 33 but to our knowledge the data are not as conclusive as those for athletes. Recent physical activity may also act through hormonal mechanisms by continuing to impact ovarian hormone levels among premenopausal women, may directly lower estrogen levels, 34 or may alter circulating estrogen levels of postmenopausal women indirectly 9 by lowering BMI or maintaining weight among postmenopausal women.…”

The aim of this study is the creation of an empirical model that can be used to predict the viscosity of a semicrystalline polymer melt for polymer process control. We have developed an empirical viscosity equation from both analysis and experimentation that takes into consideration the effect of temperature on both the flow behavior and the consistency index in the power law. The analysis is based on previously published literature, whereas the experimental data have been obtained from both the literature and laboratory investigations. The coefficients of the empirical model for low‐density polyethylene and polypropylene have been obtained from the experimental data derived from capillary rheometer measurements in the laboratory. This empirical model is able to produce results matching the experimental data with remarkable accuracy. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 88: 3045–3057, 2003

“…High levels of estrogens and progesterone play a central role in exposing breast tissue to harmful effects. Their serum levels are known to decrease with exercise (23), even with exercise of moderate intensity (24)(25)(26), under experimental conditions. Whether this mechanism holds true for occupational physical activity is not known, although moderate levels of physical activity, as found among cleaners, kitchen staff, and clerical workers at hospitals, appear to affect the female reproductive system, as measured by the time to pregnancy (ie, fecundability) (27).…”

We study the correlation of choice under risk in Holt-Laury lotteries for gains and losses with gender, the use of hormonal contraceptives, menstrual cycle information, salivary testosterone, estradiol, progesterone, and cortisol as well as the digit ratio (2D:4D) in more than 200 subjects. In males, salivary testosterone is negatively correlated with risk aversion for gains only. In females, salivary cortisol is positively correlated with risk aversion for gains only. No other significant correlations between risk preferences and salivary hormones are observed. No significant correlations between risk preferences and the menstrual cycle are observed in naturally cycling females. No significant correlations between risk preferences and the digit ratio are observed in either gender and/or race. Females who use hormonal contraceptives are more likely to make "consistent" choices although this may be due to a selection effect. Risk aversion is positively correlated with being female for losses only.
