Article Synopsis
- Resistance training may be less effective than endurance training in reducing plasma triglyceride (TG) levels, but a single session of either can improve VLDL-TG removal from the bloodstream.
- A study with seven young men found that high-intensity resistance exercise significantly lowered fasting plasma VLDL-TG levels and increased its clearance rate compared to low-intensity endurance exercise.
- Given the same energy expenditure, resistance exercise proved to be more effective than endurance exercise at improving VLDL-TG metabolism, suggesting it could be a key strategy for managing plasma TG concentrations.
Article Synopsis
- A single session of intense endurance exercise can significantly lower blood triglyceride levels the following day by improving how the body clears VLDL-TG (a type of fat) from the bloodstream.*
- A study involving sedentary young men showed that after two months of high-intensity interval training, there was a notable 28% reduction in fasting plasma VLDL-TG levels, with changes linked to decreased production from the liver rather than increased clearance from the blood.*
- The research implies that regular high-intensity aerobic exercise can lower triglyceride levels over time, but the exact mechanisms and effects of different types of exercise still need further exploration.*
A single bout of prolonged aerobic exercise lowers plasma TAG (triacylglycerol) concentrations the next day by increasing the efficiency of VLDL (very-low-density lipoprotein)-TAG removal from the circulation. The effect of resistance exercise on VLDL-TAG metabolism is not known. Therefore we evaluated VLDL-TAG kinetics by using stable isotope-labelled tracers in eight healthy untrained men (age, 25.

J Exp Clin Cancer Res
September 2001
B-PLL has not been often associated with diffuse skin involvement or oral lesions. We present a 32 year-old woman in whom skin and gingival manifestations were the prominent clinical signs of disease relapse.

Penile squamous cell carcinoma arising from balanitis xerotica obliterans is rarely reported. We describe a 58-year-old man in whom penile squamous cell carcinoma developed after 25 years of observation for balanitis xerotica obliterans. It is important to recognize the possibility of this uncommon complication of balanitis xerotica obliterans, because survival of patients with squamous cell carcinoma depends on early diagnosis and treatment.
