Effects of High-Intensity Interval Vs. Moderate-Intensity Continuous Training on Body Composition and Gene Expression of ACE2, NLRP3, and FNDC5 in Obese Adults: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

Obesity is considered a multisystem disease associated with higher mortality and morbidity in adults. This study explored the effects of two Moderate-Intensity Continuous Training (MICT) and High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) on body composition, maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max), and the gene expression of angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), fibronectin type III domain-containing protein 5 (FNDC5), and NLR family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) in adults with obesity. In a randomized controlled trial, 36 obese, inactive subjects (age: 45.

Determination of CRP blood level in type 1 diabetic patients and the effect of aerobic and resistance training on the level of this biomarker.

Background: Increasing prevalence of diabetes and its complications, including cardiovascular problems, increase the cost of health care. With proper planning to change lifestyle, like costs and complications of type 1 diabetes could be diminished. The present study investigated the effect of aerobic and resistance training on blood CRP level of type 1 diabetic patients as a protective marker on cardiovascular cells.

Swimming training combined with chitosan supplementation reduces the development of obesity and oxidative stress in high-fat diet-fed mice.

Obesity is often introduced as one of the metabolic disorders caused by imbalance between energy consumption and metabolisable energy intake. Experts in the field considered obesity as one of the robust risk factors for the lifestyle-associated diseases. The present research examined interventional effects of marine chitosan (CS), swimming training (ST) and combination of CS and ST (CS + ST) in the mice fed with high-fat diets (HFD).

A Comparison of the Effect of Two Types of Continuous and Discontinuous Aerobic Exercise on Patients' Stem Cell Mobilization before Autologous Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation.

Transplant success largely depends on the number of hematopoietic stem cells. The release of catecholamines following exercise can, as a treatment in addition to medication, affect the mobilization of stem cells from the bone marrow into the peripheral blood. The aim of the present study is to compare two types of aerobic exercise on stem cell mobilization before autologous transplantation.

Modeling the resistance mechanism of passive knee joint flexion and extension for use in rehabilitation equipment.

The purpose of this study was to model the resistance mechanism of Passive Knee Joint Flexion and Extension to create a similar torque mechanism in rehabilitation equipment. In order to better model the behavior of passive knee tissues, it is necessary to exactly calculate the two coefficients of elasticity of time-independent and time-dependent parts. Ten healthy male volunteers (mean height 176.

Effect of viscoelastic properties on passive torque variations at different velocities of the knee joint extension and flexion movements.

This study aimed to investigate the rate of passive torque variations of human knee joint in the different velocities of knee flexion and extension movements. Ten healthy men were invited to participate in the tests. All passive torque tests were performed for the knee joint extension and flexion on the sagittal plane in three different angular velocities of 15, 45, and 120°/s; in 5 consecutive cycles; and within 0° to 100° range of motion.

Altered Neural Response Induced by Central-Fatigue in the Cortical Area During High-Intensity Interval Pedaling.

Introduction: The central-governor model explains the mechanism of endurance exercise-induced central fatigue, but high-intensity exercise-induced central fatigue has not been investigated yet. This study aimed to research how central fatigue during high-intensity intermittent pedaling alters the neural response, which results in Electroencephalography (EEG) recordings.

Methods: We assessed neural response by measuring the alternation of brainwave spectral power during an intermittent high-intensity 60-minute exercise on an ergometer cycle.

Influence of MLC901 Alone and with Moderate Exercise on Pain Response Concurrent Due to Stress of Male Mice.

Background: Physical exercise is known to have a positive effect on pain responses induced by stress, while chronic stress causes a negative effect on cognitive abilities. Depending on the type, duration, and intensity of the stressor, it can induce analgesia or hyperalgesia. Furthermore, the beneficial effects of traditional Chinese medicine MLC901 on stress processes have been reported.

Prevalence of Cardiovascular Disorders Among Iranian Elite Athletes.

Background: Athletes' health is an important issue and for promoting it, pre-participation examination (PPE) is widely performed by responsible bodies around the world.

Objectives: This study was to determine prevalence of cardiovascular disorders among athletes participating in the Asian games and answering the question whether the electrocardiogram (ECG) is a necessary part of pre-participation examination (PPE) for prevention of sudden cardiac death.

Materials And Methods: All athletes participated at Asian games came to sports medicine federation for a PPE including a comprehensive questionnaire, physical examination and ECG.

Effects of amplitudes of whole-body vibration training on left ventricular stroke volume and ejection fraction in healthy young men.

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of different whole-body vibration (WBV) training amplitudes on left ventricular stroke volume and ejection fraction in healthy young men.

Methods: A total of 24 healthy men (age 21.71±1.

Effects of whole-body vibration training on fibrinolytic and coagulative factors in healthy young men.

Background: The aim was to evaluate effects of 5-week whole body vibration (WBV) training with different amplitudes and progressive frequencies on fibrinolytic/coagulative factors.

Materials And Methods: 25 subjects were divided randomly in high or low-amplitude vibration, and control groups. Training consisted of 5-week WBV with amplitudes 4 or 2 mm.
