A home-based treadmill training reduced epicardial and abdominal fat in postmenopausal women with metabolic syndrome.

Introduction: The current study was designed to determine the effect of home-based treadmill training on epicardial and abdominal adipose tissue in postmenopausal women with metabolic syndrome (MS). A secondary objective was to identify significant correlations between imaging and conventional anthropometric parameters.

Material And Methods: Sixty postmenopausal women with MS volunteered for the current trial.

Anti-inflammatory effect of exercise, via reduced leptin levels, in obese women with Down syndrome.

Recent studies have reported that obese young people with Down syndrome suffer from low-grade systemic inflammation. Whereas this condition may be improved in the general population by regular exercise, the problem has received no attention in the case of people with intellectual disability. Therefore, the authors' aim was to assess the influence of aerobic training on plasma adipokines in obese women with Down syndrome.

A 6-week training program increased muscle antioxidant system in elderly diabetic fatty rats.

Background: It is widely accepted that oxidative stress is associated with the physiopathology of type 2 diabetes mellitus. In fact, it has been pointed out as a therapeutic target in T2DM. Fortunately, several papers have reported that long-term training programs improved the antioxidant system in young and adult diabetic rats.
