Clinical Outcomes Following a Change in Gestational Diabetes Mellitus Diagnostic Criteria Due to the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Case-Control Study.

Background: Due to COVID-19, many centres adopted a change to the diagnosis of GDM.

Methods: A case-control study of antenatal patients between 1 April and 30 June in 2019 and 2020 looking at detection rates of GDM, use of medication, obstetric, and fetal outcomes.

Results: During COVID-19, the rate of positive GDM tests approximately halved (20% (42/210) in 2020 vs.

Higher fat oxidation during treadmill walking versus cycle ergometry in active women at equal RPE: a pilot study.

Background: Muscle degrades fat and carbohydrate (CHO) during exercise to meet the demand for ATP. Factors including exercise intensity/duration and fitness level are recognized as primary determinants of the relative contribution of these macronutrients to substrate metabolism, although exercise mode has also been identified. The aim of this study was to determine potential differences in substrate metabolism during treadmill (TM) and cycle ergometer (CE) exercise performed at equal rating of perceived exertion (RPE).

Attenuated RPE and leg pain in response to short-term high-intensity interval training.

This study examined the effect of 6 days of high intensity interval training (HIT) on rating of perceived exertion (RPE) and leg pain. Eleven men (age and VO(2)max=25.3±5.

Adaptations to high-intensity training are independent of gender.

The purpose of this study was to identify potential gender discrepancies in adaptation to low-volume high-intensity interval training (HIT). Active, young men (n = 11, age = 25.3 ± 5.
