Physical Conditioning and Functional Injury-Screening Profile of Elite Female Soccer Players: A Systematic Review.

Purpose: To identify the physical conditioning and functional injury-screening characteristics of elite female soccer players.

Methods: This review was prospectively registered (PROSPERO CRD4202346765). Searches were conducted in PubMed/MEDLINE, Cochrane Library, Scopus, and Web of Science (from inception in March 2023 to July 2023).

Reassembling the Field-based Applicability of the Lactate Threshold for Old Age.

This study aimed to investigate the applicability of the Lactate Threshold (LT) to predict maximal oxygen uptake (˙VO) and demarcate the boundary between the to intensity domain (HR) in old age in comparison to the most utilized methods. A cross-sectional validation study was conducted. Participants aged 61 to 77 performed a familiarization procedure, an incremental maximal exercise treadmill test (CPX) for ˙VO determination, the (6MWT), and a discontinuous incremental field test for LT determination.

Supervised multicomponent exercise as an adjuvant program for people with unilateral and/or bilateral chronic vestibular hypofunction: EXERVEST study protocol.

Background: Unilateral and bilateral peripheral vestibular hypofunction (UVH and BVH) often complains of dizziness, gaze, and balance disturbances. There is a lack of evidence on exercise intervention in UVH and BVH patients. To investigate the effect of an eight-week supervised multicomponent exercise program in people suffering from UVH or BVH in comparison with a control group doing conventional vestibular rehabilitation at home.

Physical activity on cardiorespiratory fitness and cardiovascular risk in premenopausal and postmenopausal women: a systematic review of randomized controlled trials.

Importance: The apparent cardioprotective effects of endogenous estrogens to prevent cardiovascular disease in premenopausal women are reduced with the loss of estrogen post-menopause. Cardiorespiratory fitness and cardiovascular risk factors are closely related to physical activity levels.

Objective: This study conducted a critical assessment of studies for health prevention that analyze the effects of physical activity programs on cardiorespiratory fitness and cardiovascular risk factors in women, comparing premenopausal and postmenopausal states, through a systematic review of randomized controlled trials.
