Published: September 2003

The possible contribution of muscular work to the increase in oxygen uptake ( VO(2)) over time during running was investigated on 11 adult males who were asked to run until exhaustion at 90 (3)% [mean (SD)] of their maximal aerobic velocity on a treadmill ergometer. Ground reaction forces, expired gases and EMG from leg muscles were collected for 30 s at min 3 and during the last minute of the run. Subjects ran for 829 (165) s and showed an increase in VO(2 )of 179 (93) ml.min(-1) between min 3 and exhaustion. Increased ventilation explained 41 (27)% of the increase in VO(2). Stride frequency slightly decreased but no significant differences were found in the mechanical work or in integrated EMG. It was concluded that, in running, the increase in VO(2 )could not be related to a drift in muscle work.

Background: Insulin resistance (IR) is central to the progression of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (MAFLD). While aerobic exercise reduces hepatic fat and enhances insulin sensitivity, the specific mechanisms-particularly those involving exosomal pathways-are not fully elucidated.

Method: Exosomes were isolated from 15 MAFLD patients' plasma following the final session of a 12-week aerobic exercise intervention.

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic neurological condition resulting in decreased aerobic capacity (peak VO). The hemodynamic responses to peak exercise in MS are unknown. Further, it is unknown if the hemodynamic responses are due to disease or fitness.

Stroke Volume Augmentation Improves with PH-Targeted Therapy in Patients with Exercise-Induced Pulmonary Hypertension.

Unlabelled: Exercise-induced pulmonary arterial hypertension (EiPH) is often treated with off-label use of pulmonary arterial hypertension-targeted therapy (PH-targeted therapy). Most measures of PAH severity are normal in patients with EiPH, posing challenges in evaluating for physiological improvement in patients treated for EiPH. In this study, we used non-invasive cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) to assess for objective improvement in patients treated for EiPH.

Vanadium-based materials, which offer multiple oxidation states and rich redox reactions in zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs), have gained substantial attention. However, achieving green and efficient preparation of vanadium oxides-based materials featured with a controlled content of different heterovalent vanadium remains a significant challenge. Herein, a vanadium-supramolecular flower-shaped material (VSF) with heterovalent vanadium was prepared using NHVO as vanadium metal center and hexamethylenetetramine as organic ligand in aqueous solution.

Novel Selectivity: Target of Gas Sensing Defined by Behavior.

Adv Mater

December 2024

Institute of Multidisciplinary Research for Advanced Materials (IMRAM), Tohoku University, Sendai, 980-8577, Japan.

Traditional selectivity of gas sensors determined by the magnitude of the response value has significant limitations. The distinctive inversion sensing behavior not only defies the traditional sensing theory but also provides insight into defining selectivity. Herein, the novel definition of selectivity is established in a study with VO(M1).
