Background: Acute exercise in the heat has been shown to reduce appetite. However, the influence of exercise in the cold on appetite regulation remains unclear. The aim of this study was to compare exercise-induced appetite regulation under three different environmental temperatures.
Methods: Eleven male participants completed three experimental trials on the following separate days: exercise in the heat (36 °C), exercise at neutral temperature (24 °C), and exercise in the cold (12 °C). The exercise trials consisted of pedaling exercises for 30 min at 65% of maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max). Blood samples were collected repeatedly to determine plasma ghrelin, peptide YY (PYY) and other hormonal concentrations. Subjective feelings of hunger and tympanic temperature were also monitored.
Results: Tympanic temperature was significantly higher in the 36 °C trial than that of the other two trials (P < 0.05). The subjective feelings of hunger in the 36 °C and 24 °C trials were significantly lower than those in the 12 °C trial (P < 0.05). Plasma ghrelin concentration decreased significantly with exercise in all conditions (P < 0.05), and the responses were not significantly different among the three conditions. Plasma PYY concentration increased significantly after the exercise in the 24 °C trial only (P < 0.05), with no significant difference among the three trials.
Conclusions: These results suggest that exposure to hot or cold temperatures during exercise did not affect exercise-induced plasma ghrelin and PYY responses. However, the exercise-induced reduction of subjective hunger was significantly attenuated in a cold environment.

: Vascular calcification (VC) is a crucial risk factor for cardiovascular diseases (CVD), particularly in chronic kidney disease (CKD) populations. However, the specific relationship between VC and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis (PD) remains to be fully understood. The identification of new biomarkers to improve VC diagnosis and monitoring would significantly impact cardiovascular risk management in these high-risk patients.

Millions of individuals who have limited or no functional speech use augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) technology to participate in daily life and exercise the human right to communication. While advances in AAC technology lag significantly behind those in other technology sectors, mainstream technology innovations such as artificial intelligence (AI) present potential for the future of AAC. However, a new future of AAC will only be as effective as it is responsive to the needs and dreams of the people who rely upon it every day.

Influence of Exercise and Genistein to Mitigate the Deleterious Effects of High-Fat High-Sugar Diet on Alzheimer's Disease-Related Markers in Male Mice.

Article Synopsis
- The rising rates of obesity, insulin resistance, and Alzheimer's-like symptoms are linked to lifestyle changes, including poor diet and lack of exercise.
- A study used a high-fat high-sugar mouse model to explore how exercise training, genistein treatment, and their combination affect neurodegeneration-related proteins in the brain.
- Findings show that both exercise alone and genistein alone can reduce obesity and neurodegenerative markers, with the combined approach providing the most significant neuroprotective effects.
