AI Article Synopsis
- Bacterial skin infections like impetigo, folliculitis, cellulitis, and pitted keratolysis can occur as uncomfortable side effects of exercising.
- Proper treatment, including topical medications and, if necessary, systemic therapy, is essential for addressing these infections.
- Effective treatment ensures that individuals can safely continue their physical activities without risking skin health.
Article Abstract
In Brief Bacterial skin infections can be unpleasant side effects of exercise; among them are impetigo, folliculitis, cellulitis, and pitted keratolysis. Instituting the right combination of topical treatments and, when needed, systemic therapy can make a patient's skin safe for activity.

Moderate- and High-Speed Treadmill Running Exercise Have Minimal Impact on Rat Achilles Tendon.
J Orthop Res
December 2024
McKay Orthopaedic Laboratory, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA.
Exercise influences clinical Achilles tendon health in humans, but animal models of exercise-related Achilles tendon changes are lacking. Moreover, previous investigations of the effects of treadmill running exercise on rat Achilles tendon demonstrate variable outcomes. Our objective was to assess the functional, structural, cellular, and biomechanical impacts of treadmill running exercise on rat Achilles tendon with sensitive in and ex vivo approaches.

JAMA Surg
July 2024
National Heart and Lung Institute, Imperial College London, London, United Kingdom.
Importance: Unlike medications, procedural interventions are rarely trialed against placebo prior to becoming accepted in clinical practice. When placebo-controlled trials are eventually conducted, procedural interventions may be less effective than previously believed.
Objective: To investigate the importance of including a placebo arm in trials of surgical and interventional procedures by comparing effect sizes from trials of the same procedure that do and do not include a placebo arm.
The Utility of a Novel Electrocardiogram Patch Using Dry Electrodes Technology for Arrhythmia Detection During Exercise and Prolonged Monitoring: Proof-of-Concept Study.
JMIR Form Res
November 2023
Department of Cardiology, Máxima MC Eindhoven/Veldhoven, Veldhoven, Netherlands.
Background: Accurate detection of myocardial ischemia and arrhythmias during free-living exercise could play a pivotal role in screening and monitoring for the prevention of exercise-related cardiovascular events in high-risk populations. Although remote electrocardiogram (ECG) solutions are emerging rapidly, existing technology is neither designed nor validated for continuous use during vigorous exercise.
Objective: In this proof-of-concept study, we evaluated the usability, signal quality, and accuracy for arrhythmia detection of a single-lead ECG patch platform featuring self-adhesive dry electrode technology in individuals with chronic coronary syndrome.

The human microbiota is comprised of more than 10-100 trillion microbial and symbiotic cells. Two major human sites that are host to microbial communities are the gut and the skin. Physical exercise has favorable effects on the structure of human microbiota and metabolite production in sedentary subjects.
