AI Article Synopsis
- The study examined the impact of aerobic exercise on heart lipid metabolism in rats fed a high-fat diet.
- Fifty-five male Wistar rats were divided into five groups, with some undergoing swimming exercises and others on different diets to measure various health indicators over six weeks.
- Results showed that aerobic exercise significantly reduced harmful biochemical markers and improved beneficial lipid profiles in rats on high-fat diets compared to control groups.
Article Abstract
Objective: To study the effects of aerobic exercise combined with on on some indicators of myocardial lipid metabolism in rats with high-fat diet.
Methods: Fifty-five male Wistar rats were subjected to adaptive feeding for 4 days and weight-free swimming training for 3 days, 20 min/d. After eliminating 5 rats that were not suitable for swimming training, the others were randomly divided into 5 groups according to their weight: regular diet + quiet control group (RDC), high fat diet + quiet control group (HDC), high-fat diet + quiet control group (HDLC), high fat diet + aerobic exercise group (HDM), high fat diet + + aerobic exercise group (HDLM), 10 in each group. Group HDM and HDLM did 60 min/d swimming training for 6 weeks with no-bearing. Group C were fed regular diet; The other groups were fed with high-fat diet; Group HDLC and HDLM were intragastrically treated with at the dose of 4.48 g/(kg·d), and the volume was 5 mL/kg, and the other groups were given equivalent distilled water. The Lee's index, serum and myocardial biochemical indexes were measured after 6 weeks.
Results: Compared with group RDC, Lee's index, serum free fatty acids (FFA), interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), myocardial FFA and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) increased significantly (＜0.01), serum level of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) decreased significantly (＜0.01) in group HDC. Compared with group HDC, Lee's index, serum FFA, IL-6, TNF-α, TC, TG, LDL-C, myocardial FFA and ICAM-1 decreased significantly (＜0.05 or ＜0.01), serum HDL-C levels increased significantly (＜0.05 or ＜0.01) in group HDLC, HDM and HDLM. Compared with group HDLC and HDM, Lee's index, serum FFA, IL-6, TNF-α, TC, TG, LDL-C, myocardial FFA and ICAM-1 decreased significantly (＜0.05), serum HDL-C level increased significantly (＜0.05) in group HDLM.
Conclusion: Aerobic exercise and/or can improve lipid metabolism in rats with high-fat diet, reduce lipotoxicity caused by obesity. Combined intervention is more effective.

Background: The health benefits of physical activity, including walking, are well-established, but the relationship between daily step count and mortality in hypertensive populations remains underexplored. This study investigates the association between daily step count and both all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in hypertensive American adults.
Methods: We used data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2005-2006, including 1,629 hypertensive participants with accelerometer-measured step counts.

Sacroiliac joint (SIJ) pain is one of the most prevalent reasons for disability, it affects the contraction ratio of the muscles of the back. Imaging is critical for diagnosing back muscles. The purpose of this study was to look at changes in the muscle contraction ratio of the lumbar multifidus (LM) and erector spinae (ES) in unilateral SIJ pain.

Over 50% of individuals with lower limb loss report a fear of falling and avoiding daily activities partly due to a lack of plantar sensation. Providing direct somatosensory feedback via neural stimulation holds promise for addressing this issue. In this study, three individuals with lower limb loss received a sensory neuroprosthesis (SNP) that provided plantar somatosensory feedback corresponding to prosthesis-floor interactions perceived as arising from the missing foot generated by electrically activating the peripheral nerves in the residuum.
