Recommended daily exercise for Japanese does not increase the protein requirement in sedentary young men.
In a previous study, we reported that protein intake at the level of dietary protein allowance for Japanese adults, i.e. 1.08 g/kg per day, was enough for recommended daily exercise. However, whether or not recommended daily exercise increases the protein requirement for young adults has not been examined. In this study, we investigated the effect of recommended daily exercise on the protein re...
متن کاملCalcineurin does not mediate exercise-induced increase in muscle GLUT4.
Exercise induces a rapid increase in expression of the GLUT4 isoform of the glucose transporter in skeletal muscle. One of the signals responsible for this adaptation appears to be an increase in cytosolic Ca(2+). Myocyte enhancer factor 2A (MEF2A) is a transcription factor that is involved in the regulation of GLUT4 expression. It has been reported that the Ca(2+)-regulated phosphatase calcine...
متن کاملCOPD exacerbations in general practice: variability in oral prednisolone courses
BACKGROUND The use of oral corticosteroids as treatment of COPD exacerbations in primary care is well established and evidence-based. However, the most appropriate dosage regimen has not been determined and remains controversial. Corticosteroid therapy is associated with a number of undesirable side effects, including hyperglycaemias, so differences in prescribing might be relevant. This study ...
متن کاملDoes prior exercise affect oral glucose tolerance test results?
Background When oral glucose tolerance tests (OGTT) are repeated in individuals, relatively large variations in the magnitude of the blood glucose response often occur from one measurement occasion to another. Little is known about what causes this within-subject variability. One potential contributor may be the subject's prior extent of physical activity and/or the amount of stored glycogen pr...
متن کاملDoes oral prednisolone increase the efficacy of subsequent nasal steroids in treating nasal polyposis?
BACKGROUND Although combined oral and nasal steroid therapy is widely used in nasal polyposis, a subset of patients show an unfavorable therapeutic outcome. This study aimed to evaluate whether oral prednisolone produces any additive effects on subsequent nasal steroid therapy and to evaluate if any clinical variables can predict therapeutic outcome. METHODS Using a 3:2 randomization ratio, ...
