Pyruvate ingestion for 7 days does not improve aerobic performance in well-trained individuals.
The purposes of the present studies were to test the hypotheses that lower dosages of oral pyruvate ingestion would increase blood pyruvate concentration and that the ingestion of a commonly recommended dosage of pyruvate (7 g) for 7 days would enhance performance during intense aerobic exercise in well-trained individuals. Nine recreationally active subjects (8 women, 1 man) consumed 7, 15, an...
متن کاملStrategies to Improve Alertness during Extended Deployments
During extended deployments there are a number of strategies available to increase alertness. The initial approach is to optimise work rest patterns and the tool being developed at QinetiQ will make this process simpler for commanders. The judicious use of naps is the second approach recommended. The choice of nap duration should take into account the problem of sleep inertia and allow sufficie...
متن کاملCaffeine does not entrain the circadian clock but improves daytime alertness in blind patients with non-24-hour rhythms
OBJECTIVE/BACKGROUND Totally blind individuals are highly likely to suffer from Non-24-Hour Sleep-Wake Disorder due to a failure of light to reset the circadian pacemaker in the suprachiasmatic nuclei. In this outpatient case series, we investigated whether daily caffeine administration could entrain the circadian pacemaker in non-entrained blind patients to alleviate symptoms of non-24-hour sl...
متن کاملCortisol secretion is related to electroencephalographic alertness in human subjects during daytime wakefulness.
To determine whether human hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal axis activity is related to the alertness level during wakefulness, 10 healthy young men were studied under resting conditions in the daytime (0900-1800 h) after an 8-h nighttime sleep (2300-0700 h). A serial 70-sec gaze fixation task was required every 10 min throughout the daytime experimental session. The corresponding waking electroen...
متن کاملEffects of theophylline on nocturnal sleep and daytime sleepiness/alertness.
To study the short-term effects of theophylline on sleep and wakefulness, 24 healthy men and women, aged 21 to 35 years, received each of three doses, 0, 3, and 6 mg/kg, of theophylline double-blind in a Latin Square design, administered to 12 subjects at 9 AM and to the other 12 at 11 PM. After the daytime administration, sleep latency was tested at 10 AM, 12 Noon, 2 PM, and 4 PM and divided a...
