AIM Female cardiac transplant recipients' aerobic capacity is 60% lower than sex and age-predicted values. The effect of exercise training on restoring the impaired aerobic endurance and muscle strength in female cardiac transplant recipients is not known. This study examined the effect that aerobic and strength training have on improving aerobic endurance and muscle strength in female cardiac ...

the aim of the present study was to examine the effect of aerobic training and green tea supplementation on serum leptin and insulin resistance in overweight and obese men. for this purpose, 43 overweight and obese men were selected voluntarily and were included in four groups: control (body mass index 31.4+3.7, vo2max 39.3+3.8 ml/kg.min), green tea supplement (body mass index, 30.3±2.8 k/m2, v...

The Cathra system is a commercial multipoint inoculation method for the identification of aerobic Gram negative bacteria. The system uses a replicator technique in which 21 different agar media can be inoculated simultaneously with 36 organisms. Identifications are made by use of a special computer database. The performance of this system was compared with that of the API 20E for the identifica...

Sixteen strains of aerobic bacteria which contain bacteriochlorophyll a were isolated from the samples collected in aerobic marine environments: thalli of Enteromorpha linza, Porphyra sp., Sargussum horneri; beach sand; and the surface seawater from Aburatsubo Inlet. When they occurred, their proportions among the aerobic heterotrophic populations ranged from 0.9 to 1.1% in the seaweed samples ...

conclusions we suggest that regular aerobic exercise can favorably alter the inflammatory profile, which is a known risk factor in breast cancer development, in postmenopausal women. patients and methods this study was a randomized controlled trial. we randomly assigned 41 postmenopausal, sedentary women aged 50 to 74 to either an exercise or a control group. the intervention involved facility-...

background: hypertension is one of the prevalent and dangerous complications of diabetes mellitus. as it is difficult to control hypertension, the necessity of using new techniques such as non-pharmaceutical methods and complementary therapy is doubled. this study aimed to determine the effect of aerobic exercise on the blood pressure of patients with type 2 diabetes. methods: this study was a ...

background & objectives: several epidemiological studies have indicated factors such as leptin level, adiponectin and plasma adiponectin-to-leptin index to be the predicting biomarkers for cardiovascular diseases. given the importance of healthy nutrition and adequate exercise in reducing the risk of atherosclerosis, this study aimed to investigate the effects of fasting and aerobic exercise on...
