visfatin is a newly discovered adipokine which increases along with obesity. it is not clear whether rhythmic aerobic endurance exercise training which induces changes in adipose tissue and blood lipid might decrease the plasma visfatin level. the aim of this study was to examine the effect of rhythmic aerobic endurance exercise training on rest visfatin levels some metabolic risk factors in ob...

Recent research involving human and animals has shown that aerobic exercise of moderate intensity produces the greatest benefit on brain health and behavior. In this study we investigated the effects on cognitive function and anxiety-related behavior in rats at different ages of aerobic exercise, performed regularly throughout life. We designed an aerobic training program with the treadmill run...

Objective: Standard compression stockings are used to create elastic pressure in correcting and maintaining the hemodynamics of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and prevent limb swelling in patients with DVT. This study aimed to compare the effect of aerobic exercise with lower extremity elastic pressure on some hematological features of obese patients with DVT. Materials and Methods: For this purpo...

BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of combined exercise training on growth hormone (GH), insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), and metabolic-syndrome factors and determine whether the changes in GH and/or IGF-1 induced by exercise correlate to the metabolic-syndrome factors in healthy middle-aged women (50-65 years of age). METHODS The participants were randomly a...

Aims: The aim of this study examined the acute effects of exhaustive incremental exercise on serum leptin, glucose and lactate in one session in trained men 18-26 years old. Materials and Methods: Thirty students who had 18-26 years old, body fat between 15-25 percent and VO2max between 35-45 ml/kg/min, simple randomly selected through 200 physical education students and they were divided into...

the aim of the present study was to examine the effects of a course of aerobic exercise on pulmonary function and tolerance of activity in asthmatic patients. among the asthmatic patients, 36 patients (m= 16, f= 20) were chosen after clinical examinations, pulmonary function test, skin prick test (spt) for aeroallergen and a six minute walk test (6mwt) on their own free will. a patient was said...

despite the preventative and therapeutic effects of regular exercise, exhaustive exercise may be harmful to health. the present study aimed to determine the protective effect of endurance training and cinnamon bark extract (cbe) supplementation on oxidative responses induced by an exhaustive exercise schedule in rats. the rats were randomly divided into the following five groups of 6; control s...
