PURPOSE there is evidence suggesting that physical activity has anti-inflammatory effects in many chronic diseases; however, the role of exercise in airway inflammation in asthma is poorly understood. We aimed to evaluate the effects of an aerobic training program on eosinophil inflammation (primary aim) and nitric oxide (secondary aim) in patients with moderate or severe persistent asthma. M...

This study investigated if there were acute interference effects of strength exercises on subsequent continuous and intermittent 5Km aerobic exercises. Eleven physically active males (23.1 ± 3.1 yrs, 1.75 ± 0.07 m, 70.5 ± 8.8 kg, and 58.2 ± 8.3 VO2max) performed the following experimental sessions: A) 5 sets of 5 RM on the leg press followed by a 5km run performed continuously (average velocity...

Cardiovascular diseases is one of the most important causes of mortality in the world obesity is one of the causes. Increase in blood lipid and triglyceride cholestrole is significant in over weights. The aim of this study was assessing the effect of periodic aerobic exercises on lipid profile of obese woman. This study which was a semi – experimental research, 30 volunter obese woman (age 35-4...

BACKGROUND Although schizophrenia is the fifth leading cause of disability-adjusted life years worldwide in people aged 15 to 44 years, the clinical evidence of physical therapy as a complementary treatment remains largely unknown. PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to systematically review randomized controlled trials (RCTs) evaluating the effectiveness of physical therapy for people with...

We tested whether the known cytochrome c oxidase (COX) inhibition by nitric oxide (NO) could be quantified by VO 2 kinetics during constant load supra-Anaerobic Threshold (AT) exercises in healthy trained or untrained subjects following aerobic training or nitrate administration. In cycle ergometer constant load exercises supra-AT, identified in previous incremental tests, VO 2 kinetics describ...

OBJECTIVE To examine the effect of 6 months of high- or low-intensity resistance exercise on aerobic capacity and treadmill time to exhaustion in adults aged 60 to 83 years. METHODS Sixty-two men and women completed the study protocol. Subjects were matched for strength and randomly assigned to a control (n = 16), low-intensity exercise (LEX, n = 24), or high-intensity exercise (HEX, n = 22) ...

background: the most common reproductive endocrine disorder of reproductive age women is a poly cystic ovary syndrome (pcos) metabolic syndrome has been more reported in patients with pcos in comparison to general population. few investigations have been performed to evaluate the independent effect of exercise on biochemical and clinical symptoms of patients with pcos. the aim of the study was ...

Years of training, practice and unique skills are required for a Fighter pilot to perform demanding challenging operations in technologically cutting-edge aircraft. To provide concise overview physical fitness, muscle cross-sectional area (CSA) GZexposure their interaction fighter pilots. A search PubMed, CINHAL, Google scholar database was conducted find relevant studies pertaining pilots, cer...

PURPOSE Physical exercise and cognitive training have been shown to enhance cognition among older adults. However, few studies have looked at the potential synergetic effects of combining physical and cognitive training in a single study. Prior trials on combined training have led to interesting yet equivocal results. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of combined physical and cog...

BACKGROUND Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is one of the common complications that occur during pregnancy. Early intervention is essential to prevent the development of the disease in the non-pregnant state but also helpful in preventing the occurrence of GDM. The aim of the study was to assess the effect of aerobic exercises on insulin sensitivity and fasting plasma glucose level in pregna...
