Background and Objective: Nesfatin-1 is an effective peptide in the regulation of energy balance. The aim of this research was investigation of the effects of resistance training with and without testosterone injection on plasma levels of nesfatin-1 in adult male rats. Materials and Methods: For this purpose, 40 Wistar rats with a weight range of 205 to 265 g and aged approximately 10 weeks ...

 Background & Objective:  Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of combined training (aerobic-resistance) on serum levels of insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) and insulin-like growth factor-binding proteins 3 (IGFBP-3) in men with prostate cancer.  Materials & Methods:  20 eligible men with prostate cancer with an average age...

1. to determine whether difference in birth body mass influenced growth performance in pipistrellus kuhlii we studied a total of 12 captive-born neonates. bats were assigned to two body mass groups: light birth body mass (lbw: 0.89 ± 0.05, n=8) and heavy birth body mass (hbw: 1.35 ± 0.08, n=4). heavier body mass at birth was associated with rapid postnatal growth (body mass and forearm length) ...

Background : Leptin resistance is one of the most influential Insulinoma hyper market factors and the absence of glucose in being overweight is associated with disease. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of aerobic exercise, resistance exercise on serum leptin and insulin resistance index in sedentary men. Materials and Methods: The research method was experimental in which ...

Background: The purpose of this study was to compare effects of three combined aerobic-resistance exercise training protocols with different intensities on metabolic control and Visfatin levels in men with type 2 diabetes. Methods: 43 male patients with type 2 diabetes were randomly divided into 4 groups (three combined aerobic-resistance exercise training groups 1, 2, 3 and control). Training...
