The purpose of this study was to find the effect of endurance training and thiamine supplementation on anti-fatigue during the exercise. Each nine students from K Women's University went through three cross-over treatments: placebo treatment, training treatment and thiamine treatment. Training treatment was performed with bicycle ergometer exercise for four weeks (five days per week). Each exer...

Exercise training has been established as an adjuvant therapy in patients with heart failure (HF) due its broad spectrum of effects including improvement of exercise tolerance, quality of life and survival [1,2]. However, some HF patients show limited improvement in exercise capacity after performing exercise training programs. This is an important point because lack of benefit to exercise trai...

coronary artery disease (cad) is the number one killer of adults in the iran. fibrinogen is cad risk factor that participation in both the atherogenic and thrombogenic processes. also playing a role in thrombosis and atherogenesis is homocysteine, as a risk factor for cad. long-term exercise training and physical activity favorably modified several of the conventional cad risk factors. no such ...

Evidence suggests that physical activity has a beneficial effect of elevated high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) on reducing coronary artery risk. However, previous studies show contrasting results for this association between different types of exercise training (i.e., aerobic, resistance, or combined aerobic and resistance training). The aim of this study was to determine which type ...

Both antioxidant supplementation and exercise training have been identified as interventions which may reduce oxidative stress and thus improve cardiovascular health, but the interaction of these interventions on arterial BP (blood pressure) and vascular function has not been studied in older humans. Thus in six older (71+/-2 years) mildly hypertensive men, arterial BP was evaluated non-invasiv...

The aim of this study was to investigate whether endurance training improves lipid mobilization and oxidation in overweight subjects. Eleven young men (25.6 +/- 1.4 yr and body mass index 27.7 +/- 0.2) performed a 4-mo training program consisting of practicing aerobic exercise 5 days/wk. Before and after the training period, lipid oxidation was explored during a 60-min exercise at 50% of peak O...

Pulmonary rehabilitation programmes aim at improving exercise capacity, activities of daily living, quality of life and perhaps survival in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Recently, well-designed studies investigated and confirmed the efficacy of comprehensive pulmonary rehabilitation programmes, including exercise training, breathing exercises, optimal medical treat...

Genetic factors determining exercise capacity and the magnitude of the response to exercise training are poorly understood. The aim of this study was to identify quantitative trait loci (QTL) associated with exercise training in mice. Based on marked differences in training responses in inbred NZW (-0.65 ± 1.73 min) and 129S1 (6.18 ± 3.81 min) mice, a reciprocal intercross breeding scheme was u...

We tested the hypothesis that acute post-exercise change in blood pressure (BP) may predict exercise training responses in BP in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Patients with CAD (n = 116, age 62 ± 5 years, 85 men) underwent BP assessments at rest and during 10-min recovery following a symptom-limited exercise test before and after the 6-month training intervention (one strength an...
