BACKGROUND Chronic inflammatory diseases strike millions of people all over the world, and exercise is often prescribed for these patients to improve overall fitness and quality of life. In healthy individuals, acute and chronic exercise is known to alter inflammatory markers; however, less is known about these effects in patients with a chronic inflammatory disease. OBJECTIVE The purpose of ...

Severe physical activity leads to a sharp increase in free radicals, an oxidative stress, inflammation, and tissue damage. Resveratrol as one of the antioxidants can be effective in preventing the effects of oxidative stress. Therefore, the present study was aimed to evaluate the effect of trans-resveratrol supplementation and training exercise on inflammation-related factors. Sixty-four ...

The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of grape seed extract (GSE) supplementation on exercise performance and oxidative stress in acutely and chronically exercised rats. A total of sixty-four male rats were used in the study. Rats were divided into six groups: control, chronic exercise control, acute exercise control (AEC), GSE-supplemented control, GSE-supplemented chroni...

In healthy humans and rodents, chronic and acute exercise improves subsequent insulin sensitivity of skeletal muscle. A large animal species with similar metabolic responses to exercise would permit longitudinal studies, including repeated biopsies of muscle and other tissues not possible in rodents, and enable study of interactions with insulin-resistant physiological states not feasible in hu...

although it is well established that women are more likely to sustain certain connective tissue injuries than men during physical activities, this difference between males and females is not clear. gelatinases degrade components of tendon tissue. thus, in this research, the effects of gender on serum gelatinases (mmp-2 and mmp-9) at rest and in response to acute endurance exercise were investig...

background: supplementation usage approach and its effect on fatigue retarding had been focused on by athletes and coaches. the aim of this study was to compare the effect of two acute and chronic loading of sodium bicarbonate supplement on lactate and inflammatory indices after exhaustive aerobic activity in active men. method s : 10 active men were selected and assigned to experimental group....

hemorheology specialists believe that athletes of different sport fields have different hemorheological patterns. the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of sport field on hemorheological variables following acute aerobic exercise. athletes were divided into three groups of 15 subjects (endurance runners: mean±sd: age 24.6±5.2 yr, bf% 6.8±1.6, bmi 21±1; football players: age 22.5±1....

Research on the acute effects of exercise on cognitive performance by older adults is limited by a focus on nonhealthy populations. Furthermore, the duration of cognitive improvements after exercise has not been examined. Thus, this study was designed to test the immediate and delayed effects of acute exercise on cognitive performance of healthy older adults. Cognitive performance was assessed ...

Exercise training is an effective way to improve exercise capacity in chronic kidney disease (CKD), but the underlying mechanisms are only partly understood. In healthy subjects (HS), microRNA (miRNA or miR) are dynamically regulated following exercise and have, therefore, been suggested as regulators of cardiovascular adaptation to exercise. However, these effects were not studied in CKD befor...
