background heat shock protein 72 (hsp72) is responsible for maintaining critical cellular function during heat stress. hsp72 confers thermotolerance and may play a role in heat acclimation. animal research suggests a difference between sexes in hsp72 expression in response to exercise, however, human data is lacking. conclusion our findings suggest that men and women differ in their cellular st...

Proper understanding of age and sex particularities in the growing generation is of the greatest importance for a correct physical education curriculum, both as regards training and scientific approach. In our days, no pedagogue or scientist questions the value of physical education in the upbringing of our youth. Only a few people here and there talk of ‘sparing the children, particularly at p...

Muscular exercise imposes the most potent sustained stress to cellular energetics. At work rates below the anaerobic threshold (i.e. no sustained lactic acidosis), the ventilatory and cardiovascular responses regulate arterial PCO2, [H+] and PO2 at or close to their resting levels in the steady state. However, dynamic forcing and systems-analytic techniques reveal two phases of the non-steady-s...

The occurrence of ventricular arrhythniias during exercise testing, jogging, and sedentary life with and without preceding exercise was studied with the aid of ambulatory electrocardiographic monitoring in healthy physically active men, healthy sedentary men, and men with previous myocardial infarction (15 men in each group). Ventricular premature beats of the same grade were found during exerc...

a periodic increase in blood pressure (bp) occurs during apneic episodes in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (osa). several factors including hypoxemia and an increase in heart rate (hr) were reported to be responsible for this increased bp. to examine the contribution of these two factors in increasing bp, 35 healthy male subjects (mean age±sd= 23.64±3.80) were studied in three experiment...

objective(s): the purpose of this study was to investigate effects of short-term aerobic exercise on energy intake, appetite and energy-regulating hormones in free-living men and women.   materials and methods: sixteen (eight men, eight women) sedentary young normal weight subjects participated in two experimental conditions with two days apart: five days control with no exercise, and five days...
