background resistance exercise is recommended as a useful therapeutic tool for the treatment of type 2 diabetes (t2d); however, the frequency of studies is inadequate to establish the precise mechanisms of any association between them. objectives in this study, we aimed to assess the effect of three months of resistance training on tcf7l2 expression in pancreatic tissues, serum insulin and gluc...

abstract background and objective: it has been shown that oxidative stress increases in diabetes and it has an important role in its development and subsequent complications. thus, the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of acute resistance exercise on oxidative stress in skeletal muscle and cardiac tissues of streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. materials and methods: twenty male ...

results no significant changes were observed in serum potassium, phosphorus and calcium levels at the end of the passive exercise program compared to the baseline. however, phosphorus levels were significantly decreased in the active exercise program (p < 0.05). moreover, the mean diastolic blood pressure was significantly decreased after the passive exercise (p = 0.039). passive exercise did n...

objective(s): the effect of prolonged overtraining on cytokine kinetics was compared with moderate exercise in the present study.   materials and methods: male wistar rats were randomly divided into control sedentary (c), moderate trained (mt), (v=20 m/min, 30 min/day for 6 days a week, 8 weeks), overtrained (ot) (v=25 m/min, 60min/day for 6 days a week, 11 weeks) and recovered overtrained (or)...

background: multiple sclerosis (ms) is a neurological disease with a variety of signs and symptoms. exercise therapy has been shown to improve physical functions in ms. however, questions about an optimal exercise therapy remain. in this regard, we suggest a combined exercise therapy including aerobic and resistance exercises for ms patients. the study is designed to observe, test and compare t...

inflammation and pain induced by delayed onset muscle soreness (doms) can be induced by eccentric exercise or an unaccustomed activity. the condition can causes problems in exercising and for athletes. the purpose of this study was to assess the effect of 150mg curcumin supplementation immediately after intensive eccentric exercise. evaluations were made for total antioxidant capacity (tac), mu...

conclusions we suggest that regular aerobic exercise can favorably alter the inflammatory profile, which is a known risk factor in breast cancer development, in postmenopausal women. patients and methods this study was a randomized controlled trial. we randomly assigned 41 postmenopausal, sedentary women aged 50 to 74 to either an exercise or a control group. the intervention involved facility-...

the aim of this study was to investigate the acute effects of two resistance exercise protocols with slow and fast movements on some anabolic and catabolic hormones. hence, in a randomized crossover design, 10 young men (age: 23.3±1.76 yr) were divided into 3 groups: control (con), resistance exercise with slow movement (sm), and resistance exercise with fast movement (fm). subjects performed 6...
