the aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of two aerobic training programs with different intensities on some cardiovascular risk factors in young girls. for this purpose, 42 girls (mean age 20.59±1.46 years, height 160.29±4.75 cm, weight 59.23±8.82 kg, bmi 22.08±3.41 kg/m2, %bf 15.42±3.85 and vo2max 25.34±3.96 ml/kg/min) were voluntarily participated in this study and divided ...

the purpose of the present research was to examine the effect of one bout of exhaustive aerobic exercise with two different intensities on levels of serum mda in male smokers. for this purpose, 12 male smokers (age: 22.08 ±1.31 years, percent of body fat: 17.26 ±4.92% and body mass index: 23.21±2.96 kg/m2) were voluntarily selected and randomly participated in a crossover design in three situat...

in aim of this research was to investigate the effect of a decrease in the number of practice sessions and an increase in exercise intensity on aerobic and anaerobic power, body fat percentage, and body mass index. 80 subjects (average age: 20.2±1.53 years and height: 160.18±5.43cm) were divided into 4 groups (3 experimental groups and one control group). the experimental groups exercised with ...

To find the relation between exercise and cytokines, we examined the effect of the training intensity on the levels of cytokines, including interferon-gamma (IFN-γ), interlukine-4 (IL-4) and interlukine-4/interferon-gamma ratio (IL-4/IFN-γ ratio) in female Futsal players. Twelve well-trained female college Futsal players aged 19~22 participated in this study. The athletes completed 30-min of ru...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate heart rate variability during an inspiratory muscle endurance protocol at three different load levels [30%, 60% and 80% of maximal inspiratory pressure], in patients who had previously undergone coronary artery bypass grafting. METHODS Nineteen late postoperative myocardial revascularization patients participating in a cardiovascular rehabilitation program were studied. ...

conclusions in the children in this study, pacemaker accelerometers failed to meet physiological demands. results basal heart rates, maximal heart rates, and exercise tolerance were significantly lower in the children with pacemakers. age, sex, and body mass index had no effect on the heart rate slope during the exercise test. there was no significant difference between epicardial and endocardi...

Studies in anesthetized rats have implicated GABAA receptors in the region of the medullary raphe pallidus (RP) at the level of the facial nucleus in sympathetic nervous regulation of both heart rate and thermoregulatory mechanisms. Therefore, we examined the effect of microinjection of muscimol, a GABAA receptor agonist, and of bicuculline methiodide (BMI), a GABAA receptor antagonist, into th...

abstract objective children suffering from cerebral palsy (cp), exhibit movement limitations and physiological abnormalities as compared to normal individuals. the objective of this study was to assess mechanical efficiency and certain cardiovascular indices before and after an exercise-rehabilitation program in children with dipelegia spastic cerebral palsy (experimental group) in comparison w...
