conclusions the findings confirmed the positive influence of ud supplements and aerobic training on glycemic control in males with t2dm. when aerobic training was combined with a ud supplement, a greater degree of glycemic control was observed. results a significant decrease in fasting blood sugar (fbs) was observed in the ae group (-9.50 ± 6.96 mg/dl; p = 0.002), the ud group (-7.60 ± 6.04 mg/...

purpose aerobic exercise has been identified as the main treatment for type 2 diabetic patients. such an exercise, however, is usually repined by some of patients who suffer from lack of stamina. therefore, whole body vibration has recently been introduced as a passive intervention. the present study aimed at comparing how aerobic exercise and whole body vibration affect glycaemia control in ty...

We aimed to investigate the effects of aerobic exercise on pain perception, sensitivity, and health-related quality of life; to assess its effect on parasympathetic tonus by analysis of heart rate recovery; and to examine the effects of parasympathetic tone on pain sensitivity in patients with chronic musculoskeletal pain. Fifty patients with chronic musculoskeletal pain were randomized into tw...

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether a combined resistance and aerobic training program would improve insulin sensitivity compared with aerobic training alone in postmenopausal women with type 2 diabetes. A second objective was to relate the improved insulin sensitivity to changes in abdominal adipose tissue (AT) and thigh muscle density. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS A t...

coronary artery disease (cad) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in most countries. this disease is directly associated with increased low–density lipoprotein cholesterol (ldl-c) and is conversely associated with high–density lipoprotein cholesterol (hdl-c) concentrations. abca1 is the main exporter of phospholipid and cholesterol from cells to lipid-free or minimum lipid apolipoprot...

BACKGROUND We hypothesized that the use of oxygen supplementation during aerobic exercise induces less DNA damage than exercise alone. The aim of this study is to assess the level of DNA damage induced by physical exercise with and without oxygen supplementation in chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPD) patients. METHODS Peripheral blood was collected before and after aerobic exercise ...

Pyruvate formate-lyase activating enzyme (PFL-AE) catalyzes the generation of a catalytically essential glycyl radical on pyruvate formate-lyase (PFL). Purified PFL-AE contains an oxygen-sensitive, labile [4Fe-4S] cluster that undergoes cluster interconversions in vitro, with only the [4Fe-4S](+) cluster state being catalytically active. Such cluster interconversions could play a role in regula...

Resistance (RE) and aerobic exercise (AE) can promote hemodynamic, physiologic and clinical modifications in coronary artery disease (CAD) patients. The aim of the study is to assess key physiologic and clinical responses during RE at 30% and 60% of 1-RM on a 45° leg press and to compare responses during AE. We evaluated fifteen male subjects with coronary artery disease (60.8±4.7 years) that p...
