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)...

purpose: the purpose of the current study is to evaluate the efficacy of regular exercise as a useful nonpharmacological strategy in attenuating the diabetes symptom such as hyperglycaemia, polyuria, polydipsia, polyphagia, and weight loss. materials and methods: twenty male wistar rats (200±20 gr) were divided to four groups (n = 5 per group): sedentary normal (n), trained normal (ne), sedenta...

the present study aimed to compare substrate oxidation and total energy expenditure during running with low and moderate intensity until exhaustion and one hour after exercise in obese male students. for this purpose, in a crossover study design, 11 male university students (mean age 20.45±1.69 years, bmi 31.26±1.3 kg/m2, body fat percentage 28.47±3.53 %) participated in this study. two exercis...

conclusions the findings suggest that chronic coadministration of nandrolone with moderate-intensity endurance exercise facilitates the vf occurrence in rat. complementary studies are needed to elucidate the involved mechanisms of this abnormality. results nandrolone, exercise, and their combination were associated with heart hypertrophy. exercise could prevent the incremental effect of nandrol...

objective(s)the aim of this study was to evaluate plasma levels of nitric oxide (no) and certain acute phase proteins(caeruloplasmin, transferrin, haptoglobin, c-reactive protein) in nigerian subjects after short and prolonged exercises.materials and methodsa total of 57 subjects (34 males and 23 females) between ages of 19 and 45 years participated in this study and weredivided into three grou...

the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of forced physical exercise with moderate intensity on alzheimer-induced amnesia in adult male rats. 48 male wistar- albino rats were randomly selected and assigned to 6 groups (n=8 per group): control, placebo (saline), drug-exercise, saline-exercise, exercise and exercise-drug. in this study, dicyclomine (16 mg/kg) was used to induce alzheim...

Raised levels of serum muscle enzyme activity are frequently seen following unaccustomed or prolonged strenuous exercise. Following particularly severe exercise, muscle enzyme levels can be extremely high and are occasionally associated with rhabdomyolysis. A case of rhabdomyolysis following a moderate degree of accustomed exercise in a fit young soldier is reported and discussed.

objective(s): osteoarthritis (oa) or degenerative joint disease is the commonest form of arthritis and can lead to joint pain, decrease in joint’s range of motion, loss of function, and ultimately disability. exercise is considered as one of the non-pharmacological treatments of oa. but the effects of exercise on knee joint cartilage remain ambiguous. the aim of the present study was to investi...
