Abstract Sarcopenia is a gradual loss of skeletal muscle mass and function with aging. Given that sarcopenia has been recognized as disease entity, effective molecular biomarkers for early diagnosis are required. We recruited 46 normal subjects 50 patients moderate aged 60 years older. was clinically identified on the basis appendicular index by applying cutoff values derived from Asian Working Group Sarcopenia. The serum levels 21 potential were analyzed statistically examined. Interleukin...
Ursolic acid (UA), a type of pentacyclic triterpenoid carboxylic purified from natural plants, can promote skeletal muscle development. We measured the effect resistance training (RT) with/without UA on development and related factors in men. Sixteen healthy male participants (age, 29.37±5.14 years; body mass index=27.13±2.16 kg/m(2)) were randomly assigned to RT (n=7) or with (RT+UA, n=9) groups. Both groups completed 8 weeks intervention consisting 5 sets 26 exercises, 10~15 repetitions at...
Irisin, a newly identified hormone, is associated with energy homeostasis. We investigated whether aged garlic extract (AGE) and exercise training intervention could improve body weight, insulin sensitivity, skeletal muscle fibronectin domain containing protein 5 (FNDC-5) levels, plasma irisin in high-fat diet (HFD).Male Sprague Dawley rats were fed ND (normal diet, n = 5) or HFD (n 28) for 6 weeks. After weeks, all divided into groups the next 4 weeks: ND, 5), (high-fat 7), HFDA + extract,...
Aging causes a decline in physical function and hormonal balance. Exercise can improve these parameters. However, the beneficial effects of combined exercise program (Korean dance yoga) on status elderly women remain unknown. This study aims to investigate 12-week balance, flexibility, muscle strength, Korean women. Twenty-five healthy were recruited randomly divided into control (CON) (EXE) groups. The EXE group underwent (60 min/day 3 times/week) for 12 weeks. two groups did not differ...
Aged garlic extract (AGE) is known to have a protective effect against immune system, endothelial function, oxidative stress and inflammation.We examined the effects of exercise with without aged administration on body weight, lipid profiles, inflammatory cytokines, marker in high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obese rats.Forty-five Sprague-Dawley rats were fed either HFD (HFD, n = 40) or normal (ND, 5) for 6 weeks thereafter randomized into ND (n 5), 10), AGE Exercise Exercise+AGE 10) 4 weeks.AGE...
Ursolic acid (UA) supplementation was previously shown to improve skeletal muscle function in resistance-trained men. This study aimed determine, using the same experimental paradigm, whether UA also has beneficial effects on exercise-induced damage markers including levels of cortisol, B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP), myoglobin, creatine kinase (CK), kinase-myocardial band (CK-MB), and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) Sixteen healthy participants were randomly assigned resistance training (RT)...
To evaluate the longitudinal changes of swallowing kinematics based on videofluoroscopic studies (VFSSs) in subacute stroke patients grouped according to method dietary intake.Sixty-nine who had taken at least 2 successive VFSSs were included. Subjects allocated into 3 groups degree function recovery-not improved group (tube feeding recommended both studies), feedings initially and oral follow-up study), well-maintained (oral patients). Initial VFSS was performed during stage stroke, 1 12...
Abstract Currently, extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) is widely used for treatment of various musculoskeletal disorders. We report a case ulnar neuropathy secondary to the application ESWT. A 48‐year‐old man was diagnosed with medial epicondylitis and underwent 2 sessions Immediately after second session, he experienced paresthesia weakness in right hand. On physical examination, atrophy first dorsal interosseus abductor digiti minimi were observed. Electrophysiologic study...
This 12-week study investigates the effects of resistance training with different set structures on plasma levels brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), nerve growth (NGF), and obesity-related markers in middle-aged Korean women obesity. A total 40 obesity (mean age, 59.87 ± 2.80 years) were enrolled this study; only 31 able to complete exercise period. The participants randomly divided into following four groups: control (CON, n = 8), drop system (Drop, descending (Descend, 7), ascending...

Patients with dementia and concomitant parkinsonism are frequently encountered in the elderly population.When it comes to young adults, however, coexistence of Alzheimer's disease (AD) Parkinson's (PD) is rare.We described a case 47-year old man presenile onset associated hemiparkinsonism involving right extremities.Brain biopsy showed neurofibrillary tangles neuritic plaques, compatible disease.Iodine-123 labelled N-(3-iodopropen-2-yl)-2beta-carbomethoxy-3beta-(4-chlorophenyl) tropane ([(...

The purpose of this study were to analysis the effects on elderly women`s Growth Hormone and Blood Lipids Profile by participating in regular Korean Dance for 24weeks, identify change Profile(TC, HDL-C, TG) treating 24weeks pre-post treatment participate. results obtain from as following; 1. concentration increased significantly post-treatment more than pre-treatment groups. 2. group blood TG concentration, but TC did not show effects. From study, it is performing women weakening improved...
Adipocyte-derived VEGF-A plays a crucial role in angiogenesis and contributes to adipocyte function systemic metabolism, such as insulin resistance, chronic inflammation beigeing of subcutaneous adipose tissue. Utilizing doxycycline (Dox)-inducible adipocyte-specific overexpressing mouse model, we investigated the dynamics local effects on tissue beiging transplants. overexpression adipocytes triggers angiogenesis. We also observe rapid appearance beige fat cells white (sWATs) within early 2...
This study aimed to examine Metabolic factors, Insulin Resistance, CRP and Isokinetic Muscular Functions of middle-aged women with Syndrome after dividing them into combined exercise groups which are resistance training & aerobic training, yoga, yoga groups. The participants were 33 aged from 45 56 years was conducted by group: RAG 8, group:RYG 9, AYG control CG 8 for 12 weeks. ANCOVA using SPSS 18.0 Program data processing. result demonstrated that weight among factors higher in than RYG,...

Examination official Property Register revealed that with greater individuality require more confirmation...
This study was done to propose an effective training method which improve the isokinetic muscular function around knee and waist joint. 14 bodybuilders were classified into traditional group(n=7) HIT(High Intensity Training) according movement repetition velocity during weight training. Hit slower than in velocity. Subjects of two groups performed 12weeks program. SPSS 15.0 for windows used data analysis. Paired t-test conducted compare difference between pre post training, ANCOVA(analysis...
PURPOSE: Skeletal muscle atrophy induces overall health problems and many related diseases in older adults. In particular, sarcopenia is to lowered quality of life, decreased physical activity, high levels morbidity mortality owing chronic diseases, even falling. Despite the clinical studies on skeletal atrophy, a little study had been about exact mechanism at molecular level. 2017, A disease code (ICD-10-CM) for was announced attempt approach United States. According these approaches,...
