The majority of Indigenous Australians reside in non-urban locations, with reduced access to chest radiology such as computed tomography (CT). Spirometry and X-ray (CXR) may be used the absence CT; however, correlation spirometry indices CT-defined chronic airway diseases (i.e. obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) bronchiectasis) compared CXR among people is sparsely reported.To evaluate against CT findings adult Australians.Indigenous patients who had undergone a test between 2012 2020 or...

The combined effect of green tea ingestion and interval sprinting exercise on body abdominal fat overweight males was investigated. Participants were randomly assigned into control (C), (GT), (ISE), ISE (GT + ISE) groups. GT, GT ISE, C groups consumed three capsules daily. completed 36 sessions over 12 weeks. Forty eight with a mean BMI 28.5 ± 0.92 kg/m2 age 26 0.7 years acted as participants. There significant reduction in total mass for the groups, p < 0.05, however, did not...

Background The ergogenic properties of acute caffeine (CAF) and sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) ingestion on athletic performance have been previously investigated. However, each sport has unique physiological technical characteristics which warrants optimizing supplementations strategies for maximizing performance. This study examined the effects CAF NaHCO3 responses rate perceived exertion during a Karate-specific aerobic test (KSAT) in competitive karatekas.Methods In double-blind, crossover,...

The objective was to investigate and compare the efficacy of supervised Kegel exercises with bio-feedback on stress urinary incontinence (SUI) pelvic floor muscle strength (PFMS) compared unsupervised exercises.Matched-group quasi-experimental study 29 female participants divided into two groups (supervised non-supervised) conducted over 12 weeks. Baseline measurements PFMS were undertaken by a women's health physiotherapist exercise regime bespoke designed for each participant. group...

Urinary incontinence (UI) can negatively affect a woman's quality of life, participation in sport and athletic performance. The objectives this study were to determine the prevalence UI competitive women powerlifters; identify possible risk factors activities likely provoke UI; establish self-care practices.This international cross-sectional was conducted using an online survey completed by 480 powerlifters aged between 20 71 years. Incontinence Severity Index (ISI) used severity UI.We found...

Fat oxidation has been shown to increase after short term green tea extract (GTE) ingestion and one bout of intermittent sprinting exercise (ISE). Whether combining the two will result in greater fat ISE is undetermined. The aim current study was investigate combined effect GTE a single session upon post-exercise oxidation. Fourteen women consumed three or placebo capsules day before capsule 90 min 20-min cycling protocol followed by 1 h resting recovery. calculated using indirect...

Purpose: Urinary incontinence is a common condition that potentially discourages women from participating in physical activity. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of urinary and athletic establish which activities contexts were most likely provoke urine leakage CrossFit competitors. Patients Methods: research was an international, cross-sectional, survey-based study. The online survey completed by 452 Incontinence Severity Index used frequency severity incontinence. Results:...

The current study examined the acute effects of a lower body resistance training (RT) session on physiological and thermoregulatory measures during sub-maximal running protocol in heat heat-acclimatized men. Ten resistance-untrained men (age 27.4 ± 4.1 years; height 1.78 0.06 m; mass 76.8 9.9 kg; peak oxygen uptake 48.2 7.0 mL kg-1 min-1) undertook high-intensity RT at six-repetition maximum. Indirect muscle damage markers (i.e., creatine kinase [CK], delayed-onset soreness [DOMS],...

Core-strength is vital for Greco-Roman wrestling, although studies have yet to establish the effectives of core-specific training in this sport.To examine effect strength on determinants wrestling performance elite junior athletes.Twenty state-level, junior, wrestlers were randomized into a group (COR; n= 12) and control (CON; 8). The COR undertook 4-week, program concurrently with their typical program, whilst CON completed 4 weeks only. Both groups overhead medicine ball throw (OMBT),...

COVID-19 is a highly contagious virus that uses Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) as receptor to enter human cells. The leads an increase in inflammatory cytokines (i.e. IL-6) and impaired coagulation system, which can cause serious complications during after the disease. Physical exercise has been shown improve through various mechanisms, such modulation of immune systems. Therefore, this study investigated effects 8 weeks training on inflammatory, coagulation, physical factors...

This study examined the acute effects of resistance training (RT) on volleyball-specific performance. Sixteen female volleyball players undertook their initial, pre-season RT bout. Countermovement jump (CMJ), delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS), and sport-specific performances (i.e., run-up jump, agility, spiking speed accuracy) were measured before, 24 (T24), 48 (T48) hours after RT. A significant increase in DOMS was observed at T24 T48 (~207.6% ± 119.3%; p < 0.05; ES = 1.8 (95% CI:...

This comparative pre–post intervention study investigated the feasibility and benefits of Kegel exercises amongst incontinent women, prior to commencing resistance training (RT), reduce risk stress urinary incontinence (SUI) compared a group women without (KE). Incontinence severity index (ISI) score, pelvic floor muscle strength (PFMS), body composition (such as mass (BMI), fat, mass), were obtained pre post intervention. Results demonstrated that RT reduced SUI significantly greater extent...
