Whole body vibration exercise (WBVE) has been shown to improve muscular strength and power, increase peripheral blood flow. The aim of this study was evaluate the behavior skin temperature (Tsk) on regions lower limbs from an acute bout WBVE.Cross-sectional approved by local ethics committee (Certificado de Apresentação para Apreciação Ética-CAAE-19826413.8.0000.5259) Trial registration (Registro Brasileiro Ensaios Clínicos-REBEC-RBR-738wng). Using Infrared thermography (IRT), Tsk thermal...
Overweight and obesity are conditions associated with sedentary lifestyle accumulation of abdominal fat, determining increased mortality, favoring chronic diseases, increasing cardiovascular risk. Although the evaluation body composition fat distribution highly relevant, high cost gold standard techniques limits their wide utilization. Therefore, aim this work was to explore relationships between simple anthropometric measures BIA variables using multivariate linear regression models...
(1) Background: This study investigated the effects of two 6-week whole-body vibration exercise (WBVE) protocols on body composition in patients with metabolic syndrome (MSy). Thirty-three were allocated to either Fixed Frequency WBVE Group (FFG-WBVE) or Variable (VFG-WBVE). (2) Methods: A side-alternating platform was used and remained semi-squat position this platform. In FFG-WBVE (n = 12; median age 50.50 years) (body mass index BMI 31.95 kg/m2), exposed 10 s mechanical at a fixed...
Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is one of the most frequent noncommunicable diseases with pain associated symptoms and affects musculoskeletal system. Various forms treatment can be indicated, nonpharmacological also an available option for management KOA individuals. For instance, auriculotherapy (AT) possible procedure Traditional Chinese Medicine dealing KOA. It believed that concentration certain biomarkers could altered in individuals after AT. The aim this study was to evaluate effect AT on...
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is an undesirable clinical condition with physiological, biochemical, clinical, and metabolic factors that contribute to increased cardiovascular risks (CR). A poor sleep quality might be found in obese MetS individuals. Whole-body vibration (WBV) exercise has been used on the management of This trial investigated effect WBV parameters related After randomization, nine individuals (seven women two men) were exposed a fixed frequency (FF) ten (eight variable (VF)....
Introduction: Among chronic diseases, knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a joint disease that causes important progressive alterations in the articular and periarticular structures, including synovial inflammation. Exercise has been suggested as an intervention to KOA individuals, studies suggest whole-body vibration (WBV) exercise decreases pain levels favours functionality of individuals. Objective: The aim present study analyze acute effects WBV on levels, (Timed Up Go (TUG test), anterior...
(1) Background: Hypertension is a serious medical condition characterized by persistent increase in blood pressure (BP), which prevalent individuals with knee osteoarthritis (KOA). Pharmacological interventions are normally used to treat both hypertension and KOA; however, more sustainable form of treatment desirable for these clinical conditions. Whole-body vibration (WBV) exercise has been proposed as non-pharmacological therapy reducing BP KOA symptomatology. This study aimed evaluate the...
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is related to overweight and obesity, contributes clinical limitations. Exercise used for the management of MetS individuals, who are often not motivated perform this practice. Whole body vibration exercise (WBVE) produces several biological effects, besides being safe, effective, feasible individuals. This pseudo-randomized cross-over controlled trial study aimed analyze effects WBVE on individuals’ neuromuscular activation using surface electromyography (sEMG)...
Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a degenerative disease of the knee joint. This study aims to evaluate effects whole-body vibration (WBV), auriculotherapy (AT), and association these techniques with functionality KOA individuals. Individuals (n = 120) were allocated an AT group (GAT), WBV (GWBV), (GWBV + AT), their respective controls (CGAT, CGWBMV, CGWBMV AT). The intervention was performed 5–14 Hz in 3 min working time 1 rest. control protocol vibrating platform (VP) turned off. adhesive...
The aim of this study was to determine the effect on quality life two non-pharmacological interventions isolated or in combination: (i) passive whole-body vibration exercise (WBVE), and (ii) auriculotherapy (AT). One hundred three participants with knee osteoarthritis (KOA) were allocated to: (a) a group (WBVEG; n = 17) that performed WBVE (peak-to-peak displacement: 2.5 7.5 mm, frequency: 5 14 Hz, Peak acceleration: 0.12 2.95 g), days/weekly for five weeks, (b) an AT (ATG; 21), stimulation...
In addition to its nutritional value, Paullinia cupana (guarana) is commonly used in traditional medicine, known for stimulant and medicinal properties. This investigation evaluated the effects of a guarana extract combination with whole-body vibration (WBV) exercises on Wistar rats. Rats (male, n = 20) were divided into following four groups: control (CON), treated (GUA), submitted 50 Hz WBV (WBV-E), (GUA + WBV-E), daily 6-weeks. Guarana altered (p < 0.05) uptake radiopharmaceutical...
The treatment of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is a health challenge and new approaches to solve this issue have been proposed. This study evaluated the biological effects concomitant with Coriandrum sativum (coriander) whole-body vibration (WBV) exercise on rats T1DM. It hypothesized that will improve metabolic state T1DM was induced alloxan. Male (n = 20) were divided into four groups: control (CON), treated coriander (COR), exposed 50 Hz WBV (WBV), (COR + WBV), weekly for 28 days. No...
Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) can cause functional disability. Neuromuscular function is relevant in the development and progression of KOA. It be evaluated by analysis surface electromyography (sEMG), which has an important role understanding Whole-body vibration (WBV) intervention suggested to treat The objective this work was verify effectiveness WBV on functionality lower limbs electromyographic profile vastus lateralis (VL) muscles during five-repetition chair stand test (5CST) patients...
Introduction: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is characterized bya group of cardiovascular risk factors, such as hypertension,hyperglycemia, hypercholesterolemia, low high-density cholesteroland increased abdominal fat. Over the years, changesin body composition occur, with accelerated loss lean massand fat mass, favoring cardiometabolic disorders.A strong relationship exists between physical inactivity andthe presence multiple factors for MetS. Thus, physicalexercise has been recommended...
Introduction The physical inactivity has been identified as the fourth leading risk factor for mortality in world. Physical activity may exert beneficial influence on cardiovascular system, besides to bring benefits lipid metabolism, increase of lean mass, and basal metabolism. As a response activity, concentration several hormones is altered, cortisol. Different specimens are used determination cortisol, like saliva, urine, blood samples hair. aim this narrative review present scientific...
The Hip Sports Activity Scale (HSAS) is a reliable and valid tool for determining the levels of sports activities among patients with femoroacetabular impingement (FAI).To translate cross-culturally adapt HSAS to Brazilian Portuguese language.This was cross-sectional study conducted at State University Rio de Janeiro.The version developed following process that comprised six steps: translation, synthesis, back-translation, review by committee, pretesting submission documentation developers....
