Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is provoked by an autoimmune assault against pancreatic β cells. Exercise training enhances β-cell mass in T1D. Here, we investigated how exercise signals cells T1D condition. For this, used several approaches. Wild-type and IL-6 knockout (KO) C57BL/6 mice were exercised. Afterward, islets from control trained exposed to inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β plus IFN-γ). Islets lines (INS-1E MIN6) incubated with serum or medium obtained 5-aminoimidazole-4 carboxamide...
Exercise is an excellent tool to study the interactions between metabolic stress and immune system. Specifically, high-intensity exercises both produce transient hyperammonemia influence distribution of white blood cells. Carbohydrates glutamine arginine supplementation were previously shown effectively modulate ammonia levels during exercise. In this study, we used a short-duration, exercise together with low carbohydrate diet induce state better understand how influences ammonemia...
Background: The assessment of physical fitness levels in adolescents serves as a predictor for chronic degenerative diseases adulthood. Therefore, the measurement using simple, cost-effective, easily applicable, and with good psychometric properties tool like International Fitness Scale is global public health interest. Purpose: Validate construct reliability Brazilian version 'International Scale' (IFIS-BRA) adolescents. Methods: 319 (12 to 17 years old) both sexes underwent IFIS-BRA twice...
Prolonged exercise has positive metabolic effects in obese or diabetic individuals. These are usually ascribed to improvements insulin sensitivity. We evaluated whether also generates circulating signals that protect human and rodent β cells against endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress apoptosis. For this purpose, we obtained serum from humans mice before after an 8 wk training period. Exposure of islets mouse rat sera, respectively, trained individuals reduced cytokine (IL-1β+IFN-γ)- chemical...
The effects of exercise on insulin clearance and IDE expression are not yet fully elucidated. Here, we have explored the effect acute in lean mice. Male Swiss mice were subjected to a single bout speed/angle controlled treadmill for 3-h at approximately 60-70% maximum oxygen consumption. As expected, reduced glycemia insulinemia, increased tolerance. activity AMPK-ACC, but IR-Akt, pathway was liver skeletal muscle trained In an apparent contrast glucose-stimulated secretion isolated islets...
Epigenetic regulation is considered the main molecular mechanism underlying developmental origin of health and disease's (DOHAD) hypothesis. Previous studies that have investigated role paternal exercise on metabolic offspring did not control for amount intensity training or possible effects adaptation to produced conflicting results regarding benefits parental next generation. We employed a precisely regulated regimen study transgenerational inheritance improved health.We subjected male...
Objective: To compare the traditional printed form of Behavioral Regulation in Exercise Questionnaire with a proposed online terms validity, reliability, and applicability. Methods: A crossover design study was conducted 157 undergraduate students. Half sample answered questionnaire first then 7 days later, while other half did inverse. Cronbach’s alpha used to analyze internal consistency both [...]
ABSTRACT Purpose: to evaluate the reliability of maximum phonation time (MPT) and Vital Capacity intra inter-examiner, by means single-breath counting test (CT) sustained /a/ phoneme, slow vital capacity (SVC). Methods: a study carried out in three groups healthy individuals, each group with 30 volunteers, allocated according age. SVC was measured using spirometer, while MPT assessed phoneme CT. The data were analyzed SPSS version 20.0. Initially, descriptive statistics used for reliability,...
A avaliação do nível da aptidão física em adolescentes apresenta-se como preditor de doenças crônicas degenerativas fase adulta, logo a sua mensuração por meio simples, barato e fácil aplicabilidade faz com que o International Fitness Scale, seja interesse saúde pública mundial. Portanto, nosso objetivo foi avaliar as evidências baseadas nas relações variáveis externas confiabilidade Scale - versão brasileira (IFIS BRA). Participaram estudo adolescentes, ambos os sexos. Foram aplicados IFIS...
The COVID-19 pandemic has generated mental health problems, which motivated this research, aimed to test the effect of resilience, mediated by positive and negative affects, on life satisfaction flourishing. A total 261 Brazilian university students participated; they had an average age 24.38 ± 7.44 years old, 63.9% were female. They answered online survey at beginning social isolation containing scales satisfaction, flourishing, in addition sociodemographic questions. In mediation model,...
ABSTRACT This study aimed to compare the effects of aerobic training at self-selected intensity (SIE) and predetermined (PIE) on health-related quality life (HRQOL) in adolescents with obesity. Randomized clinical trial conducted 37 (boys girls), 13–18 yr old, Tanner stages 3–4, body mass index ≥95th. Eighteen were randomly assigned SIE 19 PIE. Aerobic sessions consisted 35 min a treadmill, three times per week, for 12 wk. group chose speed/intensity beginning each session was able change it...
To compare the effects of self-selected and predetermined intensity on sleep quality duration, daytime sleepiness, efficiency adolescents with obesity after 12 weeks aerobic training.
Objetivo: O presente estudo teve como objetivo avaliar os níveis de sonolência diurna excessiva e prevalência sobrepeso obesidade em estudantes do ensino médio, verificando o comportamento dessas variáveis entre turnos escolares. Métodos: Estudo corte transversal comparativo com 164 16 a 20 anos idade 91 sexo feminino 73 masculino duas escolas públicas da cidade Itararé - São Paulo. Estes alunos foram avaliados dois escolares (manhã noite). A foi avaliada pela Escala Sonolência Epworth,...
Objetivo: Avaliar a qualidade de vida em adolescentes. Métodos: A pesquisa transversal, descritiva e comparativa foi composta por 69 adolescentes (39 do sexo feminino 30 masculino). Para mensuração da utilizou-se o questionário Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL 4.0). análise instrumento realizada intermédio dos critérios propostos na validação determinada uma escala 0 100 (0 = 100, 1= 75, 2 50, 3 25, 4 0). consistência interna das respostas avaliada através coeficiente...
This study compared the effects of self-selected exercise intensity (SEI) versus predetermined (PEI) on blood pressure (BP) and arterial stiffness in adolescents with obesity. A total 37 adolescents, 14.7 (1.6) years old, body mass index ≥95th percentile were randomly allocated into SEI (n = 18; 12 boys) or PEI 19; 13 boys). Both groups exercised for 35 minutes a treadmill, 3 times per week, weeks. The could set speed at beginning sessions make changes every 5 minutes. trained an 60% to 70%...
To examine the impact of climate variability on occurrence exercise-induced bronchospasm in rainy and dry seasons a Brazilian semi-arid region.This sample comprised 82 adolescents aged 15 to 18 years, who were submitted assessment treadmill outdoors, during season. Anthropometric variables, sexual maturity forced expiratory volume first second analyzed. Air temperature humidity, decline (%) frequency compared between using independent Student's t test, Wilcoxon McNemar tests, respectively....
With technological advances, online surveys have become increasingly common, which makes fitness assessment feasible. We aimed to assess the construct validity and test reliability of International Fitness Scale – Brazilian version (IFIS BRA) in format compared printed version. Participants were adolescents (n = 294), aged between 12 17 years, both sexes. Adolescents answered IFIS BRA two moments, with an interval weeks applications.
