Purpose: The purpose was to investigate the effect of a 16-wk intrahospital supervised conditioning program including both resistance and aerobic training 20-wk detraining period on measures fitness, muscular strength, functional mobility, ankle range motion, quality life (QOL) in children receiving treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Methods: Seven (four boys, three girls; age: 5.1 ± 1.2 yr, body mass: 24.0 5.8 kg, height: 114.6 7.7 cm) maintenance phase against ALL performed...
The purpose of this study was to determine if an eight-week intrahospital supervised, conditioning program improves functional capacity and quality life (QOL) in children (4 boys, 4 girls) (mean [SD] age: 10.9 [2.8] years [range: 8 - 16]) who have undergone bone marrow transplantation (BMT) for leukemia treatment within the last 12 months. A group age gender-matched healthy served as controls. experimental performed 3 weekly sessions resistance aerobic training inside intra-hospital...
The purpose of this study was to determine if the functional capacity and quality life children receiving treatment against acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is decreased compared healthy age gender-matched children. Functional assessed with a number measurements as peak oxygen uptake (VO2peak) ventilatory threshold determined during ramp treadmill test, mobility (Timed Up Down Stairs test [TUDS]) ankle dorsiflexion passive active range motion (passive DF-ROM, respectively). Quality (QOL)...
We assessed the possible association between variants of genes encoding for angiotensin-converting enzyme ( ACE) and alpha-actinin-3 ACTN3) (both individually combined) several endurance phenotypic traits, e.g., peak power output (PPO), ventilatory (VT) respiratory compensation threshold (RCT), among others, in professional road cyclists sedentary controls (n = 46 each). applied an ANCOVA test using aforementioned phenotype traits as dependent variables, ACE and/or ACTN3 genotype fixed...
We examined the association of R577X polymorphism (rs1815739) in α‐actinin‐3 ( ACTN3 ) gene with “explosive” leg muscle power performance a group male and female elite volleyball players n =66, 31 men, 35 women) non‐athletic young adults =334, 243 91 women). assessed by means vertical squat counter‐movement jump tests. also determined whether genotypic frequencies genotypes differed between groups. did not observe any effect on study phenotypes both groups, regardless gender (all P...
ABSTRACT Objective Low‐intensity exercise applied in anorexia nervosa patients has been shown to have a harmless effect on body composition and short‐term improvements muscular strength agility. The aim of this study was determine the effects high‐intensity resistance training program designed for adolescents improve agility restricting‐type (AN‐R). Methods From total 36 female with AN‐R, one group (intervention, n = 18) underwent supervised lasting 8 weeks, other no (control, 18). Body...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the normalized response speed (Vrn) knee musculature (flexor and extensor) in high competitive level volleyball players using tensiomyography (TMG) analyze muscular vastus medialis (VM), rectus femoris (RF), lateralis (VL), biceps (BF) accordance with specific position they play their teams. One hundred sixty-six (83 women 83 men) were evaluated. They belonged eight teams Spanish women’s superleague men’s superleague. use Vrn allows avoiding possible...
Purpose: The aim of this study was to analyze the effects short-term resistance training on body composition profile and muscle function in a group Anorexia Nervosa restricting type (AN-R) patients. Methods: sample consisted AN-R female adolescents (12.8 ± 0.6 years) allocated into control intervention groups (n = 18 each). Body relative strength were assessed at baseline, after 8 weeks 4 following intervention. Results: mass index (BMI) increased throughout (p 0.011). Significant skeletal...
Background: McArdle disease is an uncommon metabolic disorder usually characterized by marked exercise intolerance although great individual variability exists in its phenotypic manifestation. Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine the association between angiotensin-converting enzyme ( ACE ) genotypes and indices capacity (peak oxygen uptake (V O 2 peak ), ventilatory threshold (VT) gross mechanical efficiency (GE)) patients with disease. Based on previous research, it...
and purpose: Exercise has not typically been used as an adjunct in treatment of anorexia nervosa (AN). This study aimed to examine the effects progressive resistance exercise (PREx) on perceived quality life (QoL) body composition adolescents with AN.Forty-four diagnosed AN were randomly allocated either PREx or control groups after hospitalization. The group completed twenty-four sessions over two months including three sets 8-10 repetitions eight whole-body exercises at a moderate...
The purpose of this study was to assess if there exists an association between C34T muscle adenosine monophosphate deaminase (AMPD1) genotypes (i.e., normal homyzygotes [CC] vs. heterozygotes [CT]) and directly measured indices exercise capacity (peak oxygen uptake [V·O2peak], ventilatory threshold [VT], gross mechanical efficiency [GE], etc.) in 44 Caucasian McArdle patients (23 males, 21 females). All performed a graded cycle ergometer test until exhaustion (for V·O2peak VT determination)...
Background: Existing research suggests that irisin increases in response to exercise humans. However, results are controversial and a majority of the studies lack control group. The present study aimed analyze effects both one-bout, three-week intense resistance training on physical fitness (body composition strength) serum levels when compared Methods: A total 26 healthy young adults (n = 14 males; 12 females) completed pre-assessment phase, were randomly assigned either intervention or...
Background: Cystic fibrosis (CF) affects the autonomic nervous system (ANS) and exercise in healthy children modulates interaction between sympathetic parasympathetic activity. This study aimed to evaluate effects of a short-term resistance program on heart rate variability (HRV) adolescents with CF. Methods: A randomized controlled trial was carried out diagnosed CF aged 6–18 years. Individuals were divided into two groups: control (CON) resistance-training (EX). EX group completed an...
The primary purpose of this study was to determine prevalence the Male Athlete Triad (MAT) conditions: low energy availability (EA), bone mineral density (BMD), and testosterone in male collegiate athletes from different sports. Participants included 44 (age, 20.4 ± 0.2 years; body mass index, 25.3 1.3 kg/m2) 7 sports (cross country, soccer, basketball, wrestling, track, golf, baseball). Resting metabolic rate, 3-day food intake, 7-day exercise expenditure, composition, reproductive hormones...
