Background There is conflicting evidence on the associations between participation in vigorous sports, health habits, familial factors and subsequent mortality. We investigated all-cause mortality health-related behaviour among former elite athletes their brothers. Methods The of Finnish male athletes, who had represented Finland 1920 1965 (n=900) age-matched brothers (n=900), was followed from time when athlete started an career until 31 December 2015. age-adjusted HRs were calculated by a...
The objectives of this study were to investigate: 1) whether there morning-to-evening differences in short-term maximal performance and 2) the impact prolonged specific warm-up on diurnal variations young basketball players. Fifteen players both sexes (Male = 8; Female 7; age: 14.4 ± 0.46 yr; weight: 64.7 7.1 kg; height: 175.2 6.6 cm; BMI: 21.1 1.9 kg/m2) completed following tests: CMJ with without arm swing, Lane Agility Drill, Zig-Zag agility test ball, Sprint 20 m ball passage at 5 10 m....
The effect of a history competitive sports on later use alcohol and occurrence alcohol-related diseases is poorly known. We investigated how elite level was associated with consumption in middle-age morbidity mortality.The deaths were followed using national registers from 1970 to 2008 among Finnish male former athletes (n = 2202) matched controls 1403) alive (mean age 45.1 yr). Hazard ratios calculated by Cox proportional hazards model. In 1985, surviving participants questionnaire-reported...
Irisin is a myokine with potential role in cardiometabolic diseases, but previous studies have described inconsistencies between serum irisin and physical activity (PA). Our aim was to analyze the relationship leisure-time PA (LTPA) large sample of general adult population, secondarily, evaluate its two PA-related biomarkers (HDL cholesterol resistin).A cross-sectional study nested "CDC Canary Islands" cohort participants (n = 3827, 18-75 years, 60% women).PA collected by administering...
Objectives Masters athletes due to their lifelong engagement in sport represent a unique group study motivation for regular physical activity, but there is less scientific data on the motives masters athletes. Therefore, aim of this was evaluate association age, sex, education, nationality, competitive background and training amount with track field Methods 811 (254 women) aged 35–89 years participated European Veterans Athletics Championships year 2000. Sport were assessed questionnaire...
Abstract It is not known whether decrease in physical activity (PA) associated with binge drinking among former athletes. The purpose of this study was to investigate the reciprocal associations between PA and use alcohol athletes controls at four time points. Furthermore, we examined there were longitudinal latent profiles related alcohol, smoking during follow‐up. Finnish male elite ( n = 1633) matched 1099) questionnaire‐reported their PA, consumption points 1985, 1995, 2001 2008. Former...
Abstract The impact of a history competitive sports on later smoking behaviour and occurrence chronic pulmonary diseases is poorly known. We investigated how elite level predicted disease morbidity mortality. Chronic incidence was assessed from national hospital cause‐of‐death registers 1970 to 2015 among Finnish male former athletes ( n = 2078) matched controls 1453) alive in (mean age 45.0 years). Hazard ratios (HRs) were calculated by Cox proportional hazards model. In 1985, cohort...
Diabetes and diabetes-related diseases or health problems are global issues, they cause human distress great expenditures in a society. Therefore, diabetes physical activity research is remarkable from viewpoint of individual public especially during the COVID-19 pandemic beyond. In Corona-changing world it important to prioritize promotion strengthen scientific highlight significance benefits for improving management (especially type 2), as well prevent increase burden diabetes, other...
