Filter by:This quality improvement study aims to implement a supervised, multi-component exercise program for patients type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) from a primary care practice. Rosemount Clinic patients with T2DM will be invited to participate in free group exercise classes as part of a 3-month program of structured exercise to enhance adherence to the Canadian Diabetes Association (CDA) clinical best practice guidelines. Interested patients will attend an initial 1-hour information session and then will complete short, monthly questionnaires about their current quality of life and experience with the exercise program. Participation is voluntary and patients may drop out at any time.
The aim of this study is to evaluate differences in rate of recovery between young and middle-aged men after prolonged (downhill) running. Thirty healthy young (n=15, 18-30 y) and middle-aged (n=15, 35-50y) men will be recruited for this study. Participants will perform 60 minutes of downhill run at 65% of their maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max). Recovery parameters will be evaluated during 48 hours following the downhill protocol, and will include changes in performance tests, inflammatory markers, muscle integrity and heart-rate variability. Questioners will be used to evaluate muscle soreness and fatigue. We hypothesized that middle-aged males will have longer rate of recovery following the downhill running protocol, as compared to younger age males.
The main objective of the present study was to evaluate the effects of action observation (AO), visual mirror feedback (VMF), motor imagery (MI) combined with an orofacial exercise program in asymptomatic subjects.
There is evidence to suggest that responsiveness to exercise training programmes can be expected to be influenced by changes in resting fat oxidation, an important factor in the aetiology of obesity. Our previous work has shown that oral supplementation with inulin propionate ester (IPE) reduces intra-abdominal fat and prevents weight gain and that oral propionate intake enhances resting fat oxidation. The effects of IPE combined with exercise training on resting fat oxidation and body fatness are unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of 4-weeks IPE supplementation, in combination with a moderate intensity exercise training programme, on whole body fat oxidation and on plasma GLP-1 and PYY.
This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of a 6-week core stabilization exercise (CSE) program with and without kinesio taping on pain, fatigue, health status, quality of life, sleep quality and depression in woman with fibromyalgia. Participants were allocated into two groups as CSE and CSE plus kinesio taping group. Pain, fatigue, health status, quality of life, sleep quality and depression were assessed at the baseline and after 6-weeks treatment.
This study compares fuel selection during eccentric and concentric cycling, with (placebo) or without glucose ingestion during exercise. After a 2-week familiarization and habituation with the ergometers, subjects will complete four experimental conditions in a randomized order: concentric with placebo, eccentric with placebo, concentric with glucose, eccentric with glucose.
Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease is the most common cause of chronic liver diseases. The benign non-alcoholic fatty liver, characterized by excessive fat accumulation, can evolve into non-alcoholic steatohepatitis and liver cancer. The recommendation nowadays is a lifestyle change with physical exercise and diet to reduce liver fat and improve inflammation. Besides this, a leaky gut and dysbiosis have an impact on the liver, and exercise ameliorates the diversity of gut microbiota and permeability of the intestine. The aim of this study is to find out a link between exercise and the gut-liver axis regarding the stage of liver adiposity and define exercise-responsive gut microbiome in NAFLD patients
To prepare for a large scale-up study, the goal of this pilot implementation trial is to examine the feasibility of Movement-to-Music (M2M©) delivery mechanisms through two channels: 1) a group-based M2M© program conducted onsite at a local YMCA; and 2) a blended program that provides Y-M2M© and a home-based M2M© (B-M2M©) via videoconferencing. A key element of this pilot is to examine issues associated with participant-provider interactions, and to better understand the robustness of the technology to deliver a group-based (teleexercise) version of M2M© in the home setting.
A 2x2 randomized crossover of single dose malarone at rest and during moderate intensity exercise under controlled conditions of heat and humidity in healthy adult participants. Statistical analysis of AUC and Cmax will be performed to determine pharmacokinetic changes.
This study will evaluate the effect of one minute of resistance exercise per day on muscular strength in adults. Half of the participants will undergo a 12-week home-based resistance exercise programme, while the other half will continue their usual lifestyle behaviour.
