The aim of the study is to investigate the acute effects of trampoline exercises on balance, proprioception, vertical jump and cognitive functions. As a result of the study, it is thought that trampoline exercises will affect balance, proprioception, vertical jump, cognitive functions and myotonometric properties of the muscle more positively than walking.
Exercise is a cornerstone of health care helping to improve and maintain a good organ functionality, including vascular function, in health and disease. About twenty years ago, the introduction of high-intensity training has been a milestone in the evolution of exercise therapy by demonstrating the trainability of individuals independent of age and state of disease. Today, its practical implementation still faces barriers, such as lower physical and mental tolerance of exercise, long-term adherence and lack of individualization of training for optimal adaptations. The proposed project is the logical next step to introduce non-linear periodized exercise training (NLPE), a method widely established in elite athletes, in exercise training of sedentary individuals. NLPE alternatingly involves person-centred periodization of training cycles and regeneration with high-intensity stimuli. It induces a broader range of physiological adaptations than moderate-intensity training while keeping a high compliance and without increasing the risk of overreaching. A study of patients with chronic-obstructive-pulmonary-disease and a study with resistance training of older adults indicated promising pulmonary and muscular effects. However, the effectiveness of NLPE to maintain and improve vascular function has not yet been assessed, although this may carry a huge clinical and socioeconomic potential by contributing to the reduction of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. VascuFit applies an 8-week training intervention to assess the effects of NLPE on the function of the vascular endothelium, measured by the non-invasive gold-standard method brachial arterial flow-mediated dilation (baFMD), in a sample of sedentary aging adults with cardiovascular risk factors. In addition, it will be the first study to measure training effects on a cluster of micro-ribonucleic acids (miRNAs) regulating key molecular pathways of endothelial (dys-)function. Thus, VascuFit aims to explore the potential of clinical and molecular biomarkers for the monitoring of individual vascular adaptability to a specific type of exercise. As a first step, this pilot-project is supposed to deliver proof-of-concept. Furthermore, it will generate important hypotheses to be addressed by exercise physiologists, medical professionals and biologists concerned with the optimization of individual training adaptations as well as utility and implementation of targeted training approaches in the health care of aging adults. VascuFit aims to demonstrate the potential of NLPE as a training regimen to improve vascular function in sedentary individuals with elevated cardiovascular risk. This project may be the initial spark to raise exercise training to the next level, which is clearly necessary to sustainably strengthen the vascular capacities of "young" aging individuals.
The premenstrual syndrome includes physical and psychological symptoms that occur at the end menstrual cycle and exercise is one of the ways to reduce symptoms. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of a regular 8-week aerobic exercise program on psychological symptoms of premenstrual syndrome.
The aim of this study is to determine the effects of commercially produced new generation smart step board and step-aerobic exercises for 6 weeks on the functional capacity and physical performance of young sedentary individuals.
This study was planned to examine the effect of aerobic exercises on depression in geriatric individuals with a diagnosis of depression.
Cumulative evidence indicates that a single bout of exercise has beneficial impacts on memory in young adults. From a physiological perspective, acute exercise leads to changes of heart rate variability (HRV), which is associated with memory retrieval process. From a psychological perspective, acute exercise increases the arousal level and thus facilitates cognitive processing including memory storage and retrieval. Such HRV- and/or arousal-based effects of exercise on memory could be differed by the time of day in young adults based on their circadian rhythms of HRV. Moreover, young adults prefer afternoon or evening to morning in their circadian rhythms, demonstrating less wakefulness and lower memory performance in the morning relative to afternoon. Based on the potential psychophysiological mechanisms, exercise could impact young adults' memory differently by the time of day. The investigators aim to 1) determine the extent to which the time of day modulates how moderate-intensity cardiovascular exercise impacts verbal-auditory and visuospatial short- and long-term memory in young adults, and 2) consider potential psychological and physiological markers that may mediate exercise's effects on cognitive performance. As cognitive benefits of exercise might differ by the time of day, it is important to investigate such interaction and make the right recommendations of the timing of exercise for young adults in academic settings.
Dysmenorrhea is defined as the pain and discomfort of women during the menstrual period. Kinesiological taping (KT) and aerobic exercise (AE) are effective methods for dysmenorrhea. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of KT and AE on pain, attitude, depression, and quality of life in women with dysmenorrhoea. Forty-five women with dysmenorrhea wıll randomly be divided into three groups as KT group (n=15), AE group (n=15) and control group (n=15). In KT Group, 6 sessions of KT will be applied, starting on the 14th day of the menstrual cycle and 2 times per week for 3 weeks until the end of the cycle. In the AE group, walking and climbing stairs will be given during the menstrual cycle, 3 days a week, 45 minutes. No application will be applied to the control group. All groups will be evaluated with Beck Depression Scale (BDS), Mcgill Pain Questionnaire (MPQ), Menstrual Attitude Scale (MAS), and Short Form- 36 (SF-36) before and after the intervention.
Maintaining an adequate state of vascular function is an important element for the maintenance of cardiovascular well-being. Several training plans involving both active and passive engagement by the muscles have been proposed with the aim of improving vascular function. At local level, i.e., at the level of the arteries that supply the muscles directly involved in training, significant improvements in vascular function have been found. These improvements are more noticeable after active training than with a passive training regimen, such as passive static stretching. On the contrary, at the systemic level the effects of active or passive training are less clear and, above all, it is not evident whether there is a difference in the effects induced at the level of vascular function in arteries supplying muscles not directly involved in training. The aim of the study is to clarify the local and systemic effect of an active training protocol (single leg knee extension, SLKE) and of a passive training protocol (passive static stretching training, PST) applied to the lower limbs lasting 8 weeks on the local (femoral artery) and systemic (brachial artery) vascular function.
To compare the difference of effectiveness for stable COPD patients with poor nutritional status among three groups named health education, upper and lower limb exercises, and oral nutritional supplements. Then formulate the best pulmonary rehabilitation guidance strategy according to the result of this trial.
