Filter by:This study will investigate whether an 11-minute bodyweight exercise session can improve short-term glycemic control. Glycemic control refers to the process of how the body regulates blood sugar. The process can be measured in different ways. This study will use a small device called a continuous glucose monitor to measure changes in glucose levels over a 24-hour period. Participants will complete two trials and the investigators will compare glycemic control after the exercise session and a control period that does not involve exercise. Food intake will be controlled such that each participant will consume the same diet in both conditions. This study will help determine whether a single session of bodyweight exercise affects glycemic control.
Blocking histamine H1/H2 receptors blunts chronic endurance training adaptations. The current study addresses a twofold research question: "What is the influence of endurance training (1) and histamine H1 and H2 signaling (2) on the gene expression in human skeletal muscle." Results from this study will yield more insights into the molecular mechanisms of adaptations to exercise training.
Pes planus is a common foot problem since childhood, which may include loss of height of the medial longitudinal arch, which is the most important arch supporting the foot, valgus of the hindfoot, and abduction of the midfoot relative to the hindfoot. Muscle shortness, increased joint laxity with obesity, W-shaped sitting, male gender and genetic background are among the factors that can increase the incidence and severity of pes planus in the pediatric population. It has been shown in different studies that pes planus is carried into adulthood at a rate of 4-23%. It is known that there is oxygen consumption from the body during muscle contraction. For this reason, it has been shown in the literature that muscle oxygenation is better and the performance of the individual is better in exercises combined with breathing exercises in the exercise program. Therefore, the investigators hypothesized whether foot shortening exercises combined with breathing would have an effect on muscular activation during foot shortening exercises. It is seen that there is a limited number of studies in the literature evaluating the effect of breathing exercises and combined foot exercises on the activation of the muscles around the feet. For this reason, the aim of this study is to examine the effect of combined respiratory foot shortening exercises on the muscular activations of the foot circumference in individuals with flat feet. Two-way repeated analyses of variance will use to determine the statistical significance of Abductor Hallucis Longus, Tibialis Anterior, and Peroneus Longus electromyography activity. Participants: Ten participants with pes planus.The participants will perform Short Foot Exercises with and without respiratory exercises in sitting and standing positions. Main Outcome Measures: Surface electromyography will use to measure the activity of the Abductor Hallucis Longus, Tibialis anterior, Peroneus Longus. Respiratory exercises may be an effective method for reducing compensatory Tibialis Anterior activity and increasing Abductor Hallucis Longus muscle activity during Short Foot Exercises for individuals with pes planus.
The aim of this study was to examine the effects of a 6-week hybrid telerehabilitation exercise program on sleep quality, depression and quality of life of university students with physical inactivity.
The overall aim of this project is to investigate if the responsiveness to chronic resistance training is dependent on the muscle typology. In a second aim we will investigate the most optimal training frequency for slow-twitchers and fast-twitchers. For the latter we hypothesize that slow-twitchers might cope better with higher frequencies and higher volumes compared to fast-twitchers. Male and female adult participants (18-45y) will be recruited. The subjects' muscle typology will be non-invasively estimated in the leg muscles by measurement of muscle carnosine using H-MRS. In total 21 subjects (11 slow and 10 fast subjects) will participate. Subjects will be assigned to a whole-body resistance training exercise protocol of 9 weeks in wich arm A and leg A will train 3 times per week and arm B and leg B will train 2 times per week. Before and following the training period, subjects will be subjected to different measurements (fitness level, muscle volume, strength tests, blood sampling, muscle biopsies).
This study aims to test whether sleep improvements, following 6 weeks of high-intensity interval training exercise among adult women exposed to a traumatic event, are mediated by improvements in heart rate variability or decreased anxiety and hyperarousal symptoms.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of isolated chronic exercise in hypoxia and combined exercise in hypoxia with a low carbohydrate diet on hypoxia-induced transcription factor (HIF1-α); glycaemic control and cardiovascular risk factors in patients with type 2 diabetes.
the investigators aim is the effectiveness of the tele-rehabilitation exercise program and home exercise program applied to sedentary adults with has shortness of hamstring muscle group
Celiac disease (CD) is an immunological disorder that mainly affects the small intestine, generating an inflammatory process in response to the presence of gluten (a protein). Autoimmune diseases are part of a group of diseases that are difficult to diagnose without a specific protocol or consensus to detect them due to the number of symptoms and diseases with which it has a relationship. The incidence of CD in Spain -according to data from the rest of the European Economic Community, since there is no study on incidence in Spain- is assumed to be approximately 1 per 100 live births. It is more frequent in women, with a 2:1 ratio. The only treatment consists of a STRICT GLUTEN-FREE DIET FOR LIFE. This results in the disappearance of symptoms, normalization of serology and recovery of intestinal villi. Failure to follow the diet can lead to important complications which, especially in adulthood, can manifest themselves in the form of osteopenia, osteoporosis and a high risk of neoplasms in the digestive tract, mainly. The main objective is to achieve a physical and physiological improvement in menopausal or post-menopausal celiac women. The specific objectives will be to know the influence of a dietary-nutritional program combined with physical exercise in menopausal or post-menopausal celiac women on: - Physical condition (strength, endurance, functional autonomy...). - Body composition. - Psychological aspects. - Physiological parameters (heart rate, maximum oxygen consumption, blood analysis...).
This study aimed to explore the effects of a partnered multicomponent exercise program on improving the physical function and sense of well-being of elderly people in Long-term Care Facilities (LTCFs).
