Filter by:Plant-based proteins contain several amino acids that are essential to signal growth, reconditioning, maintenance and preservation of skeletal muscle mass. This study aims to inform on the nutrient activation of muscle protein synthesis (MPS) by feeding a plant protein isolate equivalent to 0.33 g of protein per kilogram of body mass.
The aim of the study was to investigate the different effects of exercise types on inhibitory control in children with attention-deficit/ hyperactivity disorder.
This study aimed to evaluate the effects of intradialyic exercise on dialytic parameters, HRQL, and depression status in hemodialysis patients. A randomized controlled trial was conducted. Sixty-four participants were recruited using stratified random sampling and allocated with a 1:1 randomization ratio to either experimental group (EG, treated in odd weekdays, n = 32) or comparison group (CG, treated in even weekdays, n = 32). The EG received a 12-week intradialytic exercise, while the CG maintained usual lifestyles. Dialytic parameters, HRQL, and depression status were collected at baseline and at 12 weeks. The results indicated that there were no differences in changes of dialytic parameters from baseline between EG and CG. However, the EG had increased HRQL and reduced depression status at 12 weeks compared with the CG. A 12-week intradialytic exercise is safe, feasible and effective in improved HRQL and reduced depression status for hemodialysis patients.
Aiming to determine the effects of elastic band exercise on kinesiophobia, functional capacity, and depression after the total knee arthroplasty, the present study was designed and carried out as a randomized controlled trial study. The study was carried out between October 2019 and April 2020 in the Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Department of a training and research hospital.This study, the effects of elastic band exercise program on the pain, kinesiophobia, quality of life, depression, and functional capacity of TKA patients were examined. Elastic band exercise program significantly decreased the pain level, exercise fear, and depression level of patients and positively contributed to the quality of life and functional capacity.
Game on Philly is a multi-component out-of-school time intervention delivered by trained sport-based youth development coaches and health navigators using evidenced-based programming. The program evaluation assesses the impact of this minimal-risk intervention to reduce the prevalence of obesity-related health disparities in racial and ethnic minority middle school youth. The program is a virtual sport-based youth development program, supplemented with nutrition education. The program was modified due to Covid-19 and is entirely virtual. Using a quasi-experimental design, six schools are assigned to the intervention arm and six schools are assigned to the comparison arm. Participants in intervention schools receive access to daily, online after school programming, with live sessions with sports providers (via Zoom), weekly team meetings with a health coach (via Zoom), text-messages via the Remind app, and the monthly delivery of Activity Kits directly to their homes for six months. Comparison school participants receive access to the Game on Philly app with workout and sports content and receive one activity kit delivery at the start of the program. Parent-child dyads recruited from each school complete surveys at baseline and at the end of the 6-month program (follow-up). It is hypothesized that youth participating in the intervention will experience significantly greater increases in physical activity at the end of the 6-month intervention compared to youth participating in the comparison arm (primary outcome). Secondary outcomes will examine changes in dietary intake, self-efficacy for physical activity and positive youth development.
Neuromuscular exercise and taping are widely used in the rehabilitation of Patellofemoral Pain. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of corrective kinesio taping applied on patellofemoral joint and foot in addition to a progressive neuromuscular exercise program in women with Patellofemoral Pain on knee pain and muscle strength.
The main objective of this study is to analyse the effectiveness of core stability exercises to increase motor control, function and resistance strength of the abdominal muscles, compared to a traditional abdominal and trunk exercise program in semi-professionals soccer players
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a leading cause of disability worldwide that affects millions of Americans each year. Posttraumatic OA (PTOA) significantly impacts patients after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury and ACL reconstruction (ACLR) with approximately 50% of patients developing PTOA within 20 years of injury or surgery. Knee joint mechanical loading measured via physical activity (i.e. daily steps) is insufficient in individuals after ACLR compared to uninjured individuals. Establishing the beneficial effects of physical activity to promote optimal free-living knee joint mechanical loading and improve knee joint health will aid in the development of cost-effective interventions that prevent PTOA and health burden of the disease.
110 COPD patients who were participated in the PR program were included in the study. Resting Heart Rate , pulmonary functions, functional capacity, perception of dyspnea, quality of life and psychological symptoms compared before and after PR.
Selective exercise programs specific to muscle groups, with the workload to be done in line with the muscle's own structure, can enable more strength to be released with less fatigue in MS, and this increase in strength can increase balance and functional activities. to determine the effects of type training (selective exercise training), eccentric and concentric training on function, balance, fatigue and muscle architecture.
