Filter by:The increase in the practice of running has encouraged a proliferation of studies evaluating the impact of this sport on health. A number of these studies have looked at the influence of endurance events on the immune system. After prolonged exercise, a systemic inflammatory syndrome sets in, with repercussions for the functioning of the immune system. The number of lymphocytes in the blood is reduced, the function of natural killer (NK) cells is impaired and secretory immunity is impaired. During this period of immunosuppression, often referred to as the 'open window', the host may be more susceptible to micro-organisms that bypass the first line of defence. The invetigators' hypothesis is therefore that ultratrailers are overexposed to the risk of infection due to immunodepression resulting from practising this sport. In order to support this hypothesis, the investigators would like to look at infectious complications in general and ear-nose and throat episodes (rhinitis, pharyngitis, laryngitis, etc.) in particular, which are the most common infections encountered in primary care, along with urinary tract infections.
Some researches have found that gait posture velocity have influence on kinematic parameters. However, how the gait velocity and posture will influence kinematic parameters remain unclear. In addition to walking, running is one of the most daily activities of people. The purpose of this research is to find out the influence of gait velocity and running to kinematic parameters . To do this, it will provide a reference for future prospective studies or investigations and make us fully understand the impact of gait velocity and running to kinematic parameters of gait.
