Individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI) report high levels of neuropathic pain. Current treatment options are primarily pharmaceutical, despite their limited effectiveness. Exercise may reduce neuropathic pain among persons with SCI; however, the optimal dose of exercise required to elicit analgesic effects remains unknown. The purpose of this study was to compare neuropathic pain intensity, pai...... hiện toàn bộ
Impact of Exercise in Hypoxia on Inflammatory Cytokines in Adults: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysisSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 9 - Trang 1-14 - 2023

Both acute exercise and environmental hypoxia may elevate inflammatory cytokines, but the inflammatory response in the hypoxic exercise is remaining unknown. We performed this systematic review and meta-analysis to examine the effect of exercise in hypoxia on inflammatory cytokines, including IL-6, TNF-α and IL-10. PubMed, Scopus and Web of Science were searched to identify the original articles t...... hiện toàn bộ
Effects of a High-Volume 7-Week Pectoralis Muscle Stretching Training on Muscle Function and Muscle StiffnessSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 9 - Trang 1-10 - 2023

There is evidence that high-volume static stretching training of the lower limbs can increase the range of motion (ROM) while decreasing muscles stiffness. However, to date, there is no evidence on the effects of upper limb stretching training or its effect mechanism. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the effects of a comprehensive 7-week static stretching training program of the pectoral...... hiện toàn bộ
Pacing Behaviour Development and Acquisition: A Systematic ReviewSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 8 - Trang 1-17 - 2022

The goal-directed decision-making process of effort distribution (i.e. pacing) allows individuals to efficiently use energy resources as well as to manage the impact of fatigue on performance during exercise. Given the shared characteristics between pacing behaviour and other skilled behaviour, it was hypothesized that pacing behaviour would adhere to the same processes associated with skill acqui...... hiện toàn bộ
Running economy: measurement, norms, and determining factorsSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 1 - Trang 1-15 - 2015
Kyle R Barnes, Andrew E Kilding
Running economy (RE) is considered an important physiological measure for endurance athletes, especially distance runners. This review considers 1) how RE is defined and measured and 2) physiological and biomechanical factors that determine or influence RE. It is difficult to accurately ascertain what is good, average, and poor RE between athletes and studies due to variation in protocols, gas-ana...... hiện toàn bộ
The Impact of Pre-Exercise Carbohydrate Meal on the Effects of Yerba Mate Drink on Metabolism, Performance, and Antioxidant Status in Trained Male CyclistsSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 8 - Trang 1-15 - 2022

The consumption of yerba mate (YM), a source of antioxidants, in a fasted state increases fatty acid oxidation (FATox) during low–moderate-intensity exercise and improves performance in high-intensity exercise. However, the impact of a pre-exercise carbohydrate (CHO) meal on YM effects during exercise is unknown.
We investigated the effects of yerba mate drink (YMD) consumed in the fasted state (...... hiện toàn bộ
Inspiration for the Future: The Role of Inspiratory Muscle Training in Cystic FibrosisSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 5 - Trang 1-8 - 2019
Ren-Jay Shei, John D. Lowman, Melitta A. McNarry, Robert L. Dekerlegand, Kelly A. Mackintosh
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an inherited, multi-system, life-limiting disease characterized by a progressive decline in lung function, which accounts for the majority of CF-related morbidity and mortality. Inspiratory muscle training (IMT) has been proposed as a rehabilitative strategy to treat respiratory impairments associated with CF. However, despite evidence of therapeutic benefits in healthy and...... hiện toàn bộ
