the aim of the present study was to examine the effect of one session of swimming and running exercise on the appetite and calorie intake in healthy girls. the research design was a cross – sectional one and 12 female university students (mean age 22.5±1.3 yr, weight 56.07±5.46 kg, body fat percent 27.125±8.316, bmi 21.175±2.68 kg/m2) voluntarily participated in three modes of control, swimming...

body weight is influenced by both food intake and energy expenditure. acylated ghrelin enhances appetite, and its circulating level is suppressed by growth hormone. data on the acylated ghrelin responses to exercise of different intensities in obese individuals are currently not available. this study examined the effects of an intermittent exercise protocol on acylated ghrelin levels and hunger...

the aim of this study was to determine the effect of rest intervals between two resistance exercise protocols (with similar volume and intensity) on plasma antioxidant capacity (tac) and creatine kinase (ck). for this purpose, 20 untrained subjects voluntarily participated in the research and randomly assigned to one of the two resistance exercise groups with 2-minute rest interval and 4-minute...

objective: exercise activity could be an amendment to polycystic ovary syndrome (pcos). however the acute and chronic effects of various exercise intensities on serum leptin levels are ambiguous. this study investigates the acute and chronic responses of various intensities of exercise on serum leptin levels and weights of female rats with pcos. methods: in this semi-empirical study, 80 adult w...

the present study aimed at evaluating the effect of aerobic exercise in carbon black particulates air pollution on tlr4 and tnf-α gene expression in male rats. 24 male wistar rats (mean body mass 279.29+26.97 gr) were randomly divided into 4 groups: a) control, b) aerobic exercise, c) pollution, d) exercise+pollution. a particulates injector and falounak chamber were used to expose the rats to ...

the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of one session of continuous exercise on a treadmill on hsp72 and tac levels of the hippocampus of male wistar rats. for this purpose, 20 male wistar rats (weight 165±1 gr. and age 6 to 8 weeks old) were assigned randomly into four groups: one control group and three acute endurance training groups (groups 1,2 and 3 were killed 30 minutes, 4 h...

conclusions it seems that in people with type 2 diabetes, acute aerobic exercise can decrease the plasma levels of glucose, possibly through increasing orexin a. in addition, negative energy balance is necessary to decrease the levels of insulin and insulin resistance during acute aerobic exercise. results the analysis of findings in p ≤ 0.05 indicated that acute aerobic exercise caused a signi...

results no significant changes were observed in serum potassium, phosphorus and calcium levels at the end of the passive exercise program compared to the baseline. however, phosphorus levels were significantly decreased in the active exercise program (p < 0.05). moreover, the mean diastolic blood pressure was significantly decreased after the passive exercise (p = 0.039). passive exercise did n...

this study represents an attempt to determine the prevalence of exercise-induced bronchospasm among soccer player children. a total of 234 soccer player boys of all soccer schools from shahr-rey enrolled in this study. they did not have any history of a recent or chronic respiratory tract disease, a history of allergic diseases, and history of bronchodilator drugs consumption during the 24 hour...

introduction: the effect of regular exercise in decreasing the incidence of heart diseases is well known. the abuse of anabolic androgenic steroids (aas) has been associated with cardiovascular disorders. uncoupling proteins (ucps) transport protons across the inner mitochondrial membrane thereby proton gradient can be diminished by the action of ucps. this process will result in the uncoupling...
