To determine the acute effect of a single high-intensity interval training (HIIT) session on testosterone and cortisol levels in healthy individuals, systematic search studies was conducted MEDLINE Web Science databases from inception to February 2020. Meta-analyses were performed establish HIIT immediately after session; 30 min 60 (primary outcomes); 120 min, 180 24 h (secondary outcomes, only...

Most studies on the stress-responsiveness of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis have focused on glucocorticoids, while few studies have investigated the adrenal secretion of dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS), which is unique to primates. Monkeys were chair-restrained for 2h per day for seven consecutive days, and blood samples were collected upon placement in the chair, and at 1...

Nine normotensive and 7 borderline hypertensive women were studied to investigate the effects of an acute bout of resistance exercise on recovery blood pressure. The investigation was conducted over 3 sessions. During the first session, subjects were assessed for muscular strength while performing the following exercises: chest press, seated leg press, biceps brachii curl, knee extension, and t...

The aim of this study was to compare the acute hemodynamic responses during high-intensity intermittent exercise (HIIE) session compared with moderate-intensity continuous exercise (MICE) session in patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction (HFREF). Thirteen patients with HFREF (age, 59 ± 6 years; left ventricular ejection fraction, 27% ± 6%; New York Heart Association class I t...

This study aimed to investigate the impact of one aerobic and resistance training session on platelet count, mean platelet volume, prothrombin time (PT), activated partial prothrombin time (APTT), and blood clots in non-athletic women. The sample consisted of 45 non-athlete3045 years old women in Ilam; they were randomly divided into three groups of 15 subjects: two experimental groups (resista...

BACKGROUND Aerobic interval exercise training has greater benefits on cardiovascular function as compared with aerobic continuous exercise training. OBJECTIVE The present study aimed at analyzing the effects of both exercise modalities on acute and subacute hemodynamic responses of healthy rats. METHODS Thirty male rats were randomly assigned into three groups as follows: continuous exercis...

during repetitive tasks (such as running, walking and tapping), music can effect on body movement rhythm. the purpose of this study is investigated the effect of music meter and tempo on cycling speed. therefore, seventeen female physical education students with 22.33±1.22 age, 57.23±10.30 weight, 22.09±3.5 body mass index and 160.55±4.6 height were selected and examined during four sessions (e...

Acupuncture at Fengchi (GB20) in the posterior neck improves vertigo. However, subarachnoid hemorrhage and spinal epidural hematoma have been reported to occur after acupuncture in the posterior neck. Therefore, in the present study, we assessed the safety of acupuncture at Fengchi. Laboratory tests and adverse event reports were used to evaluate the safety of different acupuncture manipulation...

OBJECTIVES We report on our initial data from a prospective study to determine the efficacy of high-frequency magnetic stimulation on the sacral root (MSSR) for the intractable post-radical prostatectomy, stress urinary incontinence (SUI). METHODS A total of 14 men with persistent SUI after a radical prostatectomy underwent treatment once every 2 weeks over a 40-week period for a total of 20 ...

BACKGROUND Active inversion and eversion ankle range of motion (ROM) is widely used to evaluate treatment effect, however the error associated with the available measurement protocols is unknown. This study aimed to establish the reliability of goniometry as used in clinical practice. METHODS 30 subjects (60 ankles) with a wide variety of ankle conditions participated in this study. Three obs...
