Aims: Obesity is associated with cardiovascular disease. Today, changing childhood lifestyle may affect on cardiovascular diseases factors. The goal of this research was to determine the evaluation of changes in lipid profiles, insulin resistance and serum FGF21 following three types of exercise training in sedentary obese children. Materials and Methods: Sixty obese boys 8-12 years old with z...

Exercise training causes increased oxidative stress. Pistacia Atlantica Extract (Mastic) is known to have a protective effect against oxidative stress and inflammation. We examined the effects of exercise training with and without Pistacia Atlantica extract administration on antioxidant markers in vistar rats. Twenty-eight Vistar female rats (six to eight weeks old, 150-200 g weight) allocate...

abstract         background and objective: scientific evidence reveals that the density of skeletal muscle microcirculations decreases in the patients with chronic heart failure. therefore, this study aimed to determine the impact of submaximal aerobic exercise training on restoration of fast/slow-twitch muscle fibers microcirculation in rats with myocardial infarction.          methods: in thi...

regarding the increasing prevalence of cardiovascular disease (cvd) especially myocardial infarction (mi), and the insufficiency of information in the field of physical rehabilitation, this study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of a course of physical rehabilitation on the psychological status and physical characteristics f cardiac patients. in this study, the effect of 8 weeks exercise ...

Background and Aims: Post exercise proteinuria and increased urinary Gamma-Glutamyl transferase (GGT) levels can be indicative of exercise-induced renal damage. The aim of this investigation was to study the effect of one session of intensive training on renal tubular injury markers and compare their values to those 6 hours after training, for evaluating tubular damage after intensive ...

introduction: the aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of aerobic exercise on brain natriuretic peptide (bnp) and c-reactive protein (crp) levels in women with cardiovascular diseases. materials and methods: in this semi experimental study, thirty female patients with at least one coronary artery stenosis (more than70%) were chosen and divided into two groups of aerobic training (n=15)...

abstract        background and objective: doxorubicin (dox) is an effective anticancer drug. it has been shown that  a short-term exercise performed prior to dox-treatment has no effect on cardiotoxicity in young rats. in the present study, old and young rats were evaluated to determine the protective effects of pre-treatment with short-term exercise on dox-induced oxidative damage in cardiac t...

visfatin is a newly discovered adipokine which increases along with obesity. it is not clear whether rhythmic aerobic endurance exercise training which induces changes in adipose tissue and blood lipid might decrease the plasma visfatin level. the aim of this study was to examine the effect of rhythmic aerobic endurance exercise training on rest visfatin levels some metabolic risk factors in ob...

conclusions overall, the results of this study indicate that intermittent exercise reduces the plasma leptin level. in addition, this reduction is significantly correlated to the glucose level in the blood. the continuous exercise was shown to have no effects on the plasma leptin level, and there was no relationship between the glucose and leptin levels. results the results demonstrated that se...
