some important compatibility that occur with exercise is increase of the capillary density or angiogenesis. vascular endothelial growth factor (vegf) have mitogen role for endothelial cells and consider an important intermediary angiogenesis process. the purpose of this study was comparing the effect of two type of physical activity on response of serum vegf-a in non-athlete men. for this aim 1...

Background – We have previously demonstrated opposite e¡ ects of exercise training in stable and progressive pulmonary hypertension (PH). Here we investigated cellular changes which may underlie the opposite e¡ ects of exercise training by focusing on right ventricular myolament protein phosphorylation and function. Methods and results – Histological analyses revealed exercise training in progr...

QUESTION Is progressive resistance exercise a safe and effective form of exercise to improve glycaemic control in people with type 2 diabetes? DESIGN Systematic review with meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials. PARTICIPANTS People with type 2 diabetes mellitus. INTERVENTION Progressive resistance exercise. OUTCOME MEASURES The primary outcome was glycaemic control measured as p...

QUESTION Is progressive resistance training as effective as aerobic training of similar duration in sedentary older adults with diabetes mellitus? DESIGN A randomised trial with concealed allocation, assessor blinding and intention-to-treat analysis. PARTICIPANTS Sixty people with Type 2 diabetes mellitus with glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) between 8% and 10% in the past month. INTERVEN...

purpose lipocalin-2 (lcn2), a newer adipocyte-secreted acute phase protein, was recently reported to be correlated with potential effects on obesity and inflammation. the reaction of this protein to progressive exercise has not been evaluated yet. this study was designed to compare the serum lcn2 and high-sensitivity c-reactive protein (hs-crp) levels after participating in an acute bout of tre...

1. The initial rate of change of pressure at the mouth (dP/dt) during a brief occlusion of the airways at the beginning of inspiration has been estimated in nine healthy subjects at rest, during exercise and during the first 2 min of recovery. Exercise was carried out with progressively increasing loads to the maximum tolerated (progressive exercise) and also for a period of 6 min at a constant...
