Acute Effects of Vitamin D 3 Supplementation on Muscle Strength in Judoka Athletes: A Randomized Placebo-Controlled, Double-Blind Trial
(2016)Objective: Indoor athletes have been shown to be prone to vitamin D 3 deficiency. The aim of the study was to examine the acute effects of vitamin D supplementation on muscle function using isokinetic dynamometry. Design: ... -
Better knee function after surgical repair of acute quadriceps tendon rupture in comparison to acute patellar tendon rupture
(2019)Introduction: The purpose of this study was to determine if there is a difference in knee function between patients with quadriceps tendon rupture and patellar tendon rupture after acute surgical repair. Our hypothesis was ... -
Biofunctional Feed Supplemented with By-products of Olive Oil Production Improves Tissue Antioxidant Profile of Lambs
(2020)Background/Aim: Olive mill wastewater (OMW) is a byproduct of olive oil production. The aim of the study was to estimate the redox profile of lambs' vital organs after consumption of an OMW-supplemented feed. Materials and ... -
Effects of dietary grape pomace supplementation on performance, carcass traits and meat quality of lambs
(2018)Background/Aim: A previous study revealed that the inclusion of grape pomace (GP) in the diet for growing lambs had beneficial effects on the redox status and fecal microbiota. Herein, we investigated the effect of GP ... -
The effects of different passive static stretching intensities on recovery from unaccustomed eccentric exercise – A randomized controlled trial
(2018)Effects of passive static stretching intensity on recovery from unaccustomed eccentric exercise of right knee extensors was investigated in 30 recreationally active males randomly allocated into 3 groups: high-intensity ... -
Effects of sheep/goat whey protein dietary supplementation on the redox status of rats
(2018)The purpose of the present study is to estimate the effects of sheep/goat whey protein dietary supplementation on the redox status of blood and tissues of rats. Twelve male Wistar rats were divided into the control group ... -
The effects of training with high-speed interval running on muscle performance are modulated by slope
(2021)We examined changes in selected muscle performance parameters after 8 weeks of interval training using two opposite running inclinations. We hypothesized that the uphill training will affect endurance muscle performance ... -
Epidural bleeding after ACL reconstruction under regional anaesthesia: A case report
(2009)Introduction: Epidural bleeding as a complication of catheterization or epidural catheter removal is often associated with perioperative thromboprophylaxis especially in adult reconstructive surgery. Case presentation: We ... -
Knee isokinetic test scores and functional hop tests findings: Are they related
(2020)Both isokinetic testing and functional tests are commonly used during the rehabilitation programme of individuals. Limited information exists in the literature, regarding the correlation between these two testing methods. ... -
A lightly roasted coffee extract improves blood and tissue redox status in rats through enhancement of GSH biosynthesis
(2019)Coffee is a highly consumed beverage with many putative beneficial health effects, however these often come from observational studies. In the current work, a lightly roasted coffee extract that has previously been reported ... -
Novel feed including olive oil mill wastewater bioactive compounds enhanced the redox status of lambs
(2018)Background/Aim: The aim of the present study was to investigate the antioxidant effects of a feed supplemented with polyphenolic additives from olive mill wastewater (OMW) on lambs. Materials and Methods: Lambs received ... -
The redox-dependent regulation of satellite cells following aseptic muscle trauma (SpEED): Study protocol for a randomized controlled trial
(2019)Background: Muscle satellite cells (SCs) are crucial for muscle regeneration following muscle trauma. Acute skeletal muscle damage results in inflammation and the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) which may be ... -
Respiratory, cardiac and metabolic responses during electrical muscle stimulation in quadriceps muscle versus comparable voluntary muscle contractions
(2021)Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS) and voluntary muscle contraction (VMC) are both acceptable rehabilitative modalities to preserve muscle strength loss. The study aimed to compare respiratory, metabolic, and cardiac ... -
Seven months of aerobic intradialytic exercise training can prevent muscle loss in haemodialysis patients: an ultrasonography study
(2022)Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of 7-month intradialytic exercise training (IDE) on vastus lateralis (VL) muscle architecture, functional capacity and quality of life in stable haemodialysis (HD) patients. ... -
Tuberculous pyomyositis: A re-emerging entity of many faces
(2016)Tuberculosis (TB) has become a global concern due to its increasing incidence, particularly in immunocompromised patients, closely following the migratory patterns of populations. TB pyomyositis is a rare extrapulmonary ... -
Unilateral Plyometric Training is Superior to Volume-Matched Bilateral Training for Improving Strength, Speed and Power of Lower Limbs in Preadolescent Soccer Athletes
(2020)This study compared the effects of unilateral and bilateral plyometric training on strength, sprint performance and lower limb power. Sixty-eight preadolescent soccer athletes were randomly assigned to a unilateral plyometric ...
