Passive smoking reduces and vitamin C increases exercise-induced oxidative stress: Does this make passive smoking an anti-oxidant and vitamin C a pro-oxidant stimulus?
Theodorou, A. A.; Paschalis, V.; Kyparos, A.; Panayiotou, G.; Nikolaidis, M. G. (2014)The current interpretative framework states that, for a certain experimental treatment (usually a chemical substance) to be classified as "anti-oxidant", it must possess the property of reducing (or even nullifying) ... -
Physiological and performance adaptations of elite Greco-Roman wrestlers during a one-day tournament
Barbas, I.; Fatouros, I. G.; Douroudos, II; Chatzinikolaou, A.; Michailidis, Y.; Draganidis, D.; Jamurtas, A. Z.; Nikolaidis, M. G.; Parotsidis, C.; Theodorou, A.

(2011)The aim of this study was to determine the effects of a simulated one-day Greco-Roman wrestling tournament on selected performance and inflammatory status indices. Twelve competitive wrestlers (22.1 +/- A 1.3 years) completed ... -
Redox biology of exercise: an integrative and comparative consideration of some overlooked issues
Nikolaidis, M. G.; Kyparos, A.; Spanou, C.; Paschalis, V.; Theodorou, A. A.; Vrabas, I. S. (2012)The central aim of this review is to address the highly multidisciplinary topic of redox biology as related to exercise using an integrative and comparative approach rather than focusing on blood, skeletal muscle or humans. ... -
Reductive stress after exercise: The issue of redox individuality
Margaritelis, N. V.; Kyparos, A.; Paschalis, V.; Theodorou, A. A.; Panayiotou, G.; Zafeiridis, A.; Dipla, K.; Nikolaidis, M. G.; Vrabas, I. S. (2014)Exercise has been consistently used as an oxidant stimulus in redox biology studies. However, previous studies have focused on group differences and did not examine individual differences. As a result, it remains untested ... -
A single bout of downhill running transiently increases HOMA-IR without altering adipokine response in healthy adult women
Jamurtas, A. Z.; Garyfallopoulou, A.; Theodorou, A. A.; Zalavras, A.; Paschalis, V.; Deli, C. K.; Nikolaidis, M. G.; Fatouros, I. G.; Koutedakis, Y. (2013)Eccentric exercise-induced muscle damage may cause marked alterations in insulin sensitivity. However, it is not entirely known whether such alterations are also related to changes in adipokine levels. The aim of this study ... -
Stair Descending Exercise Using a Novel Automatic Escalator: Effects on Muscle Performance and Health-Related Parameters
Paschalis, V.; Theodorou, A. A.; Panayiotou, G.; Kyparos, A.; Patikas, D.; Grivas, G. V.; Nikolaidis, M. G.; Vrabas, I. S. (2013)A novel automatic escalator was designed, constructed and used in the present investigation. The aim of the present investigation was to compare the effect of two repeated sessions of stair descending versus stair ascending ... -
