Effect of Exercise on the Resting Metabolic Rate and Substrate Utilization in Women with Gestational Diabetes Mellitus: Results of a Pilot Study
(2022)Regular physical activity during pregnancy has a positive effect on the mother and fetus. However, there is scarce data regarding the effect of exercise in pregnancies complicated by gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). ... -
Estimating the agreement between the metabolic rate calculated from prediction equations and from a portable indirect calorimetry device: An effort to develop a new equation for predicting resting metabolic rate
(2018)Background: Many studies have been performed over time in order to determine the reliability of metabolic rate prediction equations. Purpose: To evaluate the agreement, in terms of bias, absolute bias and accuracy between ... -
Evidence for age-related differences in heat acclimatisation responsiveness
(2020)New Findings: What is the central question of this study? Repeated heat exposure during the summer months can enhance heat loss in humans (seasonal heat acclimatisation), but does the magnitude of that enhancement differ ... -
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 ... -
Type 2 diabetes does not exacerbate body heat storage in older adults during brief, extreme passive heat exposure
(2020)Aging exacerbates hyperthermia and cardiovascular strain during passive heat exposure, but it remains unclear whether those effects worsen in older adults with type 2 diabetes (T2D). We examined these responses in ...
