Attenuated Metabolic and Cardiorespiratory Responses to Isoenergetic High-Intensity Interval Exercise of Short Versus Long Bouts
(2022)Purpose To compare the metabolic, cardiorespiratory and perceptual responses to three isoenergetic high-intensity interval exercise (HIIE) protocols of different bout duration and an isoenergetic continuous exercise protocol. ... -
Determinants of Bone Outcomes in Adolescent Athletes at Baseline: The PRO-BONE Study
(2017)Purpose The determinants of areal bone mineral density (aBMD) and hip geometry estimates in adolescent athletes are poorly understood. This study aimed to identify the determinants of aBMD and hip geometry estimates in ... -
Developing and testing an instrument to assess aquaticity in humans
(2016)We developed and validated an aquaticity assessment test (AAT) for the evaluation of human physical adequacy in the water. Forty-six volunteers (25M/21F; 20 ± 8 years) participated and performed 10 easy-to-administer and ... -
Effects of exercise-heat stress on circulating stress hormones and interleukin-6 in young and older men
(2020)Aging is associated with impairments in thermoregulatory function, which may augment the neuroendocrine and immune response in older relative to young adults during physical activity in the heat. This study was therefore ... -
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 ... -
HPA axis responses to acute exercise differ in smokers and non-smokers
(2021)Physical exercise has been proposed as an adjunct in addiction treatment, including tobacco cigarette smoking. The physiological and biochemical mechanisms that could be affected by physical exercise in smokers and that ... -
The Impact of Sport Participation on Bone Mass and Geometry in Male Adolescents
(2017)Purpose Exercise is an effective approach for developing bone mass and adolescence is a key period to optimize bone health. However, sports-specific training may have different effects on bone outcomes. This study examined ... -
Long-term intradialytic hybrid exercise training on fatigue symptoms in patients receiving hemodialysis therapy
(2021)Purpose: Hemodialysis (HD) patients suffer from generalized weakness, exercise intolerance and muscle atrophy, all leading to generalized fatigue and lack of energy. HD patients spend at least 50% of their time in a ... -
Longitudinal Adaptations of Bone Mass, Geometry, and Metabolism in Adolescent Male Athletes: The PRO-BONE Study
(2017)Adolescence is a crucial period for bone development, and exercise can enhance bone acquisition during this period of life. However, it is not known how the different loading sports practiced can affect bone acquisition ... -
Longitudinal determinants of 12-month changes on bone health in adolescent male athletes
(2018)Summary: We identified the determinants of 12-month changes of areal bone mineral density (aBMD), hip geometry and trabecular bone score (TBS) in adolescent male athletes. Changes in region-specific lean mass and the type ... -
A single bout of hybrid intradialytic exercise did not affect left-ventricular function in exercise-naïve dialysis patients: a randomized, cross-over trial
(2022)Introduction: Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of mortality in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients, especially those receiving hemodialysis (HD) therapy. HD has many side effects that are related to patients’ ... -
A single load of fructose attenuates the risk of exercise-induced hypoglycemia in adults with type 1 diabetes on ultra-long-acting basal insulin: A randomized, open-label, crossover proof-of-principle study
(2020)OBJECTIVE While the adjustment of insulin is an established strategy to reduce the risk of exercise-associated hypoglycemia for individuals with type 1 diabetes, it is not easily feasible for those treated with ultra-long-acting ... -
Validation of the polar RS800CX for assessing heart rate variability during rest, moderate cycling and post-exercise recovery [version 1; peer review: 2 approved with reservations]
(2018)Background: Heart rate variability (HRV) is an autonomic nervous system marker that provides reliable information for both disease prevention and diagnosis; it is also used in sport settings. We examined the validity of ...
