Gsh levels affect weight loss in individuals with metabolic syndrome and obesity following dietary therapy
(2018)This study examined the effects of redox status markers on metabolic syndrome (MetS) and obesity before and after dietary intervention and exercise for weight loss. A total of 103 adults suffering from MetS and obesity ... -
High intensity, circuit-type integrated neuromuscular training alters energy balance and reduces body mass and fat in obese women: A 10-month training-detraining randomized controlled trial
(2018)This randomized controlled trial examined body mass, body composition, energy balance and performance responses of previously sedentary overweight/obese women to a circuit-type integrated neuromuscular training program ... -
Increased triacylglycerol lipase activity in adipose tissue of lean and obese men during endurance exercise
(2017)Context: Although there is increasing information on the mechanism of lipolysis in adipose tissue, the effect of exercise on individual factors of lipolysis is less well understood. Objective: Wecompared changes in ... -
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 ... -
Low load resistance training with blood flow restriction decreases anterior knee pain more than resistance training alone. A pilot randomised controlled trial
(2018)Objectives: To evaluate if application of blood flow restriction (BFR) combined with low-load resistance training (LLRT) would induce significant anterior knee pain (AKP) reduction compared to LLRT alone. Design: Randomised ... -
Motor control training of deep neck flexors with pressure biofeedback improves pain and disability in patients with neck pain: A systematic review and meta-analysis
(2020)Background: The effects of motor control training with pressure biofeedback on neck pain and disability of patients with neck pain is a field that has drawn a lot of research interest. Therefore, the aim of this study was ... -
Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS): Investigating care practices pointed out to disparities in diagnosis and treatment across European Union
(2019)ME/CFS is a chronic, complex, multisystem disease that often limits the health and functioning of the affected patients. Diagnosing patients with ME/CFS is a challenge, and many different case definitions exist and are ... -
Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome: The Effect of Acute and Chronic Responses of Exercise
(2021)Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSAS) is a sleep disorder with high prevalence in general population, but alarmingly low in clinicians' differential diagnosis. We reviewed the literature on PubMed and Scopus from June ... -
Physical activity, exercise and rheumatoid arthritis: Effectiveness, mechanisms and implementation
(2018)Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is characterised by functional disability, pain, fatigue and body composition alterations that can further impact on the physical dysfunction seen in RA. RA is also associated with systemic ... -
Physical therapists’ perceptions about patients with incomplete post-traumatic paraplegia adherence to recommended home exercises: a qualitative study
(2019)Background: The overall purpose of physical therapy for patients with spinal cord injury is to improve health-related quality of life. However, poor adherence is a problem in physical therapy and may have negative impact ... -
Physiotherapy and general health of older adults with musculoskeletal limb dysfunction
(2021)OBJECTIVE Τo investigate the effectiveness of physiotherapy in improving the general health of older individuals with musculoskeletal dysfunction. METHOD An observational study was conducted to compare the outcome of older ... -
A pragmatic randomised controlled trial of preferred intensity exercise in depressed adult women in the United Kingdom: Secondary analysis of individual variability of depression
(2019)Background: This study is a secondary analysis of the trial by Callaghan et al. (2011), which reported higher antidepressant effects for preferred intensity (n = 19) vs. prescribed intensity (n = 19) exercise of three ... -
Preferred intensity exercise for adolescents receiving treatment for depression: A pragmatic randomised controlled trial
(2015)Background: Exercise has been shown to be effective in treating depression, but trials testing the effect of exercise for depressed adolescents utilising mental health services are rare. The aim of this study was to determine ... -
Rhythmic cueing, dance, resistance training, and Parkinson's disease: A systematic review and meta-analysis
(2022)Objectives: The aim of the present systematic review and meta-analysis was to synthesize evidence associated with the functional and clinical effectiveness of rhythmic cueing, dance, or resistance training (RT) on motor ... -
Safety of home-based cardiac rehabilitation: A systematic review
(2022)Background: Cardiac rehabilitation is an evidence-based intervention that aims to improve health outcomes in cardiovascular disease patients, but it is largely underutilized. One strategy for improving utilization is ... -
Self-regulation strategies may enhance the acute effect of exercise on smoking delay
(2016)The present study examined the acute effect of a moderate intensity aerobic exercise session combined with self-regulation on smoking delay in physically inactive smokers. Participants were 11 adults (5 males and 6 females) ... -
Seven months of aerobic intradialytic exercise training can prevent muscle loss in haemodialysis patients: an ultrasonography study
