Adults living with severe asthma have lower physical activity levels, particularly high-intensity physical activity, compared with their healthy peers. Physical inactivity is associated with increased...
To understand patient and health care professional attitudes toward exercise and physical activity to inform future strategies for the improvement of healthy lifestyle behaviors, including exercise....
Participants recruited from a specialist difficult asthma service were interviewed individually, and health care professionals (HCPs) from primary care, secondary care, and a tertiary center were invi...
Twenty-nine people with severe asthma participated in a semi-structured interview. A total of 51 HCPs took part in eight focus groups across the East Midlands, United Kingdom. Final analysis resulted ...
Patients identified the important role of HCPs in supporting and advising on lifestyle change. Despite a preference for supervised exercise programs, both patient and HCP barriers existed. To meet pat...
Although global longitudinal strain (GLS) is recognized as a sensitive marker of intrinsic left ventricular (LV) dysfunction, its afterload dependency has also been pointed. We hypothesized that decre...
Handgrip exercise-stress echocardiography was performed in 90 cardiovascular disease patients with preserved LV ejection fraction. LV diastolic function was graded according to the guidelines. Diastol...
While mean value of GLS did not change by the exercise, substantial patients showed significant changes in GLS: decreased (group I, n = 28), unchanged (group II, n = 34), and increased (group III, n =...
In contrast to our hypothesis, paradoxical increase in GLS by handgrip exercise could be associated with advanced LV diastolic dysfunction in cardiovascular patients with preserved LV ejection fractio...
Renal blood flow (RBF) decreases with exercise, but this change is only temporary, and habitual exercise may be an effective method to improve renal function. The kidney shows structural and functiona...
Sixteen men (8 young and 8 older) underwent an incremental exercise test using a cycle ergometer with a 1-min warm up followed by exercise at 10-20 W/min until the discontinuation criteria were met. R...
High-intensity exercise significantly reduced RBF in both groups (younger: ∆ - 53 ± 16%, p = 0.0005; older: ∆ - 53 ± 19%, p = 0.0004). In the younger group, RBF returned to the pre-exercise level 60-m...
Our findings demonstrate that RBF following high-intensity exercise recovered 60-min after exercise in younger group, whereas RBF recovery was delayed in the older group....
Glioblastoma (GBM) is an aggressive, common brain cancer known to disrupt redox biology, affecting behavior and DNA integrity. Past research remains inconclusive. To further understand this, an invest...
It has been demonstrated that elderly people's cognitive capacities can be improved with exercise, and short sleep is linked to cognitive decline. However, the impact of physical exercise on cognitive...
This study consisted of elders (over 60 years old) who participated throughout the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey's 2011-2014 cycle (NHANES). Weighted linear regression model and res...
Results showed that in the Animal Fluency test and the Digit Symbol Substitution test, a positive association was found between physical exercise volume and scores in the fully adjusted model. A two-p...
According to our research, the benefit of exercise did not always expand with the exercise volume increment under the short-sleep condition, which challenged existing knowledge. The short-sleep elder ...
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) has recently been described as a complex clinical syndrome affecting multiple organ systems, including the heart, lungs, and skeletal muscle, each of which plays an importa...
We retrospectively analysed the exercise capacity and measures of skeletal muscle of 107 patients with PH without left heart disease (mean age 63 ± 15 years, 32.7% males, n = 30/6/66/5 in the clinical...
Sarcopenia, low appendicular skeletal muscle mass index, low grip strength, and slow gait speed, determined by international criteria, were found in 15 (14.0%), 16 (15.0%), 62 (57.9%), and 41 (38.3%) ...
Sarcopenia and its components are associated with reduced exercise capacity in patients with PH. A multifaceted evaluation may be important in the management of reduced exercise capacity in patients w...
Sleep deficiency is a ubiquitous phenomenon among Americans. In fact, in the United States, ∼78% of teens and 35% of adults currently get less sleep than recommended for their age-group, and the quali...
A diet that is high in sugar and fat is a precursor to various chronic diseases, especially hyperlipidemia. Patients with hyperlipidemia have increased levels of plasma free fatty acids and an ectopic...
Cancer survivors physical function response to exercise programs at the group level is well-established. However, to advance toward a more personalized approach in exercise oncology, a greater underst...
Physical function measures (grip strength, 6-min walk test (6MWT), and sit-to-stand) were completed pre/post the 3-month program. Change scores for each participant and the proportion achieving the MC...
Participants (N = 250) were 55 ± 14 years old, majority female (69.2%), white (84.1%), and diagnosed with breast cancer (36.8%). Change in grip strength ranged from - 42.1 to + 47.0 lb, and 14.8% achi...
Findings illustrate wide variability in the magnitude of cancer survivors' physical function response following an exercise program, and that a variety of factors predict response. Further investigati...
Internet addiction (IA) has a significant negative impact on students. The condition of students with IA can be improved by exercise, which has been identified as an effective intervention strategy. H...
Systematic searches were conducted in PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, CNKI, Wan Fang, CQVIP, Web of Science, CBM, EBSCO, APA PsycNet, and Scopus, and all relevant studies from the beginning to 15 Ju...
A total of 39 randomized controlled trials that met all inclusion criteria including 2,408 students with IA were examined. The meta-analysis results showed that compared with the control group, exerci...
Exercise could be suggested as the best alternative when treating IA in students, based on the extensive positive effects of exercise on IA, anxiety, depression, interpersonal sensitivity, loneliness,...
