Body Composition Using Air Displacement Plethysmography In Obese Adults: Effect Of Estimated Versus Measured Thoracic Gas Volume |
2019 |
637 |
The Bod Pod uses air displacement plethysmography (ADP) to measure body volume, and, with the measurement of body mass, is able to calculate body density for the analysis of body composition. However, total body density will be incorrectly estimated ... |
Changes In The Shape Of The Maximal Expiratory Flow-Volume Curve Following Weight Loss In Obese Females |
2017 |
1030 |
Though the effects of obesity on cardiovascular health are well-studied, less is known in regards to the effect of obesity on the respiratory system. The buildup of fat leads to a decrease in chest well compliance and increase in airway resistance, b... |
Use Of Auditory Distraction To Alter Exertional Dyspnea In Young, Obese Females: A Case Study |
2017 |
638 |
Introduction: It is well understood that exercise is an important component in the prevention and treatment of obesity. Many obese adults are unable or unwilling to exercise due to dyspnea on exertion (DOE). Previous research has demonstrated that au... |
The Effects Of Beetroot Juice Supplementation On The Oxygen Cost Of Breathing In Obese Males |
2019 |
730 |
The purpose of this study was to measure the O2 cost of breathing during a eucapnic voluntary hyperventilation test, and whole body VO2 and ratings of perceived breathlessness during constant work rate cycling in obese males following beetroot juice ... |
The Effects Of Inspired Pollutants On Respiratory And Cardiovascular Function In Healthy Young Adults |
2021 |
496 |
Inspired pollutants have been associated with an increased risk of developing respiratory and cardiovascular diseases. While epidemiological studies have attempted to elucidate potential correlations, few have been able to determine true impacts of t... |
Ventilatory Dynamics And Exertional Dyspnea During Respiratory Challenges In Young Adults With Anxiety |
2021 |
570 |
Background: Anxious adults may be unwilling to exercise due to dyspnea on exertion (DOE); thus, diminishing their quality of living and potentially increasing their risk for cardiovascular disease and overall mortality. Purpose: The purpose of this s... |
