The comparison of the effects of lifestyle activity and structured cardiovascular exercise on obesity-related risk factors of African-American women ages 22-55. 2008 2932 The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of lifestyle activity modification (LA) and structured exercise (Cardio) on obesity-related factors in sedentary African American women. Subjects were randomized to a control group, a Cardio group,...
The effects of lifestyle activity modification (LAM) or a structured exercise program on non-traditional cardiovascular risk factors in African-American women 2006 2720 "The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of lifestyle activity modification (LAM) and structured exercise on the non-traditional cardiovascular risk factors C-reactive protein (CRP) and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), in seden...
The growth hormone adaptation to short-term sprint exercise training 2012 7909 The response of growth hormone to acute exercise has been shown to be altered by training. The present study examined the time course of GH adaptation to 3-weeks of sprint exercise training on a cycle ergometer. Eight, recreationally active, male sub...
Physiologic synchrony: a systems approach to understanding the hierarchical regulation of physiologic function through the endocrine system following exercise 2018 586 Alterations in the temporal organization and synchronous patterns among physio-logic systems have been detected across the spectrum of biological systems. These dy-namic relations between biomarkers provide important information about physiologic fun...
The effect of high-intensity exercise and carbohydrate supplementation on plasma visfatin 2013 2444 Plasma visfatin has been proposed to act as an insulin-mimetic hormone and to enhance glucose uptake. However, research regarding its insulin-like properties has been highly variable. Furthermore, its response to exercise, carbohydrate ingestion, and...
Effect of sleep deprivation on exercise-induced growth hormone release 2014 4513 Growth hormone (GH) is released in a pulsatile fashion from the anterior pituitary gland, with the greatest release occurring during sleep and exercise. Under normal conditions, nocturnal GH release is attenuated during sleep deprivation. Acute sleep...
The impact of prior evening exercise on endocrine awakening responses 2021 191 Monitoring the physiological response to exercise is important for both competitive athletes and the general population. Cortisol is a steroid hormone that demonstrates a distinct diurnal and circadian rhythm and responds to acute exercise. A distinc...
The influence of abnormal sleep durations and physical activity on serum uric acid levels among a sample of adolescents 2019 249 Sleep is a restorative process acting to conserve energy and is a vital component of human health, especially during adolescence. It is recommended that adolescence sleep 8-10 hours a night. Abnormal amounts of sleep, either not enough or too much, a...
Energy availability and sex steroid hormones in physically active females 2023 59 Sex steroid hormones (i.e., estrogen, progesterone) are major determinants of a women’s health status and play a role in almost every physiological system, including reproductive, endocrine, urinary, nervous, immune, musculoskeletal and cardiovascula...
Neither recurrent hypoglycemia nor chronic aerobic training alter the content of MCTs in the ventromedial hypothalamus 2016 576 Many individuals with diabetes use medications or exercise to control blood glucose concentrations, which can lead to episodes of hypoglycemia. Although chronic hyperglycemia leads to many diabetic complications, hypoglycemia is an acute threat to th...
Evaluation of the validity of the Fit for 90 subjective training load and wellness measures 2017 624 In recent years, athlete monitoring has become increasingly prevalent as professional teams seek to maximize performance and reduce the risk of injury in their athletes (T. J. Gabbett, 2016). In soccer, matches normally represent the highest load pla...
The influence of habitual fluid intake on energy balance 2023 76 Epidemiologic data have linked chronic low fluid intake (i.e., underhydration) with greater incidence of obesity, but the underlying mechanisms behind this association are unclear. No study has assessed the direct effect of underhydration on energy b...
Recall validity of the Health and Reproductive Survey (HeRS) and findings of menstrual health of young active females 2021 182 The female menstrual cycle is inherently complex and there is great diversity in the hormonal profiles that maintain and govern the seemingly normal female reproductive cycle. Female sex hormones are linked to a breadth of physiological and psycholog...
