Individual differences in the temporal dynamics of the haemodynamic response can reflect cortical excitation and can reveal underlying cortical physiology. Here, we show differences in the shape of the haemodynamic response that are dependent on …
Our objective was to determine the effects of high-intensity interval training (HIT) on fitness in Army Reserve Officers' Training Corps cadets. Twenty-six college-aged (20.5 ± 1.7 years) participants completed 4 weeks of exercise training 3 …
Recent studies postulated that increased oxygenation of the prefrontal cortex (PFC) during elevating exercise intensities reflects a specific activation of this region. Furthermore, the drop in PFC oxygenation often measured shortly before exhaustion …
Recent studies have suggested that deficits in executive function contribute to freezing of gait (FOG), an episodic disturbance common among patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). To date, most findings provide only indirect evidence of this …
We evaluated whether altered reporting of ischemic symptoms occurs in diabetic patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) and stable claudication. Patients (n = 152) with claudication were enrolled (120 males; mean age: 71.0 ± 8.6 years): 74 …
PURPOSE: Cardiovascular risk, predicted by peak O2 uptake (VO2peak), is increased in type 1 diabetes. We examined the contribution of central and peripheral mechanisms to VO2peak in physically active adults with type 1 diabetes. METHODS: Seven men …
Endothelial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury importantly contributes to the poor prognosis during ischemic (myocardial) events. Preconditioning, i.e., repeated exposure to short periods of ischemia, effectively reduces endothelial I/R injury. In the …
Hosseinzadeh, M, Andersen, OK, Arendt-Nielsen, L, Samani, A, Kamavuako, EN, and Madeleine, P. Adaptation of local muscle blood flow and surface electromyography to repeated bouts of eccentric exercise. J Strength Cond Res 29(4): 1017-1026, 2015 - The …
Sustained attention is fundamental for cognition and when impaired, impacts negatively on important contemporary living skills. Degradation in sustained attention is characterized by the time-on-task (TOT) effect, which manifests as a gradual …
The study examined whether the aerobic fitness level modifies the cerebral oxygenation response to incremental ramp exercise, and more specifically the decline in cerebral oxygenation from heavy exercise up to maximal intensities. 11 untrained …
Genome-wide gene expression measurements have enabled comprehensive studies that integrate the changes of gene expression and phenotypic information to uncover their novel associations. Here we reported the association analysis between psychophysical …
We studied the relationship between cardiovascular status (CV) and risk factor numbers, macrovascular (flow mediated dilatation: FMD) and microvascular function using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) in adults with different CV status. Seventy …
PURPOSE:: To characterize the cardiorespiratory response to exercise before and after aerobic exercise training in patients with interstitial lung disease. METHODS:: We performed a clinical study, examining 13 patients (New York Heart …
Aim: Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) causes early onset of neuromuscular fatigue. Peripheral electrophysiological explorations suggest that supra-spinal alterations are involved through sensitive afferent pathways. As sensory input is …
Purpose: The aim of this study was to compare the muscle oxygenation between trained and untrained subjects during heavy exercise until exhaustion at two extreme pedaling cadences using a NIRS system. Methods: Nine untrained male subjects and nine …
Background: Multiple sclerosis is a demyelinating disorder that impacts mobility and function. The benefits of exercise on multiple sclerosis symptoms have been demonstrated. Exercise is proven to increase cerebral blood flow, and improve oxygen …
Musculoskeletal pain is one of the most common causes of chronic pain. Exercise- based pain management programs have been suggested as an effective alternative for relieving from musculoskeletal pain; however the pain which is experienced after …
Purpose: Resting-state functional connectivity in subjects with cerebral infarction (CI) was assessed using wavelet-based coherence analysis of near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) signals. Methods: Continuous recordings of NIRS signals were measured …
Physical inactivity reduces, and exercise training increases, mitochondrial capacity. In rodents, exercise training effects can be augmented by large doses of resveratrol supplementation but whether this can occur in humans with a smaller dose is …
