Rehabilitation improves mitochondrial energetics in progressive multiple sclerosis: The significant role of robot-assisted gait training and of the personalized intensity

Abnormal levels of pyruvate and lactate were reported in multiple sclerosis (MS). We studied the response of markers of mitochondrial function to rehabilitation in relation to type, intensity and endurance performance in severely disabled MS …

Effect of external compression on femoral retrograde shear and microvascular oxygenation in exercise trained and recreationally active young men

Introduction: Retrograde shear causes endothelial damage and is pro-atherogenic. The purpose of our study was to examine the impact of vascular remodeling from habitual exercise training on acute changes in retrograde shear and microvascular …

Influence of exercise training with resveratrol supplementation on skeletal muscle mitochondrial capacity

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 …

Effect of aerobic interval training on erythrocyte rheological and hemodynamic functions in heart failure patients with anemia

Background: Anemia disturbs hemorheological/hemodynamic properties, whereas aerobic interval training (AIT) achieves a superior aerobic fitness in patients with heart failure (HF). This study investigated whether AIT influences functional capacity by …

Aerobic interval training improves oxygen uptake efficiency by enhancing cerebral and muscular hemodynamics in patients with heart failure

Background: Abnormal ventilatory/hemodynamic responses to exercise contribute to functional impairment in patients with heart failure (HF). This study investigates how interval and continuous exercise regimens influence functional capacity by …
