RESUMO
This study aimed to assess whether obesity and/or maximal exercise can change 24 h cardiac autonomic modulation and blood pressure in young men. Thirty-nine men (n: 20; 21.9±1.8 kg·m-2, and n: 19; 32.9±2.4 kg·m-2) were randomly assigned to perform a control (non-exercise) and an experimental day exercise (after maximal incremental test). Cardiac autonomic modulation was evaluated through frequency domain heart rate variability (HRV). Obesity did not impair the ambulatory HRV (p>0.05), however higher diastolic blood pressure during asleep time (p=0.02; group main effect) was observed. The 24 h and awake heart rate was higher on the experimental day (p<0.05; day main effect), regardless of obesity. Hypotension on the experimental day, compared to control day, was observed (p<0.05). Obesity indicators were significantly correlated with heart rate during asleep time (Rho=0.34 to 0.36) and with ambulatory blood pressure(r/Rho=0.32 to 0.53). Furthermore, the HRV threshold workload was significantly correlated with ambulatory heart rate (r/Rho=- 0.38 to-0.52). Finally, ambulatory HRV in obese young men was preserved; however, diastolic blood pressure was increased during asleep time. Maximal exercise caused heart rate increase and 24h hypotension, with decreased cardiac autonomic modulation in the first hour, regardless of obesity.

To analyze whether heart rate variability is reproducible after maximal exercise, 11 men (22.1±3.2 years) performed four incremental exercise tests followed by passive or active recovery. There was high reliability (intraclass coefficient correlation: 0.72-0.96) and fair-to-excellent agreement (coefficient of variation: 7.81-22.09%) in passive recovery, as well as moderate-to-high reliability (intraclass coefficient correlation: 0.50-0.87) and good agreement (coefficient of variation: 11.08-20.89%) in active recovery for LnRMSSD index. There was moderate-to-high reliability (intraclass coefficient correlation: 0.51-0.81) and good agreement (coefficient of variation: 10.41-18.87%) in most of the analyzed time points, in both recovery types for LnSDNN. In both types of recovery, the time domain heart rate variability 5-10 min indices (passive: intraclass coefficient correlation : 0.87-0.88; coefficient of variation: 7.67-13.44%; active: intraclass coefficient correlation 0.59-0.80; coefficient of variation: 14.62-16.26%) presented higher intraclass coefficient correlation and lower coefficient of variation than the spectral heart rate variability indices (passive: intraclass coefficient correlation: 0.71-0.87; coefficient of variation: 12.33-34.21%; active: intraclass coefficient correlation: 0.46-0.77; coefficient of variation: 24.41-105.12%). The LnRMSSD and LnSDNN indices analyzed in 30 s segments and the heart rate variability 5-10 min indices after maximal exercise in untrained healthy men showed satisfactory reproducibility, regardless of the type of recovery, with the time-domain indices showing higher reproducibility than the frequency-domain indices.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the reproducibility of the heart rate variability threshold (HRVT) by different HRV indexes and determination criteria. 68 untrained participants, 17 women (24.09±4.91 years old; 21.54±1.97 kgâm-2) and 51 men (24.52±3.52 years old; 26.51±6.31 kgâm-2), were evaluated on 2 different days (test and retest). The HRVT was determined during an incremental exercise test using 2 indexes (SD1 and RMSSD) and criteria (HRTV1, first intensity of physical effort with index<3 ms, and HRVT2, first intensity of physical effort, in which the index presents a difference<1 ms between 2 consecutive intensities). There was no significant difference (p<0.05) between the test and retest for any of the variables evaluated. All variables, except for the rate of perceived exertion at HRVT2, presented moderate to high intraclass correlation coefficient (HRVT1: 0.55-0.85 and HRVT2:0.58-0.69). All variables at HRVT1 and the heart rate at HRVT2 showed coefficient of variation ~ 10%. The HRVT, regardless of criteria and HRV index used, showed satisfactory reproducibility. Thus, these criteria can be used to assess clinically autonomic cardiac modulation and aerobic capacity, and to analyze the effect of different interventions.

This study compared maximum oxygen consumption (VO2max) on a 20-meter multistage shuttle run test (20-Srt) with a cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) to determine a VO2max prediction equation for a 20-Srt in children aged 6-10 years. Eighty healthy children performed the CPET on a treadmill, while the 20-Srt took place on a sports court. Heart rate (HR) was measured and the expired gases were continuously measured breath-by-breath using a portable gas analyzer. The VO2max was lower (p<0.05) in CPET than 20-Srt for all, female, and male participants, respectively (46.3±7.9 vs. 48.7±4.6; 42.7±7.8 vs. 46.7±4.8; 49.3±6.8 vs. 50.4±3.9, mL·kg-1·min-1). The standard error estimates were between 3.0 and 3.6 and considered as not clinically relevant if less than 5 mL·kg-1·min-1. The intraclass correlation coefficient between the VO2 in CPET and in 20-Srt was 0.74 (CI95% 0.55-0.84) and considered moderately reliable. The linear multiple regression excluded sex, body mass index and fat-free mass and retained the maximum speed and age in the predictive equation. The 20-Srt estimates the VO2max with moderate reliability and the predictive equation was VO2maxpred=4.302+(maximum speed*5.613)-(age*1.523) for children aged 6-10 years.

The main purpose of this research was to investigate the alterations in the aerobic capacity and appearance of metabolic alterations in Wistar rats fed on fructose-rich diet. We separated twenty-eight rats into two groups according to diet: a control group (C) (balanced diet) and a fructose-rich diet group (F). The animals were fed these diets for 60 d (d 120 to 180). We performed insulin, glucose as well as a minimum lactate test, at d 120 and 180. At the end of the experiment, sixteen animals were euthanized, and the following main variables were analysed: aerobic capacity, the serum aspartate aminotransferase (AST) to alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ratio, serum and liver triglyceride concentrations, serum and liver thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) concentrations, serum and liver catalase and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and haematoxylin-eosin histology (HE) in hepatocytes. The remaining twelve animals were submitted to an analysis of their hepatic lipogenic rate. The animals fed a fructose-rich diet exhibited a reduction in aerobic capacity, glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity and increased concentrations of triglycerides and TBARS in the liver. Catalase and SOD activities were reduced in the livers of the fructose-fed animals. In addition, the serum AST/ALT ratio was higher than that of the C group, which indicates hepatic damage, and the damage was confirmed by histology. In conclusion, the fructose-rich diet caused significant liver damage and a reduction in insulin sensitivity in the animals, which could lead to deleterious metabolic effects.

BACKGROUND: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic disease that is characterized by insulin resistance. Its development is directly connected with the inability of insulin to exert its action, not just on carbohydrate metabolism but also on primarily on lipid metabolism. The present study aimed to compare the effects of continuous, intermittent, and strength training on serum and tissue variables on the lipid metabolism of alloxan rats. METHODS: Wistar rats were divided into eight groups: sedentary alloxan (SA), sedentary control (SC), continuous training alloxan (CA), intermittent training alloxan (IA), strength training alloxan (StA), continuous training control (CC), intermittent training control (IC) and strength training control (StC). Alloxan (250 mg/kg bw) was injected into neonatal rats at 6 days of age. The continuous training protocol consisted of 12 weeks of swimming training for 1 uninterrupted hour/day, five days/week, supporting a load that was 5% bw. The intermittent training protocol consisted of 12 weeks of swimming training with 30 s of activity interrupted by 30 s of rest, for a total of 20 min/day, five days/week, supporting a load that was 15% bw. The strength-training protocol consisted of 12 weeks of training, five days/week with 4 sets of 10 jumps in water with 1 min rest between sets, supporting a load that was a 50% bw. RESULTS: At 28 days, the alloxan animals exhibited higher insulin resistance as measured by the disappearance of glucose serum (% Kitt/min) during the ITT. At 120 days, the sedentary alloxan animals showed higher FFA values than continuous and intermittent training alloxan. In addition, the alloxan animals that underwent intermittent and strength training showed lower FFA values compared to the corresponding controls. The continuous training protocol was less effective than the strength training protocol for reducing the levels of total cholesterol in the alloxan animals. Serum total lipid values revealed that intermittent training increased serum levels in alloxan animals CONCLUSION: Thus, it was concluded that physical training at different intensities of effort is of great importance in attenuation and control of changes in the lipid metabolism in alloxan animals.

PURPOUSE: This meta-analysis evaluates the impact of family history of hypertension (FHH + ) on blood pressure (BP) and heart rate variability (HRV) in young adults. METHODS: Observational studies that evaluated adults (aged between 18 and 40 years) of both sexes, are without cardiometabolic disease diagnosis, are published in English, and are reporting on the influence of FHH + (father, mother, or both) on BP and HRV were included. In June 2021, we made a search of the electronic database MEDLINE (accessed by PubMed). Random-effects models were used, and data are reported as standardized mean difference and 95% confidence limits. RESULTS: Thirty-eight studies with a total of 2025 individuals were included. Clinic systolic [3.13 mmHg (1.75-4.51)] and diastolic [2.85 mmHg (1.65-4.04)] BPs were higher ( P < 0.001) in individuals with an FHH + . Only 24-h systolic BP was higher [1.76 mmHg (0.05-3.47); P = 0.04] in individuals with an FHH + . As for HRV indices in time-domain, RMSSD: -7.00 ms (-10.75 to -3.26), SDNN: -13.93 ms (-23.56 to -4.30), and HF [-6.82 n. u. (-9.76 to -3.89)] were lower ( P < 0.05), and LF [4.78 ms (2.52-7.03)] and LF/HF ratio [0.32 (0.14-0.50)] were higher ( P < 0.001) in individuals with an FHH + . CONCLUSION: FHH + negatively impacts BP and HRV in young adults.

INTRODUCTION: Cardiac autonomic modulation can be altered by carbohydrate ingestion. On the other hand, some of the protective effects of physical activity may be due to its impact on the autonomic nervous system. PURPOSE: This cross-sectional study was conducted to evaluate whether physical activity level influences heart rate variability (HRV) under fasting and mainly, after dextrose ingestion. METHODS: Healthy adults aged 18-40 years ( n = 92; 54.35 % women) were separated into nonactive ( n = 47) and active groups ( n = 45), based on the physical activity level determined by International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) and then compared. RESULTS: There were no significant differences ( P > 0.05) for age, body mass, BMI, abdominal circumference, blood pressure, fasting glucose and blood glucose at 60 min after dextrose ingestion between groups. Body fat (%) was lower in the active group ( P = 0.02). The time-domain indices (RMSSD, SDNN and pNN50) were higher in the physically active group compared to the nonactive group (main effect of group, P < 0.01). The SDNN index was higher at 60 min after dextrose ingestion compared to fasting (main effect of time, P ≤ 0.01). However, no HRV indices showed significantly interaction effect (group x time; P > 0.05). CONCLUSION: The magnitude of HRV responses to glucose was not influenced by physical activity status. Young adults who met at least the minimum physical activity recommendations showed a higher cardiac autonomic modulation, regardless of dextrose ingestion.

Despite the growing evidence for the beneficial effects of high-intensity interval exercise (HIIE) on vascular health of overweight and obese individuals, it is not clear whether the autonomic stress promoted by HIIE during the ambulatory period is higher than that by moderate-intensity continuous exercise (MICE). Therefore, this study compares the 24 hour (h) ambulatory heart rate variability (HRV) following HIIE and MICE in young overweight and obese men. Eleven untrained men aged 23.2 ± 1.9 years, with average body mass index (BMI) of 31.6 ± 3.9â kg/m² (three overweight and eight obese), underwent three exercise sessions: HIIE, MICE and Control (CT). HRV was recorded in the laboratory and for the next 24â h following laboratory recovery. There were no differences in HRV indices in the rest period between the sessions (p > .05). During the ambulatory period, the area under the curve (AUC) of the low-frequency band transformed into natural logarithm (Ln-LF) during sleep was higher after HIIE than after CT (43.31 ± 8.59 vs. 41.11 ± 7.28â ms²*h, p = .034). The HRV followed by MICE did not differ from other sessions (p > .05). In conclusion, the 24â h ambulatory HRV did not differ after HIIE and MICE. However, despite the small effect, HIIE increased the cardiac autonomic modulation during the sleep period, as a protector of cardiovascular system. Highlights24 h ambulatory HRV could add important information about the cardiovascular safety of the exercise protocols in overweight and obese individuals.There was no disturbances in the cardiac autonomic modulation during the awake period, regardless of the exercise protocol.LnLF index was higher in HIIE compared to CT in the sleep period.24 h ambulatory HRV did not differ between the HIIE and MICE sessions.

This study aimed to assess whether the blood glucose levels influence cardiac autonomic modulation under fasting and after carbohydrate overload conditions. Participants (n = 108) were separated into lower blood glucose and higher blood glucose groups, based on the median (90.5 mg·dL-1) of fasting glucose assessed. The SD2, SDNN, LF indices, and LF/HF increased, and HF decreased after dextrose overload compared with fasting (p < 0.05). Body mass (78.9 vs 69.7 kg), abdominal circumference (90.2 vs 82.2 cm), systolic (113 vs 108 mm Hg) and diastolic (72 vs 67 mm Hg) blood pressure were higher (p < 0.05) in the higher blood glucose group. Heart rate variability (HRV) indices (SD1: 21.0 vs 26.5; SD2: 76.8: vs 86.1; RMSSD: 28.7 vs 37.5; SDNN: 56.1 vs 62.5 ms; pNN50: 10.6 vs 18.9%, HF: 328.4 vs 506.0; LF: 982.8 vs 1259.0 ms2), and the area under the curve of these indices after dextrose overload were lower in the higher blood glucose group (p < 0.05). Additionally, glycemia after dextrose overload was correlated with HRV indices (ρ = -0.216 to -0.273, p < 0.05). Individuals with higher blood glucose, even in the normality range, showed impairment in the cardiac autonomic modulation both at fasting and after carbohydrate overload. Novelty: Higher fasting blood glucose impairs cardiac autonomic modulation. Carbohydrate overload impairs cardiac autonomic modulation.

PURPOSE: This study assesses whether the specific duties of a police officer or aerobic fitness influences blood pressure (BP) and cardiac autonomic modulation. METHOD: Police officers (n = 161) were divided into administrative and operational (34.72 ± 5.98 vs. 33.95 ± 5.61 years old) groups, and subsequently divided into lower and higher aerobic fitness (35.49 ± 4.32 vs. 45.39 ± 13.10 mL·kg-1·min-1). RESULTS: Higher SBP (125 ± 10 vs. 121 ± 10 mmHg; P = 0.02) and aerobic fitness (42.10 ± 5.57 vs. 38.51 ± 6.67 mL·kg-1·min-1; P < 0.01) were observed in the operational group. On the other hand, lower obesity indicators and higher heart rate variability (HRV) indices (SD1: 26.67 ± 14.19 vs. 20.98 ± 9.12; SD2: 54.04 ± 19.81 vs. 47.32 ± 18.85; RMSSD: 36.50 ± 18.78 vs. 29.90 ± 12.51; SDNN: 42.80 ± 16.05 vs. 36.85 ± 14.23 ms; pNN50: 17.32 ± 17.54 vs. 10.60 ± 10.77 %) were observed in the higher aerobic fitness group (P ≤ 0.05). CONCLUSION: In summary, although the operational occupation had shown a negative influence on SBP, the HRV was not impaired in police officers. Additionally, aerobic fitness was related to differences in obesity indicators and HRV regardless of police duties. Our findings encourage the inclusion of BP and HRV measurements in routine health checks to screen for early hypertension and autonomic dysfunction.

Purpose: To verify whether excess body mass influences 24-h ambulatory heart rate variability (HRV) after a moderate-intensity continuous exercise (MICE) session. Method: Participants included 27 non-trained young men that were divided into two groups, 1) normal-weight (n = 10) and 2) overweight and obese (n = 17). Participants underwent a single MICE session of 30 minutes at 50-60% of heart rate reserve (HRR), and a control session (CT). Heart rate (HR) and HRV indices were recorded at 60-minute intervals and were used to obtain the area under the curve (AUC) for 24-h ambulatory measurements following MICE or CT. SDNN (standard deviation of RR intervals in milliseconds) and RMSSD (root mean square of successive differences between adjacent RR interval in milliseconds), Ln-LF (log-transformed values of the absolute power of the low-frequency band) and HF (log-transformed values of the absolute power of the high-frequency band) were analyzed. Results: The overweight and obese group presented higher AUC of RMSSD (p = .006), Ln-LF (p = .002), and Ln-HF (p = .005) indices after MICE than CT. Nighttime periods were more responsive to the effects of MICE on RMSSD and Ln-HF indices (p < .05), regardless of group. Conclusion: MICE promoted an increase in the 24-h ambulatory cardiac autonomic modulation in the group overweight and obese, mainly at nighttime during sleep. These results revealed a potential benefit of MICE on the cardiac autonomic modulation for young men with overweight and obesity.

Abstract The aim of this study was to verify whether obesity and acute physical exercise could influence the reactivity to mental stress. Twelve normal weight (NW) and ten obese (Ob) (31.82% women), normotensive individuals between 18 and 40 years old were evaluated. The Stroop color test was performed under two conditions: 1) Baseline and 2) 30 min after the end of aerobic physical exercise. Individuals performed 30 min of physical exercise (NW: 3.38 and Ob: 2.99 km·h-1; p< 0.05) between 50-60% of heart rate reserve (NW: 139±7 and Ob: 143±7 bpm). The reactivity to mental stress for systolic blood pressure - SBP (Δ2 min) and diastolic blood pressure - DBP (Δ2 and Δ4 min) was lower (p< 0.05) in Ob compared to NW group. The SBP reactivity to mental stress was less (p< 0.05) post-exercise in all moments (Δ2 and Δ4 min), regardless of obesity, while the DBP reactivity to mental stress was less post-exercise, only in NW. BP reactivity to stress correlated negatively with obesity indicators (r/Rho = - 0.42 to - 0.64), under the baseline condition, but not post-physical exercise. Obesity blunted BP reactivity to mental stress in normotensive young adults. Moderately-intensity acute aerobic exercise reduced SBP reactivity to mental stress, regardless of obesity, while it reduced DBP reactivity to mental stress, only in NW. In summary, acute physical exercise may be a one means to prevent cardiovascular changes.
Resumo O objetivo deste estudo foi verificar se a obesidade e o exercício físico agudo podem influenciar a reatividade ao estresse mental. Foram avaliados 12 indivíduos eutróficos (E) e dez obesos (Ob) (31,82% mulheres), normotensos entre 18 e 40 anos. O teste de cor Stroop foi realizado em duas condições: 1) Linha de base e 2) 30 min após o término do exercício físico aeróbio. Os indivíduos realizaram 30 min de exercício físico (E: 3,38 e Ob: 2,99 km•h-1; p<0,05) entre 50-60% da frequência cardíaca de reserva (E 139±7 e Ob: 143±7 bpm). A reatividade ao estresse mental para pressão arterial sistólica - PAS (Δ2 min) e pressão arterial diastólica - PAD (Δ2 e Δ4 min) foi menor (p< 0,05) no grupo Ob comparado ao grupo E. A reatividade da PAS ao estresse mental foi menor (p< 0,05) pós-exercício em todos os momentos (Δ2 e Δ4 min), independente da obesidade, enquanto a reatividade da PAD ao estresse mental foi menor pós-exercício, apenas no E. A reatividade da PA ao estresse correlacionou-se negativamente com os indicadores de obesidade (r/Rho = - 0,42 a - 0,64), na condição basal, mas não pós-exercício físico. A obesidade embotou a reatividade da PA ao estresse mental em adultos jovens normotensos. O exercício aeróbico agudo de ientesidade moderada reduziu a reatividade da PAS ao estresse mental, independentemente da obesidade, enquanto reduziu a reatividade da PAD ao estresse mental, apenas no E. Em resumo, o exercício físico agudo pode ser um meio de prevenir alterações cardiovasculares.
RESUMO
abstract It is known that cardiovascular risk is increased during exercise and recovery. Thus, it is necessary to assess all the risk associated with exercise to minimize the possibility of cardiovascular events. The aim of this study was to verify whether a maximal exercise alters ambulatory cardiac autonomic modulation in untrained women and whether aerobic fitness is correlated to cardiac autonomic modulation. Twelve women (25.35 ± 5.44 years) were outfitted with the Holter monitor on an experimental (after maximum exercise) and a control day to heart rate variability (HRV) evaluation. Maximal exercise increased 24 h heart rate (82 ± 14 vs 77 ± 11 bpm; p = 0.04) and during sleep time (72 ± 14 vs. 65 ± 9 bpm; p = 0.01), reduced parasympathetic modulation (HF - n.u. 49.96 ± 11.56 vs 42.10 ± 14.98; p = 0.04), and increased low-frequency/high-frequency ratio (2.88 ± 3.24 vs 1.31 ± 0.60; p = 0.03) during sleep time compared to the control day. Aerobic fitness was correlated positively with LF, HF, and HF (n.u.) indices (r = 0.61 to 0.73, p < 0.05) and correlated negatively with LF (n.u.) and LF/HF ratio (Rho = - 0.57 to - 0.69; p < 0.05). Maximal exercise alters parasympathetic modulation during sleep time in untrained women. Ambulatory cardiac autonomic modulation after exercise is related to aerobic fitness.
resumo Sabe-se que o risco cardiovascular aumenta durante o exercício e sua recuperação. Assim, é necessário avaliar todo o risco associado ao exercício para minimizar a chance de eventos cardiovasculares. Objetivou-se verificar se um exercício máximo altera a modulação autonômica cardíaca ambulatorial em mulheres não treinadas e se a aptidão aeróbia está correlacionada à modulação autonômica cardíaca. Doze mulheres (25,35 ± 5,44 anos) foram equipadas com monitor Holter em um dia experimental (após exercício máximo) e dia controle para avaliação da variabilidade da frequência cardíaca (VFC). O exercício máximo aumentou a frequência cardíaca de 24 h (82 ± 14 vs 77 ± 11 bpm; p = 0,04) e durante o sono (72 ± 14 vs 65 ± 9 bpm; p = 0,01), bem como reduziu a modulação parassimpática (HF - nu 49,96 ± 11,56 vs 42,10 ± 14,98; p = 0,04) e aumentou a razão de baixa frequência / alta frequência - LF/HF (2,88 ± 3,24 vs 1,31 ± 0,60; p = 0,03) durante o período do sono em comparação com o dia controle. A aptidão aeróbia foi correlacionada positivamente com os índices LF, HF e HF (nu) (r = 0,61 a 0,73, p <0,05) e negativamente correlacionada com LF (nu) e razão LF / HF (Rho = - 0,57 a - 0,69; p <0,05). O exercício máximo altera a modulação parassimpática durante o sono em mulheres não treinadas. A modulação autonômica cardíaca ambulatorial após o exercício foi correlacionada com a aptidão aeróbia.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Exercise is effective in reducing glycemia, especially when it is performed in the postprandial period. However, no consensus exists in the literature about the effect of exercise on postprandial glucose control when it is performed before carbohydrate consumption. AIMS: The main aim was to determine whether 20 min of exercise performed prior to carbohydrate consumption reduces postprandial glycemic and insulinemic responses. A secondary aim was to analyze the effectiveness of short-term (10 min) exercise bout with respect to postprandial glycemia reduction. METHODS: Nine individuals with type 2 diabetes (54.9 ± 1.7 years; 30.7 ± 1.8 kg/m2; glycemia level of 167.0 ±10.6 mg/dL) participated in the study and underwent the following procedures: (a) an incremental test to determine the lactate threshold; (b) an exercise session for 20 minutes at moderate intensity (90% of the lactate threshold); and c) a control session. The last two sessions were randomized, and the participants were monitored during 135 minutes of post-exercise recovery. A standard meal was consumed two hours before the experimental procedures started. A dextrose solution was administered at 45 minutes of post-exercise recovery while monitoring glucose and insulin concentrations. At 135 min of post-exercise recovery, eight of the participants performed an additional 10-min exercise bout following induced hyperglycemia. RESULTS: Exercise reduced glycemia (-46.6 ± 7.9 mg/dL) and the insulin/glucose ratio (from 1.73 ± 0.59 to 0.93 ± 0.22 µU/mL/mmol/L) during the first 45 minutes of post-exercise recovery. Glycemia was significantly increased after carbohydrate consumption, reaching its peak value at 105 minutes of post-exercise recovery (261.8 ± 15.8 mg/dL) or control (281.3 ± 13.4 mg/dL). There was no effect of the previous exercise in attenuating glycemia or reducing the area under the curve for glucose and insulin after carbohydrate consumption. However, the effectiveness of exercise in reducing glycemia was shown again when it was performed at the end of the experimental session, even in case of only a 10-min exercise (reduction of -44.5 ± 4.9 mg/dL). CONCLUSIONS: Twenty minutes of moderate exercise does not alter the kinetics or the area under the curve in terms of glycemia and insulinemia after subsequent carbohydrate consumption. However, moderate exercise, even if performed for only 10-20 minutes, is effective in reducing postprandial glycemia in individuals with type 2 diabetes. RELEVANCE FOR PATIENTS: Moderate-intensity exercise, even of short duration, may benefit individuals with type 2 diabetes on blood glucose control. A fast reduction in postprandial glycemia can be obtained with only ten minutes of exercise that, in turn, may ameliorate some of complications associated with the disease.
RESUMO
This study aimed to analyze both influence of aerobic fitness and active recovery in heart rate (HR) reduction after maximum exercise (i.e. maximum incremental test) in untrained young women. Seventeen women were evaluated (23.88 ± 4.85 years), divided by the medium of peak of consumption of oxygen (30.80 mL. kg-1.min-1), in higher or lower aerobic fitness obtained during a maximum incremental test performed on a cycle ergometer. The post-exercise recovery was performed actively and passively, on two randomly non-consecutive days. It was noticed that HR at 6th and from the 6th to 10th min after the passive and active recovery, respectively, was lower in the higher aerobic fitness group, beyond that, the values of %HR reduction from the 6th to 10th min at 6th min after passive and active recovery, respectively, were higher in the higher aerobic fitness group. After active recovery, HR in 8th and 9th min and %HR reduction of the 8th to 10th min were lower and higher, respectively (p<0.05) than passive recovery in the lower aerobic fitness group. In short, the aerobic fitness influenced HR reduction after maximum exercise in untrained young women, mainly, after passive recovery. Besides that, the active recovery showed benefits in HR reduction in lower aerobic fitness group....(AU)
O presente estudo teve como objetivo analisar a influência da aptidão aeróbia e recuperação ativa na redução da frequência cardíaca (FC) após o exercício máximo (teste incremental máximo) em mulheres jovens não treinadas. Foram avaliadas dezessete mulheres jovens (23,88 ± 4,85 anos), divididas pela mediana do consumo pico de oxigênio (30,80 mLâkg-1 âmin-1 ), em maior ou menor aptidão aeróbia obtida durante um teste incremental máximo. A recuperação pós-exercício foi realizada de forma ativa e passiva, em dois dias experimentais randomizados e não consecutivos. Foi observado que, a FC foi menor no grupo de maior aptidão aeróbia no 6º min após a recuperação passiva e do 6º ao 10º min após a recuperação ativa, além disso, os valores do percentual de redução da FC foram maiores no grupo de maior aptidão aeróbia do 6º ao 10º min e no 6º min após a recuperação passiva e ativa, respectivamente. Após a recuperação ativa, a FC no 8º e 9º min e o percentual de redução da FC do 8º ao 10º min foram menores e maiores, respectivamente (p <0,05) do que após a recuperação passiva no grupo com menor aptidão aeróbia. Em suma, a aptidão aeróbia influenciou na redução da FC pós-exercício máximo em mulheres jovens não treinadas, principalmente após a recuperação passiva. Além disso, a recuperação ativa auxiliou na redução da FC no grupo com menor aptidão aeróbia....(AU)

This study aims to examine the effects of physical training performed in early (preventive) or late (therapeutic) protocols on body weight gain, glucose tolerance, and triglycerides accumulation in rats fed on a fructoserich diet. Wistar rats were allocated into two major groups according to the diet received: Control (C- standard diet) and Fructose (F- diet containing 60% fructose) fed during 120 days. Next, these two groups were distributed into six groups: C and F that were kept inactive; CTE (Control Trained Early) and FTE (Fructose Trained Early) that were submitted to Anaerobic Threshold (AnT) training from 28 to 120 days; CTL (Control Trained Late) and FTL (Fructose Trained Late) trained from 90 to 120 days. Physical Training was composed by swimming (5 days/week) at AnT determined by maximum lactate stead state (MLSS). The Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (oGTT) was performed 48h after the last in vivo analysis and did not showed differences between the groups. After, the animals were euthanized for heart, liver, and adipose tissue extraction. The early exercised animals had lower body weight compared to their sedentary littermates. Also, the fructose-rich diet increased liver lipids content in the sedentary animals and physical training successfully reduced this parameter in both major groups. These results suggests that physical training at the AnT performed in early or late protocols are effective to prevent and treat metabolic disorders related to fructose intake.
Este estudo tem como objetivo examinar os efeitos do treinamento físico realizado em protocolos precoce (preventivo) ou tardio (terapêutico) sobre o ganho de massa corporal, tolerância à glicose e acúmulo de triglicerídeos em ratos alimentados com dieta rica em frutose. Ratos Wistar foram alocados em dois grupos principais de acordo com a dieta recebida: Controle (C, dieta padrão) e Frutose (F, dieta contendo 60% de frutose) durante 120 dias. Em seguida, esses dois grupos foram distribuídos em seis grupos: C e F que foram mantidos inativos; CET (Controle Treinado Precoce) e FTE (Frutose Treinado Precoce) que foram submetidos ao treinamento no Limiar Anaeróbio (AnT) de 28 a 120 dias; CTL (controle treinado tardio) e FTL (frutose treinado tardio) treinados de 90 a 120 dias. O treinamento físico foi composto por natação (5 dias / semana) na AnT determinado pela Máxima Fase Estável de Lactato (MLSS). O Teste Oral de Tolerância à Glicose (oGTT) foi realizado 48 horas após a última análise in vivo e não mostrou diferenças entre os grupos. Depois, os animais foram eutanasiados para extração do coração, fígado e tecido adiposo. Os animais exercitados precocemente apresentaram menor massa corporal em comparação com os sedentários. Além disso, a dieta rica em frutose aumentou o conteúdo de lipídios do fígado nos animais sedentários e o treinamento físico reduziu com sucesso este parâmetro em ambos os grupos principais. Estes resultados sugerem que o treinamento físico no AnT realizado em protocolos precoce ou tardio são eficazes para prevenir e tratar distúrbios metabólicos relacionados à ingestão de frutose.

In recent decades, metabolic syndrome has become a public health problem throughout the world. Longitudinal studies in humans have several limitations due to the invasive nature of certain analyses and the size and randomness of the study populations. Thus, animal models that are able to mimic human physiological responses could aid in investigating metabolic disease. Thus, the present study was designed to analyze metabolic syndrome markers in albino Wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus) of different ages. The following parameters were assessed at two (young), four ( adult), six (adult), and twelve (mature) months of age: glucose tolerance (glucose tolerance test); insulin sensitivity (insulin tolerance test); fasting serum glucose, triglycerides, total cholesterol, HDL cholestero, and LDL cholesterol concentrations; glucose uptake in isolated soleus muscle; and total lipid concentration in subcutaneous, mesenteric, and retroperitoneal adipose tissue. We found that aging triggered signs of metabolic syndrome in Wistar rats. For example, mature rats showed a significant increase in body weight that was associated. In addition, mature rats showed an increase in the serum concentration of triglycerides, total cholesterol, and LDL cholesterol, which is characteristic of dyslipidemia. There was also an increase in serum glucose compared with the younger groups of animals. Therefore, aging Wistar rats appear to be an interesting model to study the changes related to metabolic syndrome.
RESUMO
Introdução: O limiar anaeróbio é comumente identificado em exercícios cíclicos, contudo, também pode ser determinado no exercício resistido (ER) por diferentes métodos, e assim, estimar a carga de trabalho relacionada ao estresse metabólico. No entanto, sua identificação a partir de outros métodos como o modelo matemático da DMáx e principalmente por variáveis mais acessíveis, como a percepção subjetiva de esforço (PSE), ainda não foi analisada. Objetivo: Comparar o limiar de lactato (LL) identificado pelo método de inspeção visual (LLIV) com o método da DMáx aplicado nas respostas do lactato (LLDMáx) e da PSE (PSE12/13 e PSEDMáx) durante exercício resistido incremental. Métodos: Dez praticantes de ER (24,8 ± 3,0 anos) foram submetidos ao teste de uma repetição máxima (1-RM) e a um teste incremental no leg-press, obtendo-se a PSE e o lactato em cada estágio. Resultados: Foi possível identificar o limiar anaeróbio por todos os métodos, entre 30% a 40% de 1-RM. As cargas absolutas, concentrações de lactato sanguíneo e PSE não foram diferentes entre os métodos empregados e apresentaram boa concordância entre si. Conclusão: É possível identificar o limiar anaeróbio tanto por inspeção visual quanto pelo modelo matemático de DMáx para o lactato e PSE, ampliando as possibilidades de determinação do limiar anaeróbio no exercício resistido por métodos de baixo custo e não invasivos.
Introduction: The anaerobic threshold is commonly identified in cyclic exercises, however it can also be identified on resistance exercise (RE) by different methods, and thus can estimate the workload related to metabolic stress. However, its identification by other methods such as mathematical model of DMax and primarily by more accessible variables such as perceived exertion (PE) has not yet been analyzed. Objective: To compare the lactate threshold (LT) identified by visual inspection method (LTVI) with DMax method applied in lactate responses (LTDMax) and PE (PE12/13 and PEDMax) during incremental resistance exercise. Methods: Ten practitioners of RE (24.8±3.0 years) underwent the test of one repetition maximum (1-RM) and an incremental load test in leg-press, obtaining the PE and lactate in each stage. Results: It was possible to identify the anaerobic threshold by all methods, between 30 and 40% of 1-RM. The absolute load, blood lactate concentrations, and PE were not different between the methods used and showed good agreement with each other. Conclusion: It is possible to identify the anaerobic threshold both by visual inspection and by the mathematical model of DMax for lactate and PE, expanding the possibilities for determining the anaerobic threshold in resistance exercise by low cost and non-invasive methods.
