Interobserver Agreement of the Static Methods of Evaluating the Types of Footprint in Runners

Abstract Objective To evaluate the accuracy of interobserver diagnostic methods of the type of footprint among running athletes using three evaluation methods: physical examination, podoscopy, and baropodometry compared with radiographic measurement of Meary angles and calcaneal pitch. Methods This is ...

Autonomic function may not modulate irisin release in healthy adults: findings from a randomized cross-over study

ABSTRACT Objective Autonomic nervous system, especially the sympathetic nervous system, may stimulate the expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator-1α, which regulates irisin. This study aimed to explore whether there was any association between autonomic function...

Influence of Altitude and Environmental Temperature on Muscle Functional and Mechanical Activation After 30' Time Trial Run

MHSalud; 17 (1), 2020
Abstract: The purpose of this study was to explore the influence of altitude and environmental temperature on muscle mechanical and functional activation after 30' Time Trial run (30' TT). Twenty physical active males (Age= 20.4 ±3.21 years, VO2max= 47.2 ±5.2 ml/kg/min) performed a 30' TT in three diff...

Demostración original de la interferencia de los efectos modeladores corticales expansivos de un entrenamiento sobre los de otro ulterior: (la modelación ‘marca el terreno’ para la remodelación)
Original demonstration of the interference of the expansive cortical modeling effects of one training on those of another further training: (modeling "sets limits" for remodeling)

Actual. osteol; 16 (1), 2020
La expansión modeladora de la geometría cortical de un hueso inducida por su entorno mecánico podría ser difícil de modificar por estímulos ulteriores con diferente direccionalidad. Este estudio, que por primera vez combina datos tomográficos del peroné (pQCT) y dinamométricos de la musculatura ...

Body composition among long distance runners
