Pollock's Textbook of Cardiovascular Disease and Rehabilitation

Although the mechanisms are not clear, both short and long sleep have been associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease.

Advanced Environmental Exercise Physiology

Even after centuries of research, the fundamental system of control of thermal balance in humans, as well as other mammals and homeotherms, remains controversial.

Advanced Cardiovascular Exercise Physiology eBook

Aerobic exercise training has a variety of hemostatic effects that together provide a cardioprotective effect

Advanced Neuromuscular Exercise Physiology

Here, we will discuss how strength training results in directly measurable changes in the way motor units are recruited during effort.

Biochemistry Primer for Exercise Science 4th Edition eBook

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of short, noncoding RNA molecules that bind to mRNA molecules and play a central role in regulating gene expression through posttranscriptional gene silencing (reviewed in Bushati and Cohen 2007).

Biochemistry Primer for Exercise Science 4th Edition eBook

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) are sometimes collectively referred to as reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS). RONS, and particularly the highly reactive hydroxyl radical, can react with many molecules in cells, including DNA, proteins, and lipids.

Physiological Tests for Elite Athletes-2nd Edition

Despite the widespread integration of hydrotherapy into an athlete�s postexercise recovery regime, information regarding these interventions is largely anecdotal. Although a number of physiological responses to water immersion are well researched, the underlying mechanisms related to postexercise recovery are poorly understood.

Physiological Tests for Elite Athletes 2nd Edition eBook

Although the blood lactate response to exercise is used widely to control and monitor training programs, many factors in addition to training adaptation can affect the blood lactate response. Therefore, one needs to consider the following points when collecting, analyzing, and interpreting blood lactate measurements.

Clinical Exercise Physiology-3rd Edition

Individuals are diagnosed with ID based on intelligence and mental ability and adaptive skills.

Clinical Exercise Physiology-3rd Edition

Auscultation of, or listening to the sounds made by, the heart is but one part of a comprehensive cardiac examination.
