Purpose. We assessed the exercise tolerance and cardiorespiratory responses during 2‐month weight‐loss programmes using the 6‐minute walking test (6MWT) in obese children. Methods. Twenty‐eight male obese children were randomly assigned to either a control group (C), an energy restriction group (R), an exercise training at maximum lipid‐oxidation (LIPOXmax) group (E), or an energy restriction/training group (RE). The body composition, the submaximal incremental cycling exercise, and the 6MWT were performed before and after the 2‐month programme. Results. After the programme, RE group showed a significant improvement of body composition (body weight reduced by 6.3 ± 1.5 kg, p < 0.01), and an increase of 6‐minute walking distance (6MWD) (+13.7%, p < 0.01). Similarly, maximum oxygen uptake calculated according to the American College of Science Medicine guideline (VO2maxACSM) and VO2max predicted from 6MWD were respectively higher (+12.9% and +10.0%, p < 0.01) than the R or E groups. Bland‐Altman analysis highlighted an agreement of these two methods of VO2max measurement. Moreover, in all participants the 6MWD was significantly correlated with VO2maxACSM and LIPOXmax (r = 0.77, p < 0.001 and r = 0.67, p < 0.01; respectively) before the programme as well as their changes in percentage over the programme (r = 0.85 and r = 0.86, p < 0.0001; respectively). Conclusions. We concluded that a 2‐month weight‐loss programme including energy restriction and exercise training targeted at LIPOXmax improved body composition and cardiorespiratory tolerance in obese children. Furthermore, the 6MWT could be considered as a useful and reliable tool for the assessment and the follow‐up of cardiorespiratory responses during weight‐loss programme in obese children.

Previously published data (J Bone Miner Res (2005); 20: 471) did not give evidence that the administration of the nitric oxide precursor L-arginine increases bone formation and decreases bone resorption in postmenopausal women. Data of this trial were reanalysed for putative effects of L-arginine on muscle mass and muscular function. Therefore, 11 females of the former study group (n=15; age 54.5+/-4.1 years; daily oral administration of 18 g L-arginine hydrochloride (equivalent of 14.2 g L-arginine) over 6 months) and 12 females of the control group (n=15; age 55.3+/-4.4 years; daily administration of 18 g dextrose over 6 months) were analysed for biomechanical parameters (MIGF, maximal isometric grip force; PJF, peak jump force; PJP, peak jump power) and for the cross-sectional muscle area (MA) and fat area (FA) at forearm and leg (calf) measured by peripheral quantitative computed tomography. The study was performed in a double-blind design. The assessment of muscular and biomechanical parameters was undertaken before and after 6 months of L-arginine versus placebo administration. L-arginine-supplemented females had a significant increase of PJF/kg in comparison with the control group. PJP/kg, MIGF, MA and FA were not significantly influenced by the administration of L-arginine. In conclusion, the administration of L-arginine increased maximal force in mechanographic analyses and may prevent a decline of muscle force in postmenopausal women. 相似文献

Background and Purpose . The six‐minute walk test (6MWT) is increasingly used in clinical practice. The aims of this study were to determine the reproducibility of the 6MWT in obese children and adolescents, to describe walking capacity in this population and compare the results with values from normal‐weight children (known group validity), and, finally, to describe the correlation between distance walked and estimated maximum oxygen uptake (VO2max). Methods . Reproducibility was determined by a test–retest design and known group validity by a comparative design. The 6MWT was first test–retested in 49 obese children (30 boys, 19 girls, 8–16 years, body mass index [BMI] 24.9–52.1 kg?m?2). Then, for validation, 250 obese children (126 boys, 124 girls, 8–16 years, BMI 23.2–57 kg/m2) and 97 normal‐weight children (48 boys, 49 girls, 8–16 years, BMI 13.3–23.2 kg·m?2) performed the 6MWT. The obese children also performed a sub‐maximal bicycle ergometry test. Results . In the test–retest, the obese children walked 571 m the first test and 57 m the second (p = 0.578). The measurement error (Sw) was 24 m, coefficient of variation (CV): 4.3% and the intraclass correlation (ICC1:1): 0.84. Repeatability was 68 m, and limits of agreement were +71 and ?65 m. In comparison mean (standard deviation), six‐minute walk distance (6MWD) in the obese children was 571 m (65.5), and in the normal‐weight children, 663 m (61.1) (p < 0.001). The correlation between 6MWD and estimated VO2max (r = 0.34) was low. Conclusions . The 6MWT showed good reproducibility and known group validity, and can be recommended for use in clinical practice in the studied population. To evaluate individual outcomes after intervention, the 6MWD needs to change by >68 m to be statistically significant. The 6MWD performed by obese children averaged 86% of the distance normal‐weight children walked. In obese children, the correlation between 6MWD and estimated VO2max was low, hence the 6MWT cannot substitute a bicycle ergometry test. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

Cardiac power output (CPO) is an integrative measure of overall cardiac function as it accounts for both, flow‐ and pressure‐generating capacities of the heart. The purpose of the present study was twofold: (i) to assess cardiac power output and its response to exercise in athletes and non‐athletes and (ii) to determine the relationship between cardiac power output and reserve and selected measures of cardiac function and structure. Twenty male athletes and 32 age‐ and gender‐matched healthy sedentary controls participated in this study. CPO was calculated as the product of cardiac output and mean arterial pressure, expressed in watts. Measures of hemodynamic status, cardiac structure and pumping capability were assessed by echocardiography. CPO was assessed at rest and after peak bicycle exercise. At rest, the two groups had similar values of cardiac power output (1·08 ± 0·2 W versus 1·1 ± 0·24 W, P>0·05), but the athletes demonstrated lower systolic blood pressure (109·5 ± 6·2 mmHg versus 117·2 ± 8·2 mmHg, P<0·05) and thicker posterior wall of the left ventricle (9·8 ± 1 mm versus 9 ± 1·1 mm, P<0·05). Peak CPO was higher in athletes (5·87 ± 0·75 W versus 5·4 ± 0·69 W, P<0·05) as was cardiac reserve (4·92 ± 0·66 W versus 4·26 ± 0·61 W, P<0·05), respectively. Peak exercise CPO and reserve were only moderately correlated with end‐diastolic volume (r = 0·54; r = 0·46, P<0·05) and end‐diastolic left ventricular internal diameter (r = 0·48; r = 0·42, P<0·05), respectively. Athletes demonstrated greater maximal cardiac pumping capability and reserve than non‐athletes. The study provides new evidence that resting measures of cardiac structure and function need to be considered with caution in interpretation of maximal cardiac performance. 相似文献

Scand J Caring Sci; 2011; 25; 126–133 Caught between conduct and free choice ‐ a field study of an empowering programme in lifestyle change for obese patients The aim of this study was to investigate understandings and strategies of empowerment in Learning and Mastery Centres, in a course in lifestyle change for morbidly obese patients. A field study was conducted with nonparticipant observation, and data analysis was inspired by Foucauldian discourse analysis. The analysis revealed powerful discourses underlying the course, and the analysis showed how different discourses were set at play within the teaching strategies in the course. The course leaders balanced powerful aspects that involved directing the participants towards strategies promoting their autonomy. The analysis revealed how strategies to reduce the impression of direction and conduct are powerful actions. From a Foucauldian perspective of power, this analysis demonstrates how power is everywhere as a productive force. When creating programmes to empower patients to help them deal with their health, it seems vital that health professionals examine power. By accepting the presence of power, professionals can examine the truth motivation underlying an empowerment programme. 相似文献

Healthcare professionals with limited access to ergospirometry remain in need of valid and simple submaximal exercise tests to predict maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max). Despite previous validation studies concerning fixed‐rate step tests, accurate equations for the estimation of VO2max remain to be formulated from a large sample of healthy adults between age 18–75 years (n > 100). The aim of this study was to develop a valid equation to estimate VO2max from a fixed‐rate step test in a larger sample of healthy adults. A maximal ergospirometry test, with assessment of cardiopulmonary parameters and VO2max, and a 5‐min fixed‐rate single‐stage step test were executed in 112 healthy adults (age 18–75 years). During the step test and subsequent recovery, heart rate was monitored continuously. By linear regression analysis, an equation to predict VO2max from the step test was formulated. This equation was assessed for level of agreement by displaying Bland–Altman plots and calculation of intraclass correlations with measured VO2max. Validity further was assessed by employing a Jackknife procedure. The linear regression analysis generated the following equation to predict VO2max (l min?1) from the step test: 0·054(BMI)+0·612(gender)+3·359(body height in m)+0·019(fitness index)?0·012(HRmax)?0·011(age)?3·475. This equation explained 78% of the variance in measured VO2max (F = 66·15, P<0·001). The level of agreement and intraclass correlation was high (ICC = 0·94, P<0·001) between measured and predicted VO2max. From this study, a valid fixed‐rate single‐stage step test equation has been developed to estimate VO2max in healthy adults. This tool could be employed by healthcare professionals with limited access to ergospirometry. 相似文献

BACKGROUND:
In certain diseases, functional constraints establish a greater relationship with muscle power than muscle strength. However, in hereditary peripheral polyneuropathies, no such relationship was found in the literature.OBJECTIVE:
In children with Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT), to identify the impact of muscle strength and range of movement on the static/dynamic balance and standing long jump based on quantitative and functional variables.METHOD:
The study analyzed 19 participants aged between 6 and 16 years, of both genders and with clinical diagnoses of CMT of different subtypes. Anthropometric data, muscle strength of the lower limbs (hand-held dynamometer), ankle and knee range of movement, balance (Pediatric Balance Scale) and standing long jump distance were obtained by standardized procedures. For the statistical analysis, Pearson and Spearman correlation coefficients were used.RESULTS:
There was a strong positive correlation between balance and the muscle strength of the right plantar flexors (r=0.61) and dorsiflexors (r=0.59) and a moderate correlation between balance and the muscle strength of inversion (r=0.41) and eversion of the right foot (r=0.44). For the long jump and range of movement, there was a weak positive correlation with right and left plantar flexion (r=0.20 and r=0.12, respectively) and left popliteal angle (r=0.25), and a poor negative correlation with left dorsiflexion (r=-0.15).CONCLUSIONS:
The data on the patients analyzed suggests that the maintenance of distal muscle strength favors performance during balance tasks, while limitations in the range of movement of the legs seem not to be enough to influence the performance of the horizontal long jump. 相似文献13.

Background Obesity is a cardiovascular risk factor associated with endothelial dysfunction, but the effect of different weight loss strategies on endothelial function is not known. The effect of diet on endothelial function in two hypocaloric diets, a very‐low‐carbohydrate diet (A) and a Mediterranean diet (M), was measured by brachial artery flow‐mediated dilation (FMD). Design Using a longitudinal, randomized, open study design, subjects were engaged in a 2‐month weight loss diet. FMD, inflammatory cytokines [interleukin‐6 (IL‐6) and tumour necrosis factor‐α] and a marker of oxidative stress [8‐iso‐prostaglandin F2α (8‐iso‐PGF2α)] were measured in subjects on three occasions: before initiating the diet (T0), after 5–7 days of dieting (T5) and after 2 months of dieting (T60). The very short‐ and medium‐term time points were established to discriminate respectively the effect of the diet itself (T5) from that of weight loss (T60). Twenty overweight/obese but otherwise healthy women (BMI: 27–34·9 kg m?2; age 30–50 years) completed the study. Results Group A lost more weight (mean ± SEM; ?7·6 ± 0·8 kg) than group M (?4·9 ± 0·6 kg, P = 0·014) at T60. The FMD was not significantly different between the two groups at T0 (group A: 12·2 ± 2·9% vs. group B: 10·3 ± 2·3%, P = ns). In group A, FMD was significantly reduced at T5 and returned to baseline at T60; in group M, FMD increased at T5 and returned to baseline at T60 (P = 0·007 for diet × time interaction). Serum concentrations of IL‐6 and 8‐iso‐PGF2α were not significantly different between the two groups at T0 and increased significantly at T5 only in group A (P < 0·001 and P < 0·005 respectively). Conclusion As endothelial dysfunction is known to be associated with acute cardiovascular events, this study suggests that the cardiovascular risk might be increased in the first days of a very‐low‐carbohydrate diet. 相似文献

Sporadic inclusion body myositis (sIBM) is a systemic disease that is characterized by substantial skeletal muscle weakness and muscle inflammation, leading to impaired physical function. The objective was to investigate the effect of low‐load resistance exercise with concurrent partial blood flow restriction to the working muscles (blood‐flow‐restricted (BFR) training) in a patient with sIBM. The training consisted of 12 weeks of lower extremity BFR training with low training loads (~25‐RM). The patient was tested for mechanical muscle function and functional capacity before and after 6 and 12 weeks of training. Maximal horizontal gait speed increased by 19%, which was accompanied by 38–92% improvements in mechanical muscle function (maximal isometric strength, rate of force development and muscle power). In conclusion, BFR training was well tolerated by the patient with sIBM and led to substantial improvements in mechanical muscle function and gait speed. 相似文献

Essentials
- Obesity is a potential risk factor for development of thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP).
- Obese ADAMTS‐13‐deficient mice were triggered with von Willebrand factor (VWF).
- Depletion of hepatic and splenic macrophages protects against thrombocytopenia in this model.
- VWF enhances phagocytosis of platelets by macrophages, dose‐dependently.
