Correlações entre parâmetros aeróbios e desempenho em esforços intermitentes de alta intensidade

The purpose of the study was to examine the relationships between intermittent high-intensity efforts (RAST) parameters and variables related to aerobic metabolism (anaerobic threshold; LAN, maximal oxygen uptake; VO2MAX and velocity correspondent to VO2MAX; iVO(2MAX)). Eight under-17 (U17) soccer players (16 +/- 1 years) participated in the study. The participants were submitted to a graded exercise test and six maximal sprints of 35m with 10 seconds of passive recovery between each effort (RAST). The RAST parameters were not significant correlated with VO2MAX and LAN. However absolute and relative mean power were significantly correlated with iVO(2MAX) (r=0.79 e r=0.85, respectively). Furthermore, the fatigue index and the relative peak power were significantly correlated with the iVO(2MAX) (r=-0,57 e r=0,73, respectively). In conclusion, the only aerobic variable correlated with performance in consecutive efforts with brief recovery periods, such as RAST, is iVO(2MAX).

Comparação das variáveis hemodinâmicas durante o teste de caminhada de seis minutos e o teste de escada em adultos saudáveis

The effort test can be used to assess functional capacity, clinical hemodynamic and metabolic response at the effort, the risk of postoperative pulmonary complications and to assess the response of patients with lung diseases submitted to physiotherapy treatment. Among the stress tests we highlight the Six Minute Test Walk (6 MWT) and Stair Climbing Test (SCT), because they are easy to use and low cost. Especially the SCT is widely used in patients preoperatively. Objective: To compare the effects of six minute walk test and stair climbing test under the hemodynamic and oxygenation in healthy adults. Methods: We conducted a study with healthy subjects above 50 years. The fi rst performed was 6 MWT in quick step with encouragement, in a plan corridor of 30 meters, where the shade was determined the distance walked in 6 minutes, after 6 MWT was performed de SCT with encouragement, on a ladder in shade, consists of 44 steps, with 4 bids and bid by 11 steps, each step measured 16 cm in a total of 7.04 m of height, where the rise time was clocked. Before and after the two tests were measured respiratory rate, pulse, blood pressure and oxygen saturation. Results: We evaluated 21 patients with age 59.6 ± 5.4 years, 5 men and 16 women. The average distance covered on the 6MWT was 496.4 ± 102.2 meters and the average time in SCT 22.6 ± 5.4 seconds. The variables pulse, respiratory rate, systolic blood pressure and Borg scale presented a signifi - cant increase after the tests, however the variables oxygen saturation and diastolic blood pressure did not change signifi cantly. Conclusion: The variables pulse, respiratory rate, systolic blood pressure and Borg scale tests increased after six-minute walk test and stair climbing test but with greater signifi cance after the stair climbing test. Oxygen saturation and diastolic blood pressure did not change signifi cantly after the tests.

Efeitos da atividade física sobre equilíbrio, risco de quedas e função cognitiva de idosos com demência de Alzheimer: Salma Stéphany Soleman Hernandez. -

The Alzheimer’s dementia represents a clinical condition inherent to many chronic and neurodegenerative diseases that are usually related to a decline in the cognitive and physical functions. The objective of this experimental design research was to analyze the effects of a regular and systemized physical activity program over the cognitive functions, balance and risk of falls of elderly with Alzheimer’s Dementia (DA). The sample was made of 16 elderly with DA, distributed in two groups: a) intervention group – GI (9 subjects that had participated in a program of physical activity, that consisted of 3 weekly sessions of 60 minutes each, in alternated days and with a duration of 6 months); b) control group – GC (7 subjects that did not participate in the program of physical activity). Both groups maintained the doctoral and pharmacological assistance routine. The subjects passed through two different evaluations (pre and post-intervention) the questionnaire (Mini-exam of Mental State for cognitive functions) and motor tests (Berg Functional Balance Scale – EEFB, Timed Up-and-Go (TUG) time (TUGs) and steps (TUGp) and the test of agility and dynamic balance (AGILEQ) of the American Alliance for Health, Physical Education Recreation and Dance for elderly). The obtained results were, respectively in the pre and post-intervention moments: a) AGILEQ (GI = 39,1 ± 10,2 and 38,4 ± 8,9 and GC = 45,6 ± 16,7 and 59,9 ± 22,0 seconds) with the statistically interaction significant (ANOVA two-way; F1,14 = 32,07; p=0,01) between groups and moments; b) TUGs (GI = 9,8 ± 2,5 and 9,5 ± 3,3 and GC = 10,6 ± 4,5 and 12,7 ± 7,3 seconds) the test UMann Whitney did not appoint any significant differences between the groups in the post-intervention moment, however the analyzes of Wilcoxon evidenced a ...(Complete abstract click electronic access below)

Sodium bicarbonate supplementation improved MAOD but is not correlated with 200- and 400-m running performances: a double-blind, crossover, and placebo-controlled study

The aim of the study was to investigate the effects of acute supplementation of sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) on maximal accumulated oxygen deficit (MAOD) determined by a single supramaximal effort (MAODALT) in running and the correlation with 200- and 400-m running performances. Fifteen healthy men (age, 23 ± 4 years; maximal oxygen uptake, 50.6 ± 6.1 mL·kg(-1)·min(-1)) underwent a maximal incremental exercise test and 2 supramaximal efforts at 110% of the intensity associated with maximal oxygen uptake, which was carried out after ingesting either 0.3 g·kg(-1) body weight NaHCO3 or a placebo (dextrose) and completing 200- and 400-m performance tests. The study design was double-blind, crossover, and placebo-controlled. Significant differences were found between the NaHCO3 and placebo conditions for MAODALT (p = 0.01) and the qualitative inference for substantial changes showed a very likely positive effect (98%). The lactic anaerobic contribution in the NaHCO3 ingestion condition was significantly higher (p < 0.01) and showed a very likely positive effect (99% chance), similar to that verified for peak blood lactate concentration (p < 0.01). No difference was found for time until exhaustion (p = 0.19) or alactic anaerobic contribution (p = 0.81). No significant correlations were observed between MAODALT and 200- and 400-m running performance tests. Therefore, we can conclude that both MAODALT and the anaerobic lactic metabolism are modified after acute NaHCO3 ingestion, but it is not correlated with running performance.
