Improvements In Markers Of Fragility After 8-Weeks Of Resistance Training With Instability And/Or Cadence Walking In Persons With Mild To Moderate Parkinson’S Disease, Amanda Jones, Erin Smith, Annie Bane, Lorraine Wilson, Lindsay Edwards, Jill Jumper, Susan Teel, Donna Walls, Martha Smallwood
International Journal of Exercise Science: Conference Proceedings
In persons with Parkinson’s disease (PD), resistance training with instability (RTI) and cadence walking (CW) are effective in improving markers of fragility and motor function. The benefit of combining RTI and CW to markers of fragility and motor function in individuals with PD has not been studied. PURPOSE: to examine the effects of RTI, CW and RTI+CW on markers of fragility (6-minute walk (6MW), timed-up-and-go (TUG), walking speed, stride-to-stride variability and handgrip strength) in individuals with PD. METHODS: individuals diagnosed with mild to moderate PD (N=18 ( 6 female, 12 males); MHY stage=1.53 + 0.50; age = 63.67 …
Plantar Fasciitis, Yeremyah Y. Phillips, Chuck Ruot, Lindsay Edwards
Plantar Fasciitis, Yeremyah Y. Phillips, Chuck Ruot, Lindsay Edwards
International Journal of Exercise Science: Conference Proceedings
CLINICAL PRESENTATION & EXAM: A patient with plantar fasciitis will often present symptoms of pain isolated to the media tubercle of the calcaneus, or a burning sensation over the inner foot arch. The symptoms usually start as a dull intermittent pain but tend to progress to sharp and more persistent pains. Patients will typically experience pain within the first steps of the morning, after a prolonged resting period, or after continual stress to the plantar fascia. Plantar fasciitis is a degenerative syndrome of the plantar fascia as a result of repetitive trauma on the calcaneus. The plantar fascia stabilizes …

King-Devick Test Score Is Linked To Cerebral Vasoreactivity During Acute Recovery Phase Post-Concussion, Madison E. Mccredie, Abigail Reichow, Mathew Stokes, Kathleen R. Bell, Sushmita Purkayastha
International Journal of Exercise Science: Conference Proceedings
The King-Devick (KD) test is a quick screening tool used to detect oculomotor and attention related brain function impairments following a concussion. Adequate cerebral blood flow (CBF) is an indicator of structural and functional integrity and impairments in CBF have been linked to cognitive deficits following concussion. Cerebral vasoreactivity (CVR), a key measure of hemodynamic reserve, is an important factor in CBFregulation. PURPOSE: To examine the association between CVR and oculomotor and attention function, using KD test scores, in collegiate athletes following a concussion. METHOD: Eighteen male and female athletes diagnosed with a sports-related concussion were enrolled in the prospective …

Wainwright, Julia N. Wallen, Anthony M. Sanchez, Noe Deanda, Xavier F. Gonzales, Darryn S. Willoughby, Heather E. Webb, Daniel E. Newmire
The Assessment Of Hydration Status And Renal Markers Associated With Acute Kidney Injury In Ncaa Division I Female Soccer Players During Preseason Training In South Texas: A Pilot Study, Jordan B. Wainwright, Julia N. Wallen, Anthony M. Sanchez, Noe Deanda, Xavier F. Gonzales, Darryn S. Willoughby, Heather E. Webb, Daniel E. Newmire
International Journal of Exercise Science: Conference Proceedings
Recent research suggest that recurrent heat-associated dehydration and strenuous physical exertion may be associated with the development of acute and potentially chronic renal dysfunction. Typical South Texas environmental conditions in August, during preseason, on NCAA female college athletes may warrant concerns for promoting acute kidney injury (AKI). PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to investigate hydration status and renal biomarkers in NCAA Division I female soccer athletes in South Texas during the preseason. METHODS: (Mean ± SEM; n = 12; age: 19.5 ± 0.9 y; ht: 167.6 ± 6.24 cm; wt: 66.6 ± 10.15 kg). Each subject …

Typical procedures for measuring blood lactate involve either finger stick blood samples or venous blood draws. The literature is equivocal regarding whether sweat lactate values change with exercise intensity. Recently, wearable technology devices have been developed to measure sweat lactate. Purpose: To examine the relationship between sweat lactate and blood lactate values during incremental exercise. Methods: This study consisted of 12 (8 male, 4 female) healthy recreationally active individuals (VO2peak 35.5 ± 7.6 ml/kg/min) between the ages of 18 and 25 (22 ± 2 yrs) who volunteered for the study. Participants performed an exercise test on a cycle ergometer …
Acute Renal Responses To Moderate-Intensity Aerobic Exercise With Non-Traditional Markers Of Renal Health And Function In Healthy Individuals: A Pilot Study, David J. Buckley, Ahmed Ismaeel, Kathleen Adair, Autumn Oliver, Evlampia Papoutsi, Kaitlyn Prezioso, Panagiotis Koutakis, Jeffrey Forsse
Acute Renal Responses To Moderate-Intensity Aerobic Exercise With Non-Traditional Markers Of Renal Health And Function In Healthy Individuals: A Pilot Study, David J. Buckley, Ahmed Ismaeel, Kathleen Adair, Autumn Oliver, Evlampia Papoutsi, Kaitlyn Prezioso, Panagiotis Koutakis, Jeffrey Forsse
International Journal of Exercise Science: Conference Proceedings
Aerobic exercise elicits a multitude of physiological improvements in both healthy and diseased populations. However, acute changes in renal function with aerobic exercise remain difficult to quantify by traditional marker serum creatinine (sCr) to estimate glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). Recently, novel biomarkers cystatin C (CyC) and urine epidermal growth factor (uEGF) have been introduced as more reliable markers of renal health and function to be used in conjunction with sCr to assess changes in renal health and function in mid-spectrum CKD. Potentially, greater changes in novel markers of renal health and function similar to mid-spectrum CKD can be observed in …
Heart Rate Variability Responses To Exercise In Mid-Spectrum Chronic Kidney Disease, Matthew Peterson, Jeffrey S. Forsse, Zacharias Papadakis, Peter Grandjean
Heart Rate Variability Responses To Exercise In Mid-Spectrum Chronic Kidney Disease, Matthew Peterson, Jeffrey S. Forsse, Zacharias Papadakis, Peter Grandjean
International Journal of Exercise Science: Conference Proceedings
Heart rate variability (HRV) is a measure of autonomic nervous system (ANS) activity, and decreased HRV is associated with many cardiovascular conditions. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is characterized by a decrease in renal function and may be associated with ANS imbalances in the renal vasculature. Low HRV is associated with CKD incidence. Exercise is able to alter HRV by modulating the ANS. The effect of exercise on HRV in mid-spectrum CKD patients remains understudied. PURPOSE: To determine the effect of steady-state exercise (SSE) and high-intensity interval exercise (HIIE) on post-exercise HRV in patients with stage 3 or 4 CKD. …
The Effect Of Acute Consumption Of Overtime Essential Amino Acids Sports Drink On Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness In The Older Sedentary Population, Andi Johnson, Grant Wagner, Abraham Gomez, Jerene Yazzie, Klaudia Szych, Matthew A. Barlow Phd
The Effect Of Acute Consumption Of Overtime Essential Amino Acids Sports Drink On Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness In The Older Sedentary Population, Andi Johnson, Grant Wagner, Abraham Gomez, Jerene Yazzie, Klaudia Szych, Matthew A. Barlow Phd
International Journal of Exercise Science: Conference Proceedings
Essential amino acids are necessary for nutrition whether obtained by digestion of proteins or by oral supplementation of amino acids. The elderly experience loss of skeletal muscles and decrease in their strength and function, which can lead to poor quality of life. Increased quantity and quality of proteins stimulates muscle protein synthesis that can help combat this natural aging process. Purpose: The aim of this study was to see if consumption of essential amino acid drink high concentrations of leucin (2040 mg/serving) during exercise will attenuate the condition of Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness in the elderly. Also, we aimed to …
