2. 1. Physiological responses to acute physical and psychosocial stress- relation to aerobic capacity and exercise training

   Author : Elin Arvidsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Acute stress; exercise training; aerobic capacity; physiological responses;

   Abstract : Exercise training is an effective method to promote health and to prevent development of disease. Both physical and mental health have been shown to benefit from exercise training. It has also been speculated that physical exercise might affect responses to acute psychosocial stress. READ MORE

4. 2. Mitochondrial function in human skeletal muscle: with special reference to exercise and training

   Author : Michail Tonkonogi; Högskolan Dalarna; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : aerobic metabolism; oxidative phosphorylation; mitochondria; oxygen utilisation; citrate synthase; ADP sensitivity; ATP; muscle fibres; hydrogen ions; lactate; free radicals; proton leak; uncoupling; exercise; aerobic metabolism; oxidative phosphorylation; mitochondria; oxygen utilisation; citrate synthase; ADP sensitivity; ATP; muscle fibres; hydrogen ions; lactate; free radicals; proton leak; uncoupling; exercise;

   Abstract : The overall objective of this thesis was to study the adaptation of oxidative function in human skeletal muscle to acute exercise of different modes, intensities and durations, and to endurance training. The effects of endurance training on mitochondrial function were evaluated in cross-sectional and longitudinal studies by measurements of mitochondrial oxygen consumption in isolated mitochondria and permeabilised muscle fibres and measurements of mitochondrial ATP production rate in isolated mitochondria.

5. 3. The Effects of Aerobic Exercise on Human Skeletal Muscle Adaptations to Resistance Exercise

   Author : Tommy Lundberg; Per Tesch; Hans Hoppeler; Mittuniversitetet; []
   Keywords : concurrent training; endurance; gene expression; hypertrophy; muscle strength and power; protein phosphorylation;

   Abstract : Aerobic exercise (AE) may interfere with muscle adaptations induced by resistance exercise (RE). Three experimental campaigns were conducted to explore the influence of AE on molecular, functional and muscular adaptations to acute and chronic RE. Twenty-nine men performed unilateral knee extensor RE preceded by AE (AE+RE). READ MORE

6. 4. Community-based osteoporosis prevention: Physical activity in relation to bone density, fall prevention, and the effect of training programmes : The Vadstena Osteoporosis Prevention Project

   Author : Ann-Charlotte Grahn Kronhed; Margareta Möller; Toomas Timpka; Leif Svanström; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Vadstena Osteoporosis Prevention Project VOPP ; weight-bearing training study; physical activity; training programmes; elderly; forearm bone mineral density BMD ; balance-training; Orthopaedics; Ortopedi;

   Abstract : This thesis is based on studies of the ten-year community-based intervention programme entitled, the Vadstena Osteoporosis Prevention Project (VOPP). The specific aims of the research were to describe the effects of physical activity and training programmes on bone mass and balance performance in adults, to determine whether a fall risk prevention programme could motivate personal actions among the elderly, to ascertain whether the intervention programme could reduce the incidence of forearm and hip fractures.

7. 5. Efficiency of aerobic exercise training in women and men with chronic heart failure

   Author : Raija Tyni-Lenné; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : aerobic exercise training; blood lactate; chronic heart failure; exercise capacity; gender; health-related quality of life; physical training; plasma norepinephrine; rehabilitation; skeletal muscle; walking performance;

   Abstract : The syndrome of heart failure is one of the major public health problems in many countries. Despite advances in pharmacological therapy, patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) are characterized by exercise intolerance and a reduced health-related quality of life. READ MORE
