O artigo não contém resumo em português.; This study was undertaken to determine whether colon cancer (CC) and chronic swimming exercise alter rat testis. Eleven weeks old rats were distributed into control group (n=6) and the groups that were induced to develop CC by dimethylhydrazine injections (nEG, EG0, EG2 and EG4; n=10 each group). In the group nEG, the rats did not swim, whereas groups EG0, EG2 and EG4, ...
Physical exercise induces hemodynamic stress. To evaluate if voluntary running and forced running induced different levels of stress protein (Hsp72) in the myocardium of female Wistar rats. Female rats were randomly assigned to the following groups: forced treadmill running group (FR; n= 6), voluntary running group (VR; n=6) and control group (C; n=6). VR group animals had free access to running wheels, and tho...
O objetivo deste estudo foi comparar os valores de pressão arterial sistólica e diastólica periférica (PASp e PADp) e central (PASc e PADc) e o índice de função vascular em corredores de rua de diferentes desempenhos. A amostra foi composta por 48 participantes, 20-40 anos, 32 corredores de rua com diferentes níveis de desempenho, e 16 indivíduos sedentários. Avaliou-se a aptidão cardiorrespiratória e a velocid...
Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo; The aims of this study were: a) to quantify, to classify and to correlate aberrant crypts foci (ACF) and tumors, in rats with 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH)-induced colorectal carcinogenesis; b) to test whether swimming training at different intensities would affect the number of ACF, number, incidence and size of the tumors, food intake, body weight gain, body composition (...
The aim of the study was to compare the cardiovascular autonomic response (CAR) of recreational weight trainers, long distance runners and non-exercised subjects. Men, 21 to 55 years old, were grouped in: recreational weight trainers (W, n = 31), long distance runners (R, n = 28) and non-exercised (C, n = 35). Four strategies of evaluation of the CAR were selected: Resting heart rate (RHR), cold pressor test (C...
