Vascular function after acute aerobic exercise in adults with and without type ...
Marôco, João Luís; Arrais, Inês; Silvestre, Tiago; Pinto, Marco; Laranjo, Sergio; Magalhães, João P.; Santa-Clara, Helena; Fernhall, Bo; Melo, XavierIt is unknown whether type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) influences the vascular function response to aerobic exercise. We examined brachial artery flow-mediated dilation (FMD) and flow-mediated slowing (FMS) of pulse wave velocity (PWV), 10-and 60-min after a high-intensity interval exercise (HIIE) and moderate-intensity continuous exercise (MICE) in adults with and without T2DM. Twelve older male adults with T2D...
Assessing local acid mine drainage impacts on natural regeneration-revegetation...
Pereira, Manuel F.; Magalhães, João P.; Maurício, António M.; Caçador, Isabel; Martins-Dias, Susete; Ferreira, RenataSão Domingos sulfide mine was shut down more than 50 years ago leaving behind eroded and depositional surfaces due to acid mine drainage (AMD). The aim of this study was to assess six selected sites subjected to AMD, considered phytotoxic regions characterized by vegetation scarcity. Two main criteria, nature and composition of soluble fractions and total chemistry of surficial products related to jarosites pre...
Mediating role of physical fitness and fat mass on the associations between phy...
Henriques-Neto, Duarte; Magalhães, João P.; Júdice, Pedro B.; Hetherington-Rauth, Megan; Peralta, Miguel; Marques, Adilson; Sardinha, Luís B.We aimed to assess if the relationship between VPA and bone health is simultaneously mediated by PF and fat mass in adolescents. Bone health was assessed by quantitative ultrasound (QUS) in 412 participants (221 girls) aged 10–18 years. VPA was assessed by accelerometry and PF was measured using specific protocols from FITescola®. Fat mass (%) was assessed using two skinfolds (triceps and calf). Parallel mediat...
Impact of combined training with different exercise intensities on inflammatory...
Magalhães, João P.; Santos, Diana A.; Correia, Inês; Hetherington-Rauth, Megan; Ribeiro, Rogério; Raposo, João F.; Matos, Andreia; Bicho, ManuelBackground: Exercise is a well-accepted strategy to improve lipid and infammatory profle in individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2DM). However, the exercise intensity having the most benefts on lipids and infammatory markers in patients with T2DM remains unclear. We aimed to analyse the impact of a 1-year combined high-intensity interval training (HIIT) with resistance training (RT), and a moderate continuous tra...
Effects of combined training with different intensities on vascular health in p...
Magalhães, João P.; Melo, Xavier; Correia, Inês; Ribeiro, Rogério T.; Raposo, João; Dores, Hélder; Bicho, Manuel; Sardinha, Luís B.Background: Exercise, when performed on a regular basis, is a well-accepted strategy to improve vascular function in patients with type 2 diabetes. However, the exercise intensity that yields maximal adaptations on structural and functional indices in patients with type 2 diabetes remains uncertain. Our objective was to analyze the impact of a 1-year randomized controlled trial of combined high-intensity interv...
Effectiveness of high-intensity interval training combined with resistance trai...
Magalhães, João P.; Júdice, Pedro B.; Ribeiro, Rogério; Andrade, Rita; Raposo, João; Dores, Hélder; Bicho, Manuel; Sardinha, Luís B.Aims: To evaluate the impact of one-year high intensity interval training (HIIT) combined with resistance training (RT) vs continuous moderate intensity training (MCT) combined with RT on glycaemic control, body composition and cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) in patients with type 2 diabetes. Materials and Methods: A randomized controlled trial included 96 participants with type 2 diabetes for a one-year superv...
