Previous studies have reported that people with fibromyalgia (FM) could suffer from mitochondrial dysfunction. However, the consumption of muscle oxygen during physical exercise has been poorly studied. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the response of muscle oxygen during a fatigue protocol in people with FM and healthy controls (HC). In addition, the peak torque and the total work were assessed. A total ...
Physical exercise is a useful model to assess the psychophysiological response of people with FM to fatigue. Thus, the present case-control report aimed to analyze the psychophysiological response of a young fibromyalgia patient and a control participant without fibromyalgia during a muscle fatigue protocol. With this aim, a 27-year-old female fibromyalgia patient with a 4-year diagnosis and a healthy 28-year-o...

The aim of the present case control report was to analyze peripheral vascular response of fibromyalgia patient in an intense physical exercise fatigue situation. We analyzed a female fibromyalgia patient, 55 years, 65 kg, 156 cm, 26.7 Kg/m2, with 3 year from the fibromyalgia diagnosis and 10 year of fibromyalgia symptomatology: and a control healthy female participant, 57 years, 73 kg, 163 cm, 27.5 Kg/m2. The p...
This study was designed to evaluate and compare the total strength and resistance strength of the lower limbs of futsal players during the follicular and luteal phases of the menstrual cycle. In this investigation, 14 women, aged between 17 and 33 years old, were evaluated, and each one performed two evaluations of each test, corresponding to the phases of the menstrual cycle: test of global force evaluation wi...
Previous studies showed that people with Fibromyalgia (FM) suffer from dysautonomia. Dysautonomia consists of persistent autonomic nervous system hyperactivity at rest and hyporeactivity during stressful situations. There is evidence that parameters reflecting the complex interplay between the autonomic nervous system and the cardiovascular system during exercise can provide significant prognostic information. ...
