Types. Depending on the type of work performed, fatigue may be mental or physical, with corresponding variations in the metabolic indicators—for example, changes in body temperature or in the bioelectric potentials. It has been found that physical and mental fatigue have a common base; thus the...
Systematic exercise of muscles increases their mass, strength, and efficiency. However, excessive work results in fatigue, that is, loss of muscular efficiency. Inactivity causes muscles to atrophy. FUNCTIONAL CHARACTERISTICS OF SMOOTH MUSCLES. Smooth muscles of the internal organs differ significantly fr...
In the echo intensity analysis, we focused on comparisons within the same age groups. Muscle echo quality was semiquantitatively assessed using the Heckmatt scale, and an assigned Heckmatt score of ≥ 2 indicates an anomaly in the imageCitation20 (Table 1). The Heckmatt scoring system has a...
Performance in many racing sports depends on the ability of the athletes to produce and maintain the highest possible work i.e., the highest power for the duration of the race. To model this energy production in an individualized way, an adaptation and a
Anabolic steroid use Commotio cordis Aortic rupture Myocarditis Epidemiology The frequency of sudden cardiac death in athletes in the current literature is variable depending on the methodology used to gather the data. The general range reported is 1 in 40000 to 1 in 80000. However, there are rep...

labor leads to reduced labor expenditures and a lower cost per unit of output, then the increase in labor intensity does not change the amount of labor expended and value per unit of output, because, as the overall amount of use values grows, so does the amount of value embodied in them...
The present study is a large outpatient study on the treatment of co-morbid depression, anxiety, and psychological distress in cardiac patients. The most important issues of this study are its randomized design, the focus on promotion of health-related behaviors, and the use of innovative technol...
Since T1DM is a disease primarily due to the absence of insulin, insulin administration through daily injections, or an insulin pump, is the mainstay of treatment. In T2DM, diet and exercise may be adequate treatments, especially initially. Other therapies may target insulin sensitivity or increase...
Citation8,Citation73–77 The mechanisms by which acupuncture exerts its therapeutic effects on the cardiovascular system are complex and multifactorial. Here, we will explore some of the key mechanisms underlying the use of acupuncture in cardiovascular disease. Modulation of the Autonomic Nervous System...
