Abstract

Background: The aim of this study was to analyze validity of BORG-Scale (6-20) while eccentric muscle activity. BORG-Scale is a very valid possibility to rate perceived exertion while concentric muscle activity. It allows to estimate heart rate and therefore stress for cardiovascular system in an easy applicable manner. Material and Methods: Twelve participants (28.610.3 years / 173.36.8 cm / 68.814.3 kg) absolved a training program on a softroboter. This consisted of a braking movement while four times 5 minutes with alternating right respectively left leg movements during nine sec eccentric muscle work with varying load (15, 25, 35, 45 kg) followed by a one sec lasting concentric back movement. During the program heart rate and BORG-scale was measured after 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 Minutes for local exertion in the left respectively the right leg as well as in total. Results: Although in the here analyzed movements BORG-Scale was indicating alternating exertion, however the postulated relationship (heart rate=10 x BORG (6-20) - value) was not detectable. Limitations and Conclusions: The findings are explainable yet eccentric muscle activity is a Titin based and not O2 respectively ATP coupled contraction form. Therefore, with the same load in eccentric muscle activity only around one fourth O2is needed what probably affects perceived exertion accordingly. Furthermore, differences in the accuracy of perception between concentric and eccentric movements seem to exist. However, study was only conducted with 12 healthy participants, as a consequence only first hints can be made and no general recommendations. Measurements of O2, heart rate and EMG during the same protocol with larger samples could reveal more accurately factors determining rate of perceived exertion while eccentric muscle activity.KEY WORDS: Softroboter, Fall Prophylaxis, Cardiovascular Prevention, Rehabilitation

Abstract

As the knowledge base and importance of mitochondrial physiology to evolution, health and diseaseexpands, the necessity for harmonizing the terminologyconcerning mitochondrial respiratory states and rates has become increasingly apparent. Thechemiosmotic theoryestablishes the mechanism of energy transformationandcoupling in oxidative phosphorylation. Theunifying concept of the protonmotive force providestheframeworkfordeveloping a consistent theoretical foundation ofmitochondrial physiology and bioenergetics.We followthe latest SI guidelines and those of the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry(IUPAC)onterminology inphysical chemistry, extended by considerationsofopen systems and thermodynamicsof irreversible processes.Theconcept-driven constructive terminology incorporates the meaning of each quantity and alignsconcepts and symbols withthe nomenclature of classicalbioenergetics. We endeavour to provide a balanced view ofmitochondrial respiratory control and a critical discussion on reporting data of mitochondrial respiration in terms of metabolic flows and fluxes.Uniform standards for evaluation of respiratory states and rates will ultimatelycontribute BEC 2020.1 doi:10.26124/bec:2020-0001.v1www.bioenergetics-communications.org3of 44to reproducibility between laboratories and thussupport the development of datarepositoriesof mitochondrial respiratory function in species, tissues, and cells.Clarity of concept and consistency of nomenclature facilitate effective transdisciplinary communication, education, and ultimately further discovery.

Abstract

A study was conducted on the physiologic aspects of long-term eccentric (Ecc) exercise. In particular, the effects of Ecc training on low motor muscle strength and muscle injury and on oxygen uptake during exercise were investigated. The findings demonstrated that Ecc produces improved sometric leg strength and only resulted in slight muscle soreness. The clinical implications of the results were positive for enhancing skeletal muscle strenght with low risks of injury.

Abstract

The concentration of RNAs produced by the mitochondria and the nucleus and mitochondrial DNA is more in endurance-trained athletes. However the concentration of DNA in the chromosomes is not affected. This increase in the concentration of the RNA is due to pretranslational mechanisms, and the genes encoded by the mitochondria are the same in both athletes and sedentary individuals.

Steiner, R., Meyer, K., Lippuner, K., Schmid, J.-P, Saner, H., Hoppeler, H., Steiner, R., Meyer, K., Lippuner, K., Schmid, J.-P, Saner, H., and Hoppeler, H.

Abstract

This study evaluated the effects of 8weeks of eccentric endurance training (EET) in male subjects (age range 42-66years) with coronary artery disease (CAD). EET was compared to concentric endurance training (CET) carried out at the same metabolic exercise intensity, three times per week for half an hour. CET (n=6) was done on a conventional cycle ergometer and EET (n=6) on a custom-built motor-driven ergometer. During the first 5weeks of the training program the metabolic load was progressively increased to 60% of peak oxygen uptake in both groups. At this metabolic load, mechanical work rate achieved was 97 (8)W [mean (SE)] for CET and 338 (34)W for EET, respectively. Leg muscle mass was determined by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, quadriceps strength with an isokinetic dynamometer and muscle fibre composition of the vastus lateralis muscle with morphometry. The leg muscle mass increased significantly in both groups by some 3%. Strength parameters of knee extensors improved in EET only. Significant changes of +11 (4.9)%, +15 (3.2)% and +9 (2.5)% were reached for peak isometric torque and peak concentric torques at 60°s−1 and 120°s−1, respectively. Fibre size increased significantly by 19% in CET only. In conclusion, the present investigation showed that EET is feasible in middle-aged CAD patients and has functional advantages over CET by increasing muscle strength. Muscle mass increased similarly in both groups whereas muscle structural composition was differently affected by the respective training protocols. Potential limitations of this study are the cautiously chosen conditioning protocol and the restricted number of subjects

Abstract

Background and objectives. Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) frequently suffer from muscle weakness. Oral administration of creatine has been shown to improve muscle strength in healthy subjects. The objective of this study was to examine the effect of oral creatine supplementation on muscle weakness, disease activity and activities of daily living in patients with RA. Methods. During a period of 3 weeks, 12 patients with RA were treated with creatine monohydrate (20 g/day for 5 days followed by 2 g/day for 16 days). They were examined on entry and at the end of the study. The patients were investigated clinically, blood and urine samples were obtained, muscle biopsies were performed before and after treatment, muscle strength was determined, and self‐administered patient questionnaires were completed. Results. From all patients we were able to obtain full clinical and questionnaire data, while biopsies were taken from 12 patients at the start and from nine patients at the end of the study. Muscle strength, as determined by the muscle strength index, increased in eight of 12 patients. In contrast, physical functional ability and disease activity did not change significantly. The creatine concentration in serum and skeletal muscle increased significantly, while creatine phosphate and total creatine did not increase in skeletal muscle. The skeletal muscle creatine content was associated with muscle strength at baseline but not after administration of creatine. The changes in muscle strength were not associated with the changes in skeletal muscle creatine or creatine phosphate. Conclusion. Although the skeletal muscle creatine content and muscle strength increased with creatine administration in some patients with RA, a clear clinical benefit could not be demonstrated for this treatment when the patients were considered as one group

42. Left ventricular systolic function in aortic stenosis

Abstract

In aortic valve stenosis, concentric hypertrophy develops which is characterized by a reduced end-diastolic radius-to-wall thickness ratio (r/h) with an essentially normal cavity shape. As long as the product of (r/h) and LV systolic pressure remains constant, hypertrophy is appropriate. An increase in the product, which represents an increase in wall stress signals inadequate LV hypertrophy. Although at first glance, massive LV hypertrophy appears favourable for the maintenance of a normal LV ejection fraction in aortic stenosis, data from 23 studies of the literature have shown an inverse relationship between ejection fraction and LV angiographic mass m−2 (r=−0·59). Both a degree of hypertrophy inadequate to keep systolic wall stress within normal limits and a reduction of LV contractility may explain the depression of ejection fraction when LV angiographic mass is sizeably increased. Conversely, a normal ejection fraction in aortic stenosis may not be indicative of normal systolic myocardial function under all circumstances. In the presence of mildly reduced contractility, a normal ejection fraction may be maintained by the use of preload reserve. Assessment of myocardial structure from LV endomyocardial biopsies revealed no differences in muscle fibre diameter, interstitial fibrosis and volume fraction of myofibrils between patients with aortic stenosis having a normal and those with a depressed ejection fraction. Preoperative ejection fraction is a poor predictor of postoperative survival, whereas markedly increased preoperative angiographic mass and end-systolic volume have been reported to predict an unsatisfactory postoperative outcome characterized by either death or poor LV function

Abstract

Eccentric ergometry: increases in locomotor muscle size and strength at low training intensities. Am J Physiol Regulatory Integrative Comp Physiol 278: R1282-R1288, 2000.--Lengthening (eccentric) muscle contractions are characterized by several unusual properties that may result in unique skeletal muscle adaptations. In particular, high forces are produced with very little energy demand. Eccentrically trained muscles gain strength, but the specific nature of fiber size and composition is poorly known. This study assesses the structural and functional changes that occur to normal locomotor muscle after chronic eccentric ergometry at training intensities, measured as oxygen uptake, that do not influence the muscle when exercised concentrically. Male subjects trained on either eccentric or concentric cycle ergometers for 8 wk at a training intensity starting at 54% and ending at 65% of their peak heart rates. The isometric leg strength increased significantly in the eccentrically trained group by 36%, as did the cross-sectional area of the muscle fiber by 52%, but the muscle ultrastructure remained unchanged. There were no changes in either fiber size, composition, or isometric strength in the concentrically trained group. The responses of muscle to eccentric training appear to be similar to resistance training. oxygen consumption; strength training
