Fitness Levels

Subjects' physiological responses and rated reactions to a medical film and an erotic film were assessed. Later cardiovascular fitness levels were determined by subjects' physiological responses to an exercise task. The greater the increase in the subject's systolic blood pressure after exercise and the slower the recovery, the lower the fitness level. A median split on the fitness scores of males and females separately was used to determine levels of relatively low and high fitness. Subjects in low fitness had significantly greater sympathetic-arousal responses to the two films as measured in systolic blood-pressure increases and skin-temperature decreases. Subjects in the two fitness levels did not differ in ratings of their own physiological or emotional responses to the films. Reported interoception of the magnitude of physiological responses was inaccurate, especially for subjects in low fitness.

Objective: To evaluate the gender based comparison of blood pressure and heart rate in adolescent population. Study Design: Comparative Cross Sectional Study. Setting: Department of Physiology, Baqai Medical University. Period: 15 February to 15 August in 2017. Material & Methods: A total of 500 student of MBBS, BDS and DPT of Baqai medical university were enrolled in this study by non-probabilty, purposive sampling, after taking ethical approval. Blood pressure was measured by using stethoscope and mercury sphygmomanometer, which is applied to the arm. Heart rate is measured by palpating the radial artery. This collected data were analyzed by using SPSS version 22.0.This data of male and female adolescents were analyzed separately due to autonomic regulation. Results: It was observed that Gender based comparison of mean weight, mean body mass index (BMI), mean Systolic Blood Pressure, mean Diastolic Blood Pressure, and mean heart rate between males and females had statistically significant (p-value<0.05) differences. Among the categories of Diastolic Blood Pressure, only mean Normotensive blood pressure comparison in males and females showed statistically significant (p-value<0.05) difference, while Age, categories of systolic blood pressure (Normotensive, Prehypertension, Hypertension) and Diastolic blood pressure (Prehypertension, Hypertension) had showed statistically non-significant (p-value>0.05) gender difference in study participants. Conclusion: In our study results the mean BMI, mean Systolic Blood Pressure, mean Diastolic Blood Pressure, and mean heart rate had statistically significant (p-value<0.05) differences in gender.

Background of the study: There are different drainage positions for different lobes of the lungs but most studies on the effect of postural drainage and percussion on cardiovascular and cardiorespiratory are old and also inconclusive. Aims: The primary aim of this study was to determine the effect of postural drainage positions and percussion in prone lying with foot of bed raised to 45cm and right side lying with 45 degree turn on to the face on cardiovascular and cardiorespiratory parameters such as systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), heart rate (RR) and respiratory rate (RR). Method: Forty subjects (20 males and females each) participated in the study and they were randomly assigned to 4 groups with 10 participants in each group. The cardiovascular and cardiorespiratory parameters were measured at sitting (pre-positioning), mid and postpositioning after 15 minutes. The data was analysed using descriptive and inferential statistic. Results: The results showed that percussion significantly decreased the systolic blood pressure (F = 3.15; P < 0.05) while the respiratory rate was increased significantly (F= 5.40; p < 0.05) when the subjects were in prone lying position. The result also showed that the systolic blood pressure and the respiratory rate increased significantly (F=I.26; p < 0.05) and (F=7.18; p

Abstract Objectives Obesity during childhood and adolescence is a risk factor for several types of chronic disease in adulthood. Researchers have identified dietary energy density (ED, kcal/g) and sedentary behavior as risk factors for obesity during adulthood, but little is known about the relationship between diet and measured cardiovascular fitness levels. The 2012 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey National Youth Fitness Survey (NNYFS) collected data on dietary intake, physical activity and fitness levels in a nationally representative sample of US adolescents. The objective of this study was to determine the association between eating patterns, specifically dietary energy density, and physical fitness in a nationally representative sample of youth. Methods Using data from NHANES National Youth Fitness Survey, the association between dietary energy density (ED, kcal/g) and cardiovascular fitness level was evaluated. During the NNYFS, cardiovascular fitness was assessed in adolescents aged 12–15y. Dietary intake information was collected using 24-hour recall, and assessment of diet quality involved calculation of dietary energy density. Cardiovascular fitness level was categorized based on gender-age specific cut-points of estimated VO2max. All data were analyzed using SAS 9.4 survey procedures to account for the unequal sampling probability and complex survey design of the NHANES. Results We observed a significant positive association between dietary energy density and cardiovascular fitness level after controlling for age, sex, race, and household income. Children with cardiovascular fitness levels categorized as “high risk” had significantly higher dietary energy density than children in the “healthy fitness zone” (1.82 vs 1.97, P = 0.04). Conclusions These findings expand on previous work from our group indicating that dietary energy density is associated with obesity in children and that diet in early childhood corresponds with development of physical characteristics that are associated with fitness ability. Interventions that aim to lower dietary energy density in adolescence may aid in the reduction of chronic disease risk during adulthood. Funding Sources None. Supporting Tables, Images and/or Graphs

Abstract Study Objectives Recovery rates of systolic blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) after exercise have been used to assess cardiovascular fitness, and slower recovery rates are predictors of coronary heart disease and cardiac mortality. The endogenous circadian system is known to modulate BP and HR at rest and during exercise. Here, we examined whether the post-exercise recovery rates of BP and HR are also under circadian control. Methods Twelve healthy adults (mean age = 26 ± 6 (SD) years; 6 female) participated in a 240 h forced desynchrony protocol in dim light where all behaviors, including 15 min cycle exercise tests at 60% maximal HR, were uniformly distributed across the circadian cycle. Circadian phases were assigned based on the rhythm of core body temperature. For each session, HR was measured continuously, and BP every 3–5 min throughout baseline, exercise, and recovery. Recovery was quantified as the proportional return to pre-exercise baseline levels following exercise ([peak exercise-recovery]/[peak exercise-baseline) × 100%], whereby 100% represents full recovery to baseline). Results There was a significant circadian rhythm in systolic BP recovery, with fastest recovery at the circadian phase corresponding to late afternoon (equivalent to ~5 pm) and slower recovery across the early morning (~8:30 am; p = 0.029, peak-to-trough: 9.2%). There were no significant circadian variations in post-exercise recovery rates of diastolic BP or HR. Conclusions The circadian system modulates the rate of recovery of systolic BP after exercise with fastest recovery in the biological afternoon. These data could have implications for exercise prescription and interpretation of clinical tests of stress recovery.

AbstractAmong countries which have undergone a rapid socio-economic and nutrition transition over the past few decades, the Indian Ocean island of Mauritius is among those with the greatest surge in the prevalence of type 2 diabetes and CVD. The aim of the present study was to characterise the BMI and cardiovascular functions of children and adolescents of this at-risk population. Data were collected through measurements of anthropometry, resting heart rate and blood pressure in a nationally representative sample (n 2489) of children (5–10 years) and adolescents (11–18 years), and analysed according to sex and ethnic identity: South Asian Hindus and Muslims (both of Indian ancestry), Creole (of varying degrees of African ancestry) and Chinese (of mainland China ancestry). Based on standards of the WHO or International Obesity Task Force, one in six of these young individuals exhibit a high BMI-for-age. Analysis by ethnicity revealed that Creole males and females show higher BMI-for-age but also lower heart rate (P < 0·001) even after adjustment for BMI. Additionally, Chinese males and females show higher systolic blood pressure (P < 0·01), independently of BMI. None of these ethnic differences could be related to household income, diet type (vegetarian v. non-vegetarian) or to fruit consumption. This study in children and adolescents of this multi-ethnic at-risk population for CVD reveal ethnic differences in BMI-for-age as well as consistent BMI-independent ethnic differences in heart rate and systolic blood pressure. These findings underscore the need to establish the BMI–fat % relationship across the various ethnic groups and for more detailed investigations about their differences in lifestyle and dietary habits that might explain their differential cardiovascular functions prior to adulthood.
