Brief exertional tasks combined with heart rate variability (HRV) measurements can help detect autonomic nervous system dysfunction after mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), which affects recovery and readiness to resume full activity. Monitoring HRV during these tasks may guide safer return-to-duty decisions by revealing lingering autonomic impairments that are not always apparent through symptom reports Read more…

Older women face significant challenges to regular sport and exercise participation due to caregiving responsibilities, time constraints, and physical changes like menopause that affect performance and motivation. These barriers are compounded by societal expectations and lack of supportive policies, highlighting the need for inclusive sport environments that consider age- and gender-related socio-cultural and institutional factors. Read more…

Polyphenols, natural compounds found in plant-based foods, together with regular exercise, can enhance autophagy—a cellular process that removes damaged components and supports healthy cell function. This synergy helps suppress tumor growth, improves metabolic health, and promotes longevity by optimizing key molecular pathways involved in cancer prevention and overall cellular maintenance. Incorporating polyphenol-rich foods like berries, Read more…

Suprahigh-intensity interval training (SupraHIIT), involving very intense but brief exercise bouts, is feasible and well tolerated by people with COPD, allowing them to exercise at intensities much higher than traditional moderate training without excessive breathlessness. This approach may improve cardiopulmonary function, muscle strength, and exercise capacity more effectively than moderate continuous training, potentially reducing COPD Read more…

In people with COPD, short-duration supramaximal high-intensity interval training (SupraHIIT) is more feasible and allows for significantly higher exercise intensities than moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT). This form of training also increases levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (pBDNF) and other beneficial exercise-related molecules, suggesting potential benefits beyond lung function, such as improved overall health and physical Read more…
