Similar Hypotensive Responses To Resistance Exercise With And Without Blood Flow Restriction

Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES)Low intensity resistance exercise (RE) with blood flow restriction (BFR) has gained attention in the literature due to the beneficial effects on functional and morphological variables, similar to those observed during traditional RE without BFR, while the effects of BFR on post-exercise hypotension remain unclear. The aim of the present study was to compare the blood pressure (BP) response of trained normotensive individuals to RE with and without BFR. In this cross-over randomized trial, eight male subjects (23.8 +/- 4 years, 74 +/- 3 kg, 174 +/- 4 cm) completed two exercise protocols: traditional RE (3 x 10 repetitions at 70% one-repetition maximum [1-RM]) and low intensity RE (3 x 15 repetitions at 20% 1-RM) with BFR. Blood pressure measurements were performed after 15 min of seated rest (0), immediately after and 10 min, 20 min, 30 min, 40 min, 50 min and 60 min after the experimental sessions. Similar hypotensive effects for systolic BP (SBP) were observed for both protocols (P 0.05) and no statistically significant difference for diastolic BP (P > 0.05). These results suggest that in normotensive trained individuals, both traditional RE and RE with BFR induce hypotension for SBP, which is important to prevent cardiovascular disturbances.324289294Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES)Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES

Using whole-body vibration for countermeasure exercise

Whole-body vibration exercise has been tested as a countermeasure against deterioration of body systems in spaceflight simulation (bed rest). The first Berlin BedRest Study demonstrated that resistive vibration exercise (RVE) can reduce muscle loss, prevent muscle weakness, prevent bone loss, and ameliorate pain during post–bed rest recovery as well as prevent or reduce changes in other body systems. A limitation of this study was the inability to determine the contribution of WBV in addition to resistance exercise (RE). The second Berlin BedRest Study showed that adding WBV to RE resulted in better efficacy to prevent bone loss, whereas RE and RVE were equivocal in reducing or preventing muscle atrophy. There was some evidence of an additional effect of WBV in modulating body composition changes when added to RE. Successful countermeasure exercise with WBV is possible when performed vigorously, i.e. with large loading force, and with more than three exercise sessions per week

Advances in metal-mediated solid-phase synthesis of heterocyclic compounds

While heterocycles are a key feature frequently found in compounds with pharmaceutical or agrochemical interest, the combination between solidsupported synthesis and organometallic chemistry has demonstrated to be a helpful tool for the preparation of that class of biologically relevant structures. From the more disclosed Hüisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition, the palladium-catalyzed synthesis of indoles and the ruthenium carbene-mediated preparation of heterocycles by ring-closing metathesis (RCM), to the less developed use of gold and iron in polymer-supported chemistry, this survey offers an overview of the solid-phase application of metal-mediated chemistry to the generation of libraries of a variety of heterocyclic systems.Fil: la Venia, Agustina.
