Comparison of dietary energy density between active women with and without exercise-associated menstrual dysfunction (ExMD)

Creator:: Hand, Taryn M.
Abstract:: Research shows that Exercise-Associated Menstrual Dysfunction (ExMD) ranges from 6-79% of active women, depending on the sport. The primary contributor to ExMD is hypothesized to be low energy availability or relative energy deficiency in sport, due to insufficient energy intake to match exercise energy expenditure. Because many active women are...

Active women with and without menstrual disorders : comparison of resting metabolic rate and energy availability

Creator:: Guebels, Charlotte P.
Abstract:: The prevalence of exercise-induced menstrual dysfunction (ExMD) ranges between 6-79% in endurance-trained women and may result from a low energy availability (EA; kcal/kgFFM/d). EA is the energy remaining after planned exercise, which is available for basic physiological processes and daily living activities. One mechanism for energy conservation may be a...

Reversing menstrual dysfunction (REMEDY) : the impact of menstrual status on musculoskeletal and hormonal health

Creator:: Kam, Lynn Cialdella
Abstract:: Menstrual dysfunction (MD), possibly due to lower energy availability (EA), is prevalent in active women and associated with unfavorable heath consequences. PURPOSE: To determine if EA improvements in endurance-trained women, using a daily Carbohydrate-Protein supplement (CHO-PRO), will restore menstrual function and improve musculoskeletal health. METHODS: Athletes with MD (ExMD; n=8;...

Reduced intraabdominal fat after lower-dose treadmill training in growing female rats

Creator:: David, Lynne Catherine
Abstract:: The presence of an increased accumulation of intraabdominal fat (IAF) has been linked to dyslipidemia, hyperinsulinemia, and hyperglycemia, which precede the development of type 2 diabetes and coronary artery disease (CAD). It has been shown that IAF begins depostition during childhood. Human studies suggest that regular endurance exercise, that does...

An Electrophysiological Study of Attention Capture: Does Rarity Enable Capture?

Creator:: Noesen, Birken
Abstract:: Several behavioral studies have suggested that rarity is critical for enabling irrelevant, salient objects to capture attention. We tested this hypothesis using the event-related potential (ERP) component, N2pc, thought to reflect attentional allocation. A cue display was followed by a target display in which participants identified the letter in a...

The physiological effect of posture on cycling

Creator:: al-Haboubi, Muhammad
Abstract:: The objective of this research was to investigate the physiological effects of body posture on cycling. The familiar positions of bicycle riding have been the touring posture (hands stretched on top handlebar) and the racing posture (hands bent at the elbow, with the back horizontal). However, a relatively new stance...

The effect of a near-maximal effort one-hour run on preferred and optimal stride rate and vertical stiffness

Creator:: Hunter, Iain
Abstract:: Experienced runners naturally optimize stride rate in a manner that minimizes oxygen uptake at given running speeds. However, as runners become fatigued, preferred stride rate often decreases. Whether such changes with fatigue occur in parallel with changes in optimal stride rate is unknown. This study's focus was on determining whether...

The effects of a 7-month high impact jumping intervention on bone mass in pre-pubescent boys and girls

Creator:: Fuchs, Robyn K.
Abstract:: High impact loading activities such as jumping, performed during childhood is advocated as one preventive method for increasing peak bone mass. Thus, we conducted a randomized intervention to examine the effect of high impact loading on bone mass in 34 pre-pubescent boys and girl over a seven month period. Participants...

Plasma B-6 vitamer changes following a 50-km ultramarathon

Creator:: Leonard, Scott W.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to measure plasma B-6 vitamers, and other factors which may affect the plasma concentrations of these vitamers under extreme physical conditions. Blood samples were drawn from 8 men and 3 women (43.7 ± 8.6 years) 30 minutes prior to the start of a 50-km...

Exercise, nutrition, and homocysteine

Creator:: Joubert, Lanae Marie
Abstract:: Exercise increases B-vitamin (B6, B12, folate) dependent metabolic reactions, especially those related to energy production and the rebuilding and repairing of muscle tissue. These same B-vitamins are also important in maintaining low blood levels of homocysteine (Hcy), a cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factor. Hcy levels rise when the metabolism of...
