Influence of maxillary mouthguards on physiological parameters

Article Abstract:

A study was conducted to test the influence of two types of maxillary mouthguards (a self-adapted (SA) and a custom-made model (CM)) on various physiological parameters generally associated with performance in team sports. Wearing a maxillary mouthguard does not affect the main physiological parameters generally associated with team sport performance, which provide additional support to the policy of encouraging athletes to wear individually fitted maxillary mouthguards.

Enhanced acidotic myocardial Ca(super 2+) responsiveness with training in hypertension

Article Abstract:

A study investigates how hypertension-induced compensated hypertrophy, both alone and coupled with exercise training, affects left ventricular (LV) Ca(super 2+) responsiveness during acidosis. Results suggest that myocardial tolerance to acidosis is improved during the adaptive phase of compensatory hypertrophy, and that exercise training in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) induced a myocardial phenotype that preserved Ca(super 2+) responsiveness during acidosis.
