Effect of free-living daily physical activity on salivary secretory IgA in elderly

Article Abstract:

The relationship between the free-living daily activity and mucosal immunity, especially the salivary secretory immunoglobin A (SIgA), in old people is studied by analysis of resting saliva samples of elderly volunteers. The analysis proves that a free-living daily physical activity with approximately 7000 steps per day should be set as a moderate daily physical activity to improve the mucosal immune function in elderly people.

Effects of cryotherapy after contusion using real-time intravital microscopy

Article Abstract:

A study is conducted to examine effects of local tissue cooling on contusion-induced microvascular hemodynamics and leukocytes behavior using real-time intravital microscopy. Results suggest that local tissue cooling, similar to cryotherapy, improves edema and inflammatory reaction, and might be useful for reducing inflammatory response without inhibiting blood flow after contusion.
