Effects of unaccustomed and accustomed exercise on the immune response in runners

Article Abstract:

The hypothesis that long-term immunological response might be different after accustomed concentric and unaccustomed eccentric exercise in endurance-trained men was tested. Results showed that accustomed concentric exercise mainly induced an acute-phase response, with increased C-reactive protein, interleukin-6, and activation of [CD4.sup.+] lymphocyte subsets, suggesting that immunological reaction depends not only on the type of contraction but also on the adaptation to the exercise.

Autonomic recovery from peak arm exercise in fit and unfit individuals with paraplegia

Article Abstract:

The differences in cardiac autonomic control in fit and unfit subjects with paraplegia with emphasis on recovery from acute bout of peak arm cycle ergometry are documented. The data shows that fit individuals with paraplegia have improved cardiac autonomic control during post exercise recovery period as compared to their unfit counterparts.
