Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is a method used to estimate body composition, and it relies mainly on the body’s water content. Insufficient body water can introduce bias to body composition scores. Purpose: To determine the effect of body weight loss elicited by passive dehydration on body composition scores, including phase angle (PhA). M...

Introduction: Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is one of the mostwidely used methods to estimate body composition and phase angle (PhA). PhA is considered a marker of cellular health, analyzing the quality of the plasma membrane through resistance and reactance. The aim of this study is to determine whether weight loss due to passive dehydrat...

The 2-minutes walking test (2-MWT) is a valid and reliable test that has a high correlation with the distance walked in the 6-minutes walking test (6-MWT). However, to date, no study has determined the relationship between 2-MWT performance and the aerobic fitness indices obtained during a maximal incremental test to confirm if this test is a valid...

Introduction Eccentric exercise has often been reported to result in muscle damage, limiting the muscle potential to produce force. However, understanding whether these adverse consequences extend to a broader, functional level is of apparently less concern. In this study, we address this issue by investigating the acute and delayed effects of supr...

Introduction: Eccentric-overload (EO) resistance training emerges as an alternative to more optimally prescribe intensity relative to the force generation capabilities of the eccentric muscle contraction. Given the difficulties to individually prescribe absolute eccentric loads relative to each person’s eccentric ability, setting the load relative...

Aging-associated inflammation is characterized by senescent cell-mediated secretion of high levels of inflammatory mediators, such as microRNA (miR)-146a. Moreover, a rise of circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) is also related to systemic inflammation and frailty in the elderly. Exosomemediated cell-to-cell communication is fundamental in cellular se...

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a dynamic and multifunctional organelle responsible for protein biosynthesis, folding, assembly and modifications. Loss of protein folding regulation, which leads to unfolded or misfolded proteins accumulation inside the ER lumen, drives ER stress (ERS) and unfolded protein response (UPR) activation. During aging,...
