(1) Background: Cervical spinal cord injury (SCI) patients have impairment in the autonomic nervous system, reflected in the cardiovascular adaption level during the performance of upper limb (UL) activities carried out in the rehabilitation process. This adaption level could be measured from the heart rate (HR) by means of wearable technologies. T...
RESUMEN
Introducción: A pesar de los beneficios del ejercicio físico (EF) para pacientes con enfermedad renal crónica (ERC), el número de servicios de Nefrología que han implementado programas de EF es limitado.
Objetivos: Describir el grado de conocimiento del EF en pacientes con ERC entre los profesionales, así como el nivel de implementación y c...
There is evidence on the need to include physical exercise as a treatment for diseases. A large number of professionals are involved in this, but it is not known how physical exercise is prescribed and which professionals are involved. This research has two objectives: (a) to find out the current practices in Spain regarding the prescription of phy...
Introduction
Patients undergoing hemodialysis (HD) are characterized by a poor physical condition and a substantial sedentary profile. The implementation of physical exercise programs in the hemodialysis units is usually limited by the inherent safeness and the lack of appropriate resources.
Objectives
We aimed to evaluate the impact and safety ou...
Resumen
Introducción
Los pacientes en hemodiálisis (HD) suelen tener una condición física mermada y elevado sedentarismo. La consolidación de programas de ejercicio físico en las unidades de diálisis está limitada por barreras como la seguridad inherente a estos programas y la falta de recursos.
Objetivos
Evaluar la eficacia y seguridad en la imp...
Kidney transplant recipients are at risk of developing important adverse effects after transplantation. The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of a 10‐week supervised resistance exercise‐based intervention in kidney transplant recipients. Sixteen participants were randomized to a training (n = 8, 49.7 ± 9.6 years) or control gro...
Purpose: Exercise improves the commonly impaired physical fitness and cardiovascular health of transplant recipients. However, concerns remain about the safety of strenuous physical exercise in this population. This case report describes the physiological effects of ultra-endurance exercise in a renal transplant recipient.
Methods: Preceded by a 25...
Background and aims
Evidences on the benefits of physical exercise in kidney transplant patients (KTx) are not conclusive and concerns on safety remain. We here gather and interpret current evidence on the benefits/harms of exercise training intervention in KTx.
Methods
Systematic review of exercise training programs in KTx.
Results
A total of 24...
Solid organ transplantation is the best treatment option for patients with end-stage disease, but this situation does not come without complications. Weight gain, muscle weakness, reduced exercise tolerance and decreased aerobic capacity are present among recipients of solid organ transplantation. All this is due to prolonged bed rest, inactivity,...
We analyzed the levels of fitness, muscle structure and quality of life of adults after kidney transplant and healthy adults.
Background and objectives:
We analyzed the levels of fitness, muscle structure and quality of life of adults after kidney transplant and healthy adults.
Patients and methods:
A total of 16 kidney transplant patients and 21 healthy controls performed several fitness test, isokinetic evaluation of knee flexion and extension and ultrasonography mus...
This study aimed to examine the effects of different specific warm-up protocols including static stretching (SS) and whole body vibrations (WBV) on kinematics and number of repetitions during a bench press set to failure in physically active male and female subjects. A secondary purpose was to analyze the role of sex on the warm-up induced effects....
Introduction: Physical activity has been shown very helpful in chronic renal patients (CKD) because it improves the subject's physical fitness and therefore their quality of life. To improve the quality of life in patients with substitute renal treatment, dialysated or transplanted, they should be included in physical activity programmes carefully...

This study aimed to investigate the effects of combining elastic bands to free weight (EB+FWR) on the acceleration-deceleration and velocity profiles of the bench press in professional rugby players and recreationally-trained subjects. Sixteen male subjects (8 rugby players and 8 recreationally-trained subjects) were randomly assigned to complete 2...
Purpose:
To determine the association of the ACTN3 R577X polymorphism with leg-muscle explosive power in Spanish (white) elite basketball players and controls.
Participants:
100 (60 men) elite basketball players (cases) and 283 nonathletic controls.
Methods:
The authors assessed power performance by means of the vertical-squat and countermovem...
Introduction/Aims: Karate is a sport with a high requirement of explosive strength. This communication has two objectives: (1) to describe the explosive strength and the head-on kicking speed of high level karateka, and (2) to know the degree of covariation between these variables.
Method: Participants were 13 Spanish male high level karateka, Sh...
Whole-body vibration (WBV) has improved as a variety of exercises, so it is necessary know muscles responses to the vibration stimulus.The aim of this work was to study and to compare the change in muscle activation in the lumbar area and lower body between the whole-body vibration exercise and classic strength exercises in isometric squat.23 subje...
The consequences related to the accumulation of abdominal fat above healthy levels create a considerable organic damage. Among the physiological consequences we can highlight heart diseases, hypertension, type-2 diabetes, obesity and metabolic syndrome, which drastically reduce life expectancy and quality. Evidence shows that health improvement is...
