- Positive effects of football on fitness, lipid profile, and insulin resistance in Brazilian patients with type 2 diabetes(2014) SOUSA, M. V. de; FUKUI, R.; KRUSTRUP, P.; PEREIRA, R. M. R.; SILVA, P. R. S.; RODRIGUES, A. C.; ANDRADE, J. L. de; HERNANDEZ, A. J.; SILVA, M. E. R. daWe evaluated the effects of recreational football training combined with calorie-restricted diet (football+diet) vs calorie-restricted diet alone (diet) on aerobic fitness, lipid profile, and insulin resistance indicators in type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients. Forty-four T2D patients aged 48-68 years (27 females, 17 males) were randomly allocated to the football+diet group (FDG; n=22) or to the diet group (DG; n=22), of whom 19 FDG and 15 DG subjects completed the study. The football training was performed for 3x40min/week for 12 weeks. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry scanning, treadmill testing, and fasting blood samplings were performed pre and post-intervention. After 12 weeks, maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) was elevated (P<0.05) by 10 +/- 4% in FDG but not in DG (-3 +/- 4%, P<0.05). After 12 weeks, reductions in blood triglycerides (0.4 +/- 0.1mmol/L), total cholesterol (0.6 +/- 0.2mmol/L), low-density lipoprotein, and very low-density lipoprotein levels were observed only in FDG. Fat mass decreased (P<0.05) by 3.4 +/- 0.4kg in FDG and 3.7 +/- 0.4kg in DG. The lower (P<0.05) glucagon and homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance indicated an improvement in insulin sensitivity in FDG. In conclusion, football combined with restricted diet was effective in enhancing VO2max, reducing total cholesterol and triglycerides, and increasing insulin sensitivity, potentially providing better tools for the prevention of T2D complications than diet alone.
- Carbohydrate beverages attenuate bone resorption markers in elite runners(2014) SOUSA, Maysa Vieira de; PEREIRA, Rosa Maria R.; FUKUI, Rosa; CAPARBO, Valeria Falco; SILVA, Maria Elizabeth Rossi daObjective. We evaluated the effects of carbohydrate (CHO) supplementation on markers of bone turnover in elite runners. Design. Twenty-four male runners were randomly assigned to two groups - a CHO and a control (CON) group - using a double-blind design. The participants were submitted to an overload training program (days 1-8), followed by a high-intensity intermittent running protocol (10 x 800 m) on day 9. They received a maltodextrin solution (CHO group) or a placebo solution as the CON equivalent, before, during, and after these protocols. Results. After 8 days of intensive training, baseline levels of osteocalcin (OC) decreased in both CHO and CON groups (before: 28.8 +/- 3.6 and 26.6 +/- 2.4 ng/ml, after: 24.8 +/- 3.0 and 21.9 +/- 1.6 ng/ml, respectively, p < 0.01). On day 9, at 80 min of the recovery period, carboxy-terminal of telopeptide type I collagen (CTX) serum concentration was suppressed in the CHO group (0.3 +/- 0.1 ng/ml) vs. 0.6 +/- 0.0 ng/ml for the CON group (p < 0.01). CHO supplementation was effective in decreasing CTX levels from baseline to recovery (0.5 +/- 0.1 ng/mL to 0.3 +/- 0.1 ng/mL, p < 0.001), while an increase from 0.4 +/- 0.0 ng/mL to 0.6 +/- 0.0 ng/mL (p < 0.001) was observed in the CON group. Conclusion. CHO beverage ingestion attenuated the exercise-induced increase in CTX concentration, suggesting that CHO supplementation is a potential strategy to prevent bone damage in athletes.
