Reference values for inspiratory muscle endurance in healthy children and adolescents
(Public Library of Science, 2017)
Aims: To generate reference values for two inspiratory muscle endurance (IME) protocols in healthy children and adolescents. Materials and methods: This is an observational, cross-sectional study, in ...
Effects of a remotely supervised resistance training program on muscle strength and body composition in adults with cystic fibrosis: randomized controlled trial
(John Wiley & Sons, 2024)
Introduction: Among the limited studies on physical exercise interventions in adults with cystic fibrosis (CF), few have specifically addressed the improvement of peripheral muscle strength and body ...
Prenatal stress induces long-lasting effects in lung glucocorticoid receptor gene expression in a sex-dependent manner
(Scientia Medica, 2019)
AIM: Stressful events during pregnancy may influence respiratory system development, resulting in long-term effects in the offspring. However, little is known on its long-lasting effects upon the ...
Mechanisms of ventilatory limitation to maximum exercise in children and adolescents with chronic airway diseases
(John Wiley & Sons, 2023)
Introduction: Exercise intolerance is common in chronic airway diseases (CAD), but its mechanisms are still poorly understood. The aim of this study was to evaluate exercise capacity and its association ...
Diagnostic performance of the physical activity-related question of the GINA questionnaire to detect exercise-induced bronchoconstriction in asthma
(Elsevier, 2021-07)
Introduction: The aim of the study was to evaluate the diagnostic performance of the item concerning physical activity of the Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA) asthma control questionnaire for detection ...
The use of ultrasonography to evaluate muscle thickness and subcutaneous fat in children and adolescents with cystic fibrosis
(Sociedade de Pediatria de São Paulo, 2018)
Objective: To compare muscle thickness and subcutaneous fat in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients and healthy controls using ultrasonography (US), and to correlate US findings with nutritional, clinical and ...
Cystic fibrosis in Brazil: achievements in survival
(Jornal Brasileiro de Pneumologia, 2021)
Effects of a short-term resistance-training program on heart rate variability in children with cystic fibrosis: a randomized controlled trial
(Frontiers Media, 2021)
Background: Cystic fibrosis (CF) affects the autonomic nervous system (ANS) and exercise in healthy children modulates the interaction between sympathetic and parasympathetic activity. This study aimed ...
Functional performance in the modified shuttle test in children and adolescents with cystic fibrosis
(Sociedade De Pediatria De Sao Paulo, 2021)
Objective: To evaluate factors associated with the performance of children and adolescents with cystic fibrosis (CF) in the Modified Shuttle Test (MST) and compare it with healthy children and adolescents. ...
Feasibility of performing the 3-minute step test with remote supervision in children and adolescents with cystic fibrosis: A comparative study
(Pediatric Investigation, 2024)
Importance: The 3-min step test is a simple option to monitor submaximal exercise capacity, although its use via remote video monitoring has not been investigated in children with cystic fibrosis (CF). ...
