Sex differences in dynamic cerebral autoregulation responses to resistance and endurance training in humans

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Exercise maintains brain health and reduces the risk of cerebrovascular diseases, such as stroke and dementia. The benefits of different ‘modalities’ of exercise on male and female cerebral autoregulation are unclear. In this study, we compared adaptations in dynamic cerebral autoregulation (dCA) during spontaneous and forced oscillations in ...

Influence of oestradiol on exercise induced muscular damage and heart rate variability in a non‐trained healthy population

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study evaluates in non‐trained healthy women the influence of oestradiol (E2) on exercise induced muscular damage (EIMD) and performance. Thirty‐six young healthy women performed a step‐exercise until exhaustion, assessing the number of repetitions, pain perception and well‐being (questionnaires, 15 min and at 48 h post‐exercise), blood ...
