Isometric exercise training for hypertension [PDF]

Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2020
This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (intervention). The objectives are as follows: We will aim to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis quantifying the effects of IRT on systolic, diastolic, mean arterial and 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure.

Isometric exercise for acute pain relief: is it relevant in tendinopathy management?

British Journal of Sports Medicine, 2019
Isometric exercise as an initial treatment and in-season pain management for tendinopathies has become the latest trend, yet clear evidence in support of this approach is lacking.

No effect of tDCS of the primary motor cortex on isometric exercise performance or perceived fatigue

European Journal of Neuroscience, 2019
Anodal transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) of the primary motor cortex has been reported to improve isometric exercise performance without changing corticospinal excitability.

High cardiovascular reactivity and muscle strength attenuate hypotensive effects of isometric handgrip training in young women: A randomized controlled trial

Clinical and Experimental Hypertension, 2020
Objective Isometric resistance training may reduce resting blood pressure (BP); however, the magnitude of this effect varies among individual subjects and few studies attempted to predict it.

The autonomic and nociceptive response to acute exercise is impaired in people with knee osteoarthritis

Neurobiology of Pain, 2023
Objectives: An acute bout of exercise typically leads to short term exercise induced hypoalgesia (EIH), but this response is more variable in many chronic pain populations, including knee osteoarthritis (OA) and fibromyalgia (FM).

Effects of fatiguing, submaximal high‐ versus low‐torque isometric exercise on motor unit recruitment and firing behavior

Physiological Reports, 2018
The purpose of this investigation was to evaluate the effects of repeated, high‐ (HT: 70% MVIC) versus low‐torque (LT: 30% MVIC) isometric exercise performed to failure on motor unit (MU) recruitment and firing behavior of the vastus lateralis.

The effect of isometric exercise on pain in individuals with plantar fasciopathy: A randomized crossover trial

Scandinavian Journal of Medicine & Science in Sports, 2018
Isometric exercise is commonly recommended for immediate pain relief in individuals suffering from lower limb tendinopathies, despite the limited evidence supporting its analgesic effect.

Randomised, cross-over trial on the effect of isotonic and isometric exercise on pain and strength in proximal hamstring tendinopathy: trial protocol

BMJ Open Sport & Exercise Medicine, 2021
Background Proximal hamstring tendinopathy (PHT) is a condition that occurs at all ages and levels of sporting participation. Presenting as localised lower buttock pain with tasks such as squatting and sitting, it can cause disability with sport, work ...

Optic nerve head and retinal blood flow regulation during isometric exercise as assessed with laser speckle flowgraphy

PLoS ONE, 2017
The aim of the present study was to investigate regulation of blood flow (BF) in the optic nerve head (ONH) and a peripapillary region (PPR) during an isometric exercise-induced increase in ocular perfusion pressure (OPP) using laser speckle flowgraphy ...
