Adapted Physical Activity for Elderly People and National Policies. A Comparative Investigation

open access: yesSocial Policy &Administration, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The global demographic transition presents challenges and opportunities for Western societies, affecting biological, psychological, and social aspects. Ageing is linked to a decline in physical abilities, worsened by sedentary lifestyles, which reduce autonomy and quality of life. Public policies must promote “active ageing,” with APA as a key

Locomotor muscle dysfunction and rehabilitative exercise training in fibrotic interstitial lung disease: Where are we at and where could we go?

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Exercise limitation is a cardinal feature of fibrotic interstitial lung disease arising from pulmonary gas exchange, respiratory mechanical and cardio‐circulatory abnormalities. More recently, it has been recognized that impairment in locomotor muscle function (e.g., reduced muscle mass/strength or heightened fatigability) might also play a ...

Exercise training to preserve vitality capacity in ageing

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Ageing is an escalating global health issue, with the World Health Organization (WHO) reporting that one in six individuals will be 60 years or older by the year 2030. Therefore, understanding the mechanisms of complex biological ageing processes and associated healthcare challenges has become increasingly important.

Impact of obesity and an obesogenic environment on cardiotoxin‐induced damage and recovery of human myotubes

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Obesity (BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2) reduces skeletal muscle quality and impairs the myogenic response to muscle damage. The present study investigated if differences exist in myotubes from individuals with (OB) or without (LN) obesity incubated in control (bovine serum albumin [BSA]) or obesogenic (Ob) medium, at baseline or in response to cardiotoxin ...

Microgravity‐induced changes in skeletal muscle and possible countermeasures: What we can learn from bed rest and human space studies

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite exercise countermeasures to sustain health and performance in spaceflight, complete maintenance of muscle mass and functions in microgravity is still not possible for most astronauts. The principal cause of the limited effectiveness of existing exercise countermeasures is the difficulty in achieving full loading forces in space.
