Abstract. Vasoreactivity is the most basic and direct indicator to reflect the artery vascular functional state in the body. The majority of previous studies have shown that a high-fat diet (HD) is often associated with a variety of cardiovascular diseases. However, the type of exercise that improves vasoreactivity, as is induced by a HD, remains to be elucidated. In the present study, the effects of aerobic moderate-intensity intermittent exercise through swimming were investigated on thoracic aorta vascular ring contraction and free radical metabolism using Sprague-Dawley rat models of common diet (CD; 23 g protein, 49 g carbohydrate, 4 g fat, 5 g fiber, 7 g bone meal and 6 g vitamins per 100 g), HD (peanuts, milk chocolate and sweet biscuits, in a weight ratio of 3:2:2:1), CD with intermittent exercise (CIE) and HD with intermittent exercise (HIE). The food utilization rate in the swimming group (CIE) decreased in comparison with the CD group. Lee's index in the CIE group decreased in comparison to that of CD after 8 weeks (P<0.05) and also HIE decreased compared to HD (P<0.05) after 8 weeks. Compared with the HD group, contractile response of the thoracic aortic rings to NA decreased in the HIE group, while high-density lipoprotein cholesterol content increased, total cholesterol, triglycerides and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol decreased (P<0.05); the malondialdehyde (MDA) concentration reduced in the myocardium, but the superoxide dismutase (SOD) level improved (P<0.05). In the HIE group, nitric oxide level was similar to the CD group. Compared with CD, contractile response of the thoracic aortic rings to NA increased in the CIE (P<0.05), the MDA concentration reduced in the myocardium, but the SOD level improved (P<0.05). Tunica media smooth muscle of the thoracic aortic rings in the CIE group arranged more regularly in comparison with the CD group (without swimming training). In conclusion, intermittent exercise improves the thoracic aorta vasoreactivity and function by enhanced antioxidant enzyme activity and reduced free radical generating. IntroductionAs living standards improve, high-fat diet-induced obesity has become a common phenomenon (1). Obesity is often associated with a variety of diseases, such as atherosclerosis, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, diabetes and cardiovascular diseases (2-10). Vasoreactivity is the most basic and direct indicator of reflecting artery vascular function state, which has become an important indicator of cardiovascular disease (11). Studies have found that a high-fat diet (HD) and lack of exercise training are the most important factors in the development of obesity. Therefore, exercise training can control obesity and cardiovascular disease, and it has become a research focus. However, the exercise intensity, duration and different diets will produce different effects on metabolic activity (12). Long-term aerobic exercise could markedly improve the abnormal hemorheological property and the oxidative stress in rats with hypercholesterolemia (13). Inadequate nutri...

“…Elj NE et al investigated the effect of 30 days of two different diets (high protein and high-fat diet) and exercise training on weight loss enhancement. Significant reductions in weight gain and in food intake were reported with training (21). In another study, high-fat diet/endurance exercise, high-fat diet/interval exercise, and high-fat diet/concurrent exercise reduced body weight and adiposity (17).…”

Background and Objectives: The purpose of this research was to determine effects of vitamin D supplementation during a course of endurance training on anthropometrical parameters of Wistar rats exposed to a high-fat diet. Methods: In this experimental study, 38 Wistar rats aged 5-6 weeks were assigned to five groups: 1. Control with normal diet (n=5), 2. Control with high-fat diet (n=5), 3. High-fat diet and vitamin D supplementation (n=10), 4. High-fat diet and endurance training (n=10), and 5. High-fat diet, endurance training and vitamin D supplementation (n=10). The animals were subjected to a high-fat diet (40%) for 13 weeks, followed by 12 weeks of exercise and vitamin D supplementation. Results: Weight (P=0.02), BMI (P=0.001), Lee index (P=0.01) and energy efficiency (P=0.001) differed significantly between groups 1 and 2. Feed efficiency (P=0.03) and energy efficiency (P=0.01) of groups 2, 3 and 4 were significantly different from that of the control group. Conclusion: The results of the present study indicate that endurance training and vitamin D supplementation could significantly decrease some anthropometric indices.

Physical activity has a different meaning from sport because physical activity involves carrying out daily activities.…”

Background: Overweight prevalence in Indonesia is 16.5% in late teens. Lifestyle is a risk factor for overweight teenagers, especially those who live in urban areas. Objectives: To analyze the relationship between lifestyle and eating patterns on the incidence of overweight in teenagers living in urban areas. Methods: This research was an observational study with a cross-sectional design. The population of teenagers in Jakarta aged 15 - 18 was 996, based on Ministry of Health Basic Health Research 2018 data. The sample number were 372 using the research criteria of simple random sampling. Research instruments include questionnaires, digital weight scales, and stadiometers. The statistical test used Chi Square to determine the risk factors for overweight. Results: The number of overweight teenagers was 0.12%; the majority were in their late teens (55.6%), female (52.7%), rarely consumed sweet foods (62.9%), often consumed sweet drinks (58.9%), rarely consume fatty/fried foods (61.0%), often consume vegetables and fruit (65.1%), do not drink alcohol (98.4%), moderate sport activity (41.9%), and not smoking (77.7%). Overweight risk factors are consuming sweet drinks (p=0.044; OR=1.582; CI=1.010-2.477) and education (p=0.040; OR=1.847; CI=1.059 – 3.220). Adolescents with frequent sweet drinks consumption have a 1.58 risk of being overweight compared to those who do not consume sweet drinks. Adolescents with higher education are at risk of being overweight by 1.84 compared to those with lower education. Conclusions: Risk factors for overweight Jakarta teenagers are frequent consumption of sweet drinks and advanced education.
