Summary: This study introduces a highly accurate method for estimating human energy expenditure during exercise using wearable sensors and machine learning. The proposed estimation shows a correlation up to 0.976 with ground truth values, highlighting its potential for widespread use in fitness, healthcare, and sports performance monitoring.

Summary: This study aimed to compare the differences in maximum exercise capacity in post-PCI patients measured by CPET and TET, and analyze the factors influencing the differences. The results showed that the maximum exercise capacity measured by TET was significantly higher than that measured by CPET, and it was negatively correlated with waist-hip ratio.

Summary: The study found that aerobic exercise may improve peak and submaximal cardiopulmonary function in individuals with PD. Factors such as lower age, higher exercise cadence, and lower baseline VO(2)peak were most predictive of improved VO(2)peak in the exercise cohort. The improvements in aerobic capacity were observed after a relatively short aerobic cycling intervention.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the effects of 12 weeks of sprint interval training (SIT) combined with need-support on post-exercise food consumption. The results showed that SIT with psychological need-support significantly decreased post-exercise energy intake from snacks, while traditional moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT) did not affect food intake. SIT with need-support is well-tolerated in physically inactive individuals with overweight and offers an alternative to traditional exercise prescription.

Summary: This systematic review found that the EPOC of high-intensity interval exercise and sprint interval exercise is significantly higher than moderate-intensity continuous exercise, with long-duration evaluation showing higher EPOC for high-intensity interval exercise compared to moderate-intensity continuous exercise. However, more standardized methodologies are needed to determine the effective EPOC time.

Summary: The study found that as the incline of the treadmill increased, lower-limb muscle activity and cardiopulmonary metabolic energy cost also increased, with changes in SOL, VM, GCM, and RA muscle activity having a significant relationship with the increase in cardiopulmonary metabolic energy cost.

Summary: Cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) is significantly related to morbidity and mortality in patients with obesity. This study shows that age and BMI are independent determinants of CRF in obese patients.

Summary: This study found that 12 weeks of treadmill training in old male mice improved endothelial function, physical performance, and overall body composition, but had limited impact on skeletal muscle remodeling at baseline or in response to recovery following disuse atrophy.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the energetic responses of water immersion at different temperatures during post-exercise recovery and its consequences on subsequent anaerobic performance. The results showed that water immersion, regardless of temperature, enhanced aerobic energy recovery, but only hot water immersion had a positive effect on subsequent anaerobic performance, while cold water immersion had a negative effect.

Summary: Patients with chronic heart failure may safely spend time at altitudes <3500 m, but may experience decreased exercise capacity proportional to the severity of heart failure and altitude. Specialized 'hypoxic-tailored treatment' is necessary to avoid pharmacological interference with altitude adaptation mechanisms.

Summary: This research explores different purging strategies to minimize water age and water use in premise plumbing systems. The study finds that higher purging frequency and volume result in lower water ages but higher water use. Smart purging based on the time of last use can effectively reduce water age without excessive water consumption. By scheduling purging around occupancy behavior, such as before occupants wake up or return from work, water age can be minimized while maintaining lower variability. Larger purging volumes have a greater impact on water age, but there are diminishing returns.

Summary: This prospective observational study divided participants into two groups based on age, younger and older. The results showed that the older group had significantly lower peak oxygen consumption compared to the younger group, but there were no significant differences in peak exercise cardiac output and cardiac index between the two age groups. Despite having a lower peak heart rate, older participants demonstrated higher stroke volume and stroke volume index compared to the younger group.

Summary: Patients with single ventricle heart disease after Fontan palliation are prone to cardiovascular deterioration. A peak oxygen consumption less than 50% of predicted is an independent predictor of Fontan-related morbidity and mortality. The recovery of oxygen consumption after exercise (VO2RD) has not been extensively studied in youth with Fontan physiology.

Summary: This study aimed to determine whether exercise at moderate intensity would significantly increase plasma cardiac troponin concentrations in healthy athletes. The results showed that 60 minutes of high-intensity training led to a significant increase in plasma cardiac troponins, while moderate- and low-intensity training did not cause significant changes.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the integrated changes that occur in the metabolome, cardiac autonomic modulation, and cardiorespiratory fitness throughout aging in apparently healthy individuals. The results suggest significant changes in the metabolome, cardiac autonomic modulation, and cardiorespiratory fitness after the age of sixty as a consequence of aging impairments, but with some changes in the metabolic profile that may be favorable to mitigate the aging deleterious effects.
