Heat Illness in Football: Current Concepts.
Abstract
Despite growing health and safety concerns, American football remains a vastly popular sport in the United States. Unfortunately, even with increased efforts in promoting education and hydration, the incidence of death from exertional heat stroke continues to rise. General risk factors such as hydration status, obesity, fitness level, and football-specific risk factors such as timing of training camp and equipment all contribute to the development of heat illness. At the professional level, changes have been made to effectively reduce mortality from heat stroke with no deaths since August 2001. However, t...

Impact of physical activity during pregnancy on obstetric outcomes in obese women.
CONCLUSION: Maternal physical activity during pregnancy appears to improve obstetric outcomes in obese women, and this improvement may be more pronounced among multiparous women. Our finding is of particular importance as pregnant obese women are at higher risk for adverse and delivery outcomes.

Effects of a recreational-based physical activity summer camp on body composition, metabolic syndrome and physical fitness in obese children: a pilot study.
This study sought to examine the effects of a recreational-based physical activity summer camp (SC) on body composition, metabolic syndrome, and physical fitness in obese children. Forty-eight children (8-10 years; body mass index ≥ 85th percentile) completed 4-weeks of a structured recreational-based physical activity program SC (5 hours/day, 5 days/week). Over the 4-weeks, significant reductions (p<0.05) in weight, waist circumference, body mass index, percentage of body fat, and systolic and diastolic blood pressure were observed. Additionally, a significant increase was observed in HDL-cholesterol, handgrip, trunk...

Physical fitness of secondary school adolescents in relation to the body weight and the body composition. Classification according to WHO (part I); classification according to BIA (part II).
CONCLUSION: Statistically significant differences between the boys and girls were determined in all five Zuchora's tests. The highest scores in physical fitness were achieved by the boys and girls with weight deficiency.

Bariatric surgery versus non-surgical treatment for obesity.
Abstract
STUDY QUESTION: What are the summary effects of bariatric surgery compared with non-surgical treatment for obesity on body weight loss, comorbidities, adverse events, and quality of life?
SUMMARY ANSWER: Bariatric surgery is more effective in inducing body weight loss and remission of type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome after a maximal follow-up of 2 years, no cardiovascular events or deaths were reported after bariatric surgery, and the most common adverse events after bariatric surgery were iron deficiency anaemia and reoperations.

Effects of 6-week Nordic walking training on changes in 25(OH)D blood concentration in women after 55 years of age.
CONCLUSION: A six-week Nordic walking training programme in late autumn contributed to the lowering of 25(OH)D blood concentration in women after 55 years of age. The decreased 25(OH)D concentration may have been a result of reduced dermal biosynthesis of vitamin D or due to vitamin D contribution to muscle metabolism. This is an indication that vitamin D3 supplementation should be recommended in periods of intense physical activity during months with little insolation, especially to overweight postmenopausal women.

Peak fat oxidation during self-paced activities of daily life - influence of sex and body composition.
CONCLUSIONS: When physical activity aims to maximizing fat oxidation, women should exercise at higher relative intensities than men, regardless of being normal weight or overweight. Self-paced walking is a suitable activity for overweight subjects to achieve high rates of both total energy expenditure and fat oxidation.

Associations among sedentary and active behaviours, body fat and appetite dysregulation: investigating the myth of physical inactivity and obesity.
CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrated clear associations among objective measures of PA (and sedentary behaviour), energy expenditure, adiposity and appetite control. The data indicate strong links between physical inactivity and obesity. This relationship is likely to be bidirectional.

Association between objectively measured physical activity, chronic stress and leukocyte telomere length.
CONCLUSION: Habitual PA of different intensity was not directly associated with markers of chronic stress and leukocyte telomere length in this biethnic cohort. However, our findings suggest that light intensity PA could contribute to lowered age-related disease risk and healthy ageing by facilitating maintenance of a normal waist circumference.

High-intensity interval training (swimming) significantly improves the adverse metabolism and comorbidities in diet-induced obese mice.
CONCLUSIONS: HIIT leads to attenuate the adverse effects caused by a chronic ingestion of a high-fat diet.

Cardiovascular risk factors adaptation to concurrent training in overweight sedentary middle-aged men.
CONCLUSIONS: Eight-weeks of concurrent exercise training reduce both circulating concentrations of sICAM-1 and markers of CVD risk in sedentary middle-age men. The mechanistic role by which sICAM-1 may improve CVD risk with training remains to be determined.

Effect of exercise training on liver function in adults who are overweight or exhibit fatty liver disease: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
CONCLUSIONS: Exercise training reduces intrahepatic fat and FFAs while increasing cardiorespiratory fitness. An aggregate exercise programme energy expenditure (>10 000 kcal) may be required to promote reductions in intrahepatic fat.
