THE EFFECTS OF THREE DIFFERENT REAR KNEE ANGLES ON KINEMATICS IN THE SPRINT START

The purpose of this study was to investigate the rear knee angle range in the set position that allows sprinters to reach greater propulsion on the rear block during the sprint start. Eleven university-track team sprinters performed the sprint start using three rear knee angle conditions: 90°, 115° and 135°. A motion capture system consisting of 8 digital cameras (250 Hz) was used to record kinematic parameters at the starting block phase and the acceleration phase. The following variables were considered: horizontal velocity of the centre of mass (COM), COM height, block time, pushing time on the rear block, percentage of pushing time on the rear block, force impulse, push-off angle and length of the first two strides. The main results show that first, horizontal block velocity is significantly greater at 90° vs 115° and 135° rear knee angle (p<0.05 and p<0.001 respectively) at block clearance and the first two strides; second, during the pushing phase, the percentage of pushing time of the rear leg is significantly greater at 90° vs 135° rear knee angle (p<0.01). No significant difference was found for block time among the conditions. These results indicate that block velocity is the main kinematic parameter affected by rear knee angle during the starting block phase and acceleration phase. Furthermore, the 90° rear knee angle allows for a better push-off of the rear leg than larger angles at the set position. The findings of this study provide some direction and useful practical advice in defining an efficient rear leg biomechanical configuration at the set position.     

山蝠和黑斑蛙乳酸脱氨酶同工酶及血糖浓度的季节变化

本工作采用聚丙烯酸胺凝胶电泳等方法,对山蝠（Ｎｙｃｔｕｓｎｏｃｔｕｌａ）和黑斑蛙（Ｒａｎａｎｉｇｒｏｍａｃｕｌａｔａ）在冬眠或蛰伏期与活动期的血清、脑、骨胳肌中的乳酸脱氢酶（ｌａｃｔａｔｅｄｅｈｙｄｒｏｇｅｎａｓｅ,ＬＤＨ）同工酶和血糖浓度进行了比较研究。ＬＤＨ同工酶及血糖浓度表现出明显的季节变化。与活动期的动物相比,在冬眠或蛰伏期中的动物的ＬＤＨ１缺乏、ＬＤＨ５明显增多（Ｐ＜０．００１）,血糖浓度明显升高（Ｐ＜０．００１）。此外,ＬＤＨ同工酶和血糖浓度的季节变化在冬眠动物和蛰伏动物之间还存在着明显的差异。这些结果提示,ＬＤＨ同工酶含量和血糖浓度的季节变化不仅与动物的能量代谢水平相适应,而且显示了冬眠和蛰伏两种生理过程中的可能差异。     

ACUTE EFFECTS OF MOVEMENT VELOCITY ON BLOOD LACTATE AND GROWTH HORMONE RESPONSES AFTER ECCENTRIC BENCH PRESS EXERCISE IN RESISTANCE-TRAINED MEN

This study aimed to compare the effects of different velocities of eccentric muscle actions on acute blood lactate and serum growth hormone (GH) concentrations following free weight bench press exercises performed by resistance-trained men. Sixteen healthy men were divided into two groups: slow eccentric velocity (SEV; n = 8) and fast eccentric velocity (FEV; n = 8). Both groups performed four sets of eight eccentric repetitions at an intensity of 70% of their one repetition maximum eccentric (1RMecc) test, with 2-minute rest intervals between sets. The eccentric velocity was controlled to 3 seconds per range of motion for SEV and 0.5 seconds for the FEV group. There was a significant difference (P < 0.001) in the kinetics of blood lactate removal (at 3, 6, 9, 15, and 20 min) and higher mean values for peak blood lactate (P = 0.001) for the SEV group (9.1 ± 0.5 mM) compared to the FEV group (6.1 ± 0.4 mM). Additionally, serum GH concentrations were significantly higher (P < 0.001) at 15 minutes after bench press exercise in the SEV group (1.7 ± 0.6 ng · mL⁻¹) relative to the FEV group (0.1 ± 0.0 ng · mL⁻¹). In conclusion, the velocity of eccentric muscle action influences acute responses following bench press exercises performed by resistance-trained men using a slow velocity resulting in a greater metabolic stress and hormone response.

本文讨论了实验性缺氧对大鼠凝血机能产生的影响。实验结果表明,大鼠在模拟8000米高度两小时后,血小板凝聚性、血小板因子3活性明显增加,纤溶活性下降,同时,纤维蛋白原含量和因子X也明显下降。大鼠在模拟7000米经36天间歇性慢性缺氧,血小板计数、血小板凝聚性,血小板因子3活性、纤维蛋白原含量、因子X活性均显著增加,部分凝血活酶时间缩短、纤溶活性下降,明显地出现凝血增强的趋势。本文还讨论了抗缺氧药物复方党参、异叶青兰对人鼠急性缺氧时凝血机能的影响。     

THE EFFECT OF EXTRACELLULAR POTASSIUM CONCENTRATION ON PROTEIN SYNTHESIS IN GUINEA-PIG HIPPOCAMPAL SLICES1,2

Abstract— We have measured the effect of small variations in extracellular potassium concentrations ([K⁺]) upon the incorporation of radioactively labelled amino acid into the protein of the isolated guinea-pig hippocampal slice. The slice is super-perfused with glucose fortified buffer and maintains an ATP concentration of 33–36 nmol/mg protein and incorporates lysine into protein at a rate of 0.82 pmol/(ig protein/h. Within the range of extracellular K⁺ from 1.3 to 8.1 mil the change in the rate of lysine incorporation into protein is proportional to the logarithm of the extracellular K⁺ concentration. Incorporation increases by about 100% over this range. Measurements of the specific activity of the presumed intracellular amino acid pool indicate that the effect of changes in extracellular [K⁺] is to alter the rate of protein synthesis rather than alter the availability of radioactively labelled precursor. Altering extracellular [K⁺] does not affect tissue levels of ATP or creatine phosphate, indicating that the effect on amino acid incorporation does not result from an effect upon energy metabolism. It is suggested that this effect of extracellular [K.⁺] may be a means by which changes in cerebral electrical activity lead to changes in the rate of protein synthesis in brain.

糖皮质激素受体测定及运动对糖皮质激素受体的效应

本文报道了中国人的淋巴细胞氚标地塞米松特异结合的Kd值和Ro。Scatchart作图法分析显示Ro=6.23±2.38moles/10~6细胞,Kd=2.34±1.46nM,证明了甾体结合的特异性。研究了36名正常中国人(男18名,女18名)淋巴细胞GCR分別为3206±1515位点/细胞,36.41±1901位点/细胞(一点分析法),男女之间差别不显著。对11名手球队员(男6名,女6名,受过训练组T)和11名复旦大学学生(男5名,女6名没受过训练者NT)进行了运动实验,结果显示:力竭运动后无论是T组和NT组淋巴细胞GCR数均比运动前减少(T组从3351减少到1431位点/细胞;NT组3912减少到1588,P<0.05)。虽然,T组运动前后的差值比NF组小(差数561位点/细胞),但统计学检验相差不显著。这些结果提示:运动训练对淋巴细胞GCR的变化作用是不显著的。GCR,乳酸和GC的相关检验结果显示:GCR和乳酸存在着相关(r=-0.466 P<0.05),这些提示,在运动中乳酸可能是调节GCR的一个重要因素。     

THE EFFECT OF 40 HOURS OF CONSTANT WAKEFULNESS ON NUMBER COMPARISON PERFORMANCE

We investigated the effects of sleep loss and circadian rhythm on number comparison performance. Magnitude comparison of single-digits is robustly characterized by a distance effect: Close numbers (e.g., 5 versus 6) produce longer reaction times than numbers further apart (e.g., 2 versus 8). This distance effect is assumed to reflect the difficulty of a comparison process based on an analogous representation of general magnitude. Twelve male participants were required to stay awake for 40?h in a quasi-constant-routine protocol. Response speed and accuracy deteriorated between 00:00 and 06:00?h but recovered afterwards during the next day, indicating a circadian rhythm of elementary cognitive function (i.e., attention and speed of mental processing). The symbolic distance effect, however, did not increase during the nighttime, indicating that neither cumulative sleep loss nor the circadian clock prolongs numerical comparison processes. The present findings provide first evidence for a relative insensitivity of symbolic magnitude processing against the temporal variation in energy state.

游泳运动对大鼠血清高密度脂蛋白胆固醇水平的影响

本文观察了游泳运动对摄取高脂饲料大鼠血清高密度脂蛋白胆固醇(HDL-C)及高密度脂蛋白胆固醇/总胆固醇(HDL—C/TC)百分比值的影响。52头雄性成年大鼠分为四组:对照组(高脂饲料)、运动1组(高脂饲料 强制游泳0.5小时/天)、运动2组(高脂饲料 强制游泳2小时/天)和运动8组(高脂饲料 强制游泳4小时/天),每周游5天,连续3周。实验高脂饲料配方为:基础饲料93％,椰子油5％、胆固醇1.5％和胆盐0.5％。结果表明,高饱和脂肪和高胆固醇饲料引起血清TC升高,HDL-C和HDL-C/TC百分比值降低。游泳运动则可减轻体重,降低血清TC水平,显著地升高HDL-C和HDL-C/TC百分比值(P<0.001)。显示HDL-C的升高幅度与一定的运动时间延长有关。可见适宜的运动能改善高脂饲料所致的血脂异常。     

兔侧脑室注射八肽胆囊收缩素抗血清对血浆自由脂肪酸浓度的影响

本工作根据抗原抗体间具有高度特异性的中和作用的原理,将微量 CCK-8抗血清注射入制备有埋藏套管的慢性实验兔的侧脑室内,观察在中和脑内外源性或内源性的 CCK-8后,血浆 FFA 浓度的变化,结果如下:1.侧脑室内注射正常兔血清,对血浆 FFA 浓度无明显影响;在注射 CCK-8同时注射兔正常血清,也不影响 CCK-8降低血浆 FFA 浓度的作用。2.侧脑室内注射 CCK-8抗血清能有效地阻断外源性脑室注射 CCK-8降低血浆 FFA 的作用,此阻断作用随 CCK-8抗血清剂量的增加而增强。3.侧脑室内单独注射 CCK-8抗血清,血浆 FFA 浓度明显升高,这一作用可能是由于中和了脑内内源性 CCK-8的作用所致。以上结果表明,CCK-8脑室注射引起的血浆 FFA 降低的作用具有一定的特异性;而在正常生理情况下,脑内释放的内源性 CCK-8可能参与血浆 FFA 代谢的调节。

CHANGES IN THE ANAEROBIC THRESHOLD IN AN ANNUAL CYCLE OF SPORT TRAINING OF YOUNG SOCCER PLAYERS

The aim of the study was to assess changes in the anaerobic threshold of young soccer players in an annual training cycle. A group of highly trained 15-18 year old players of KKS Lech Poznań were tested. The tests included an annual training macrocycle, and its individual stages resulted from the time structure of the sports training. In order to assess the level of exercise capacities of the players, a field exercise test of increasing intensity was carried out on a soccer pitch. The test made it possible to determine the 4 millimolar lactate threshold (T LA 4 mmol · l^-1) on the basis of the lactate concentration in blood [LA], to establish the threshold running speed and the threshold heart rate [HR]. The threshold running speed at the level of the 4 millimolar lactate threshold was established using the two-point form of the equation of a straight line. The obtained indicators of the threshold running speed allowed for precise establishment of effort intensity used in individual training in developing aerobic endurance. In order to test the significance of differences in mean values between four dates of tests, a non-parametric Friedman ANOVA test was used. The significance of differences between consecutive dates of tests was determined using a post-hoc Friedman ANOVA test. The tests showed significant differences in values of selected indicators determined at the anaerobic threshold in various stages of an annual training cycle of young soccer players. The most beneficial changes in terms of the threshold running speed were noted on the fourth date of tests, when the participants had the highest values of 4.01 m · s^-1 for older juniors, and 3.80 m · s^-1 for younger juniors. This may be indicative of effective application of an individualized programme of training loads and of good preparation of teams for competition in terms of players’ aerobic endurance.     

缺氧对右心室最大心肌血流量的影响

为了探讨缺氧对冠状血管贮备力的影响,我们观察了缺氧时大鼠血流动力学及右心室最大心肌血流量的变化。结果表明,急性缺氧引起ＰａＯ２、心输出量及氧运送量降低,但右心室心肌血流量增加,右心室最大与安静血流量比值降低。慢性缺氧时ＰａＯ２降低,血球比积和右心室重量指数增加,氧运送量和右心室血流量正常,但最大血流量降低,小动脉增厚、外膜胶元增加。以上结果提示,慢性缺氧对冠状血管贮备减少可能是小动脉壁增厚、外膜胶元增加和血液粘滞性增加及右心室肥大的结果。
