The tachycardia, apparently evoked by the emotional and physical strain associated with the actual jump, approached rather extreme levels (up to 170 beats/min) immediately after landing. The enhancement in the heart rate was effectively prevented by a gentle beta-blockade. The most common unwanted effect recorded was numbness in the legs after climbing up to the tower platform, reported 9 times out of 18 possible occasions after oxprenolol but never after placebo. The fact that three of the jumpers (out of 9) performed worse when on oxprenolol makes the toxic/benefit ratio (1:2) unacceptably high for the medication.","PeriodicalId":18528,"journal":{"name":"Medicine and science in sports","volume":"88 1","pages":"266-9"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1979-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76250853","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The metal headform yielded consistently higher results than the humanoid headform but the differences between the two were much greater during impacts at the back site. Also, correlation between humanoid and metal headforms was significantly higher for top impacts than for rear impacts. These discrepancies between top and rear impacts were attributed to difficulties in the neck mounting system with the humanoid headform which causes inordinate bending during impacts. The soft impact surface yielded lower responses than the hard surface for both headforms, correlations between soft and hard surfaces were high in all cases. A small change in impact velocity (4.5 to 5 m/sec) resulted in a substantially higher output response.

All subjects were exercised to 80% of predicted maximum heart rate for 15 minutes on a bicycle ergometer. FEV1 was measured before and after exercise to determine the degree of bronchoconstriction due to exercise. Five urine specimens were collected by voluntary voiding at 20 minute intervals (one specimen before exercise and four after exercise). Before exercise, the asthmatic subjects excreted less cyclic GMP (p less than 0.05) but the same cyclic AMP as the normal subjects. Creatinine excretion in nine asthmatic subjects decreased by 24% (p less than 0.01) during exercise. In sixteen normal subjects (post-exercise bronchoconstriction less than 10%) cyclic AMP excretion increased by 19% (p less than 0.05) within 20 minutes after exercise, while cyclic GMP excretion did not change significantly. In thirteen asthmatic subjects (post-exercise bronchoconstriction greater than 20%) cyclic AMP excretion did not change significantly, while cyclic GMP excretion increased by 23% (p less than 0.05) within 20 minutes after exercise. This study has shown that exercise affects the excretion of cyclic AMP, cyclic GMP, and creatinine in normal and asthmatic subjects.

Ten males (20 to 30 years) were observed during 40 min of continuous cycle ergometer exercise (CE, 45% of the minimum load which elicited VO2max), and during 20 bouts of intermittent exercise (IE, 1 min on/off at 2x the CE work rate). Continuous and intermittent exercises were used as these are known to result in different LA responses. Resting hGH was 1 to 2 ng/ml. After a lag period, hGH was significantly elevated by 15 min of exercise and thereafter rose continuously in both IE and CE. During IE hGH tended to be higher (12.1 +/- 1.4) than during CE (9.7 +/- 1.6 ng/ml, X +/- SEM), but the difference was not significant. In both exercise conditions free fatty acids demonstrated an initial fall and then a continuous secondary rise with higher peak values during CE (0.52 +/- .06) THAN DURING IE (0.39 +/- .05 mEq/l). Pyruvate (PY) and lactate rose initially during CE, but then declined before reaching steady levels. During IE, LA and PY increased continuously reaching values 3x greater than during CE. Alanine rose progressively during CE and IE, but was significantly higher during IE (442.2 +/- 29.3 vs. 367.9 +/- 30.9 muM). Glucose also tended to be higher during IE (4.67 +/- 0.32) than during CE (4.25 +/- 0.28 mM). Considering CE and IE either together or separately, no physiologically significant correlation was found between hGH and metabolite concentrations, rectal T, or O2 deficit.
