“…The anti-inflammatory cytokines studied have increased significantly (IL-10), similar to what happened in the sport of tennis (Witek et al, 2016). This is probably stimulated by muscle contraction, related as an inhibition response of TNFα (Tilg, Dinarello & Mier, 1997).…”

“…However, the most relevant in this research has been the very significant decrease in IL-7 and IL-8. This data shows the aerobic nature of padel, with efforts of moderate intensity (Pradas et al, 2014), which do not reach high enough levels to trigger a true acute inflammatory process (Krüger & Mooren, 2014), In fact, the situation is quite the opposite, since there is a protective effect derived from the rise of anti-inflammatory cytokines, which induces an organically stable metabolic response to this type of sport, allowing to maintain a greater sport performance to the players (Witek et al, 2016).…”

High intensity exercise and sports activities are closely related to a general state of inflammation that can lead to immunosuppression. This physiological response could decrease sports performance and even compromise the athlete's health. The objective of this study was to investigate the acute inflammatory response of a padel match. 15 elite players (28.2±7.9 years) participated voluntarily in the study. Different pro-inflammatory (IL-1ß, IL-2, IL-6, IL-7, IL-8, IL-12 and TNFa) and anti-inflammatory cytokines (IL-5, IL-10 and IL-13) were analyzed before and after a match. The results showed a decrease in IL-7 (p=0.007) and IL-8 (p<0.03) and increases in IL-10 (p<0.04). The results obtained suggest that the practice of high-level padel induces an anti-inflammatory response.

Changes in pro-inflammatory markers and leucine concentrations in response to Nordic Walking training combined with vitamin D supplementation in elderly women

Mechanisms underpinning age-related decreases in muscle strength and muscle mass relate to chronic inflammation. Physical activity induces an anti-inflammatory effect, but it is modulated by additional factors. We hypothesized that vitamin D, which has also anti-inflammatory activity will modify adaptation to exercise and reduce inflammation in elderly women. Twenty-seven women aged 67 ± 8 years were included and divided into groups with baseline vitamin D concentration more than 20 ng mL−1 (MVD) and less than 20 ng mL−1 (LVD). Both groups performed 1 h Nordic Walking (NW) training combined with vitamin D supplementation for 12 weeks. Serum concentrations of inflammation markers, branched amino acids, vitamin D, muscle strength and balance were assessed at the baseline and three days after intervention. The training caused the significant decrease in concentration of pro-inflammatory proteins HMGB1 (30 ± 156%; 90% CI) and IL-6 (−10 ± 66%; 90% CI) in MVD group. This effects in group MVD were moderate, indicating vitamin D as one of the modifiers of these exercise-induced changes. Rise of myokine irisin induced by exercise correlated inversely with HMGB1 and the correlation was more pronounced at the baseline as well as after training among MVD participants. Although the intervention caused the leucine level to rise, a comparison of the recorded response between groups and the adjusted effect indicated that the effect was 20% lower in the LVD group. Overall the applied training program was effective in reducing HMGB1 concentration. This drop was accompanied by the rise of myokine irisin and better uptake of leucine among women with higher baseline vitamin D.

“…Some underlying biological processes have been established. For instance, increases in pro‐inflammatory processes and increases in serum cortisol became apparent during a competitive season. In respect to longitudinal changes in salivary stress markers, there is mainly evidence for unchanged sCort throughout a competitive season in different sports .…”

“N‐of‐1”—Study: A concept of acute and chronic stress research using the example of ballroom dancing

Athletes often report on heightened stress, higher disease susceptibility, and a deterioration in mood and performance throughout periods of high training load and competitions. This paper presents a single‐case study combining different research approaches to monitor the dynamic, idiosyncratic responses to competitive stress in elite sports using the example of professional ballroom dancing. Throughout an 8‐month period (313 data points), one international‐level female dancer provided data on mood, stress, and fatigue. In parallel, she collected saliva samples for the assessment of cortisol (sCort) and alpha‐amylase (sAA). A hair strand was collected every 3 months to examine cumulative cortisol secretion. As expected, perceived stress was related to a reduction in well‐being. On a daily basis, sCort predicted lower fatigue. In addition, tournaments resulted in a 3‐fold and a 2‐fold increase in sCort and sAA, respectively, and there was a pronounced drop in hair cortisol in the aftermath of a surgery‐related break from dancing. We confirm competitive ballroom dancing to constitute a major stressor with immediate and prolonged consequences for self‐reported well‐being and biological stress markers. Single‐case studies offer much potential for the observation of complex dynamic associations. In a next step, this approach will also become relevant when evaluating the efficacy of preventive and therapeutic interventions on an individual level.
