Cumulative evidence has shown that sedentary behavior (i.e., excessive time spent while in a sitting or reclining posture) is a strong and independent factor predisposing to poor health-related outcomes and all-cause mortality in several populations. In this context, new interventions focused on reducing sedentary time could be of great therapeutic relevance. To date, however, studies ass…
Carnosine is a cytoplasmic dipeptide found in high concentrations in the skeletal muscle of both vertebrates and non-vertebrates, and is associated with muscle buffering, sensitivity of calcium release channels and/or calcium sensitivity of the contractile apparatus and scavenging of reactive oxygen species. It has been shown that the elevation of muscle carnosine concentrations through t…
The polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a hormonal disorder characterized by chronic hyperandrogenic anovulation with reproductive, aesthetic, metabolic, and oncologic consequences, affecting approximately 5-10% of women during reproductive age. The hyperinsulinemia and the insulin resistance are features often seen in PCOS patients, irrespective of body mass, although such conditions are…

The emergence of electronic smoking devices is a recent and scientifically underexplored phenomenon. These devices were initially thought of as a harm-reduction strategy in cigarette smokers, a purpose for which there is still no definitive evidence of effectiveness. Preliminary but consistent findings in the literature suggest the possibility of detrimental health effects to e-cigarette …
Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), a disease caused by SARS-CoV-2, has shown low infection rates in the pediatric population. Children and adolescents with COVID-19 may have persistent inflammation, with isolated or concomitant lesions on various organs. Although we do not know the prolonged effects of this condition on the organism, it is assumed that COVID-19 prospectively affects the…
The baroreflex control plays a role to main adequate cerebral perfusion pressure gradient, buffering large oscillations in blood pressure. The brain, in this turn, has intrinsic mechanisms of cerebral blood flow regulation (cerebral autoregulation) and coupling with brain activity (neurovascular coupling). Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) may have reduced baroreflex sensitivity (BR…
A growing body of evidence demonstrates that sedentary behavior (i.e., excessive time spent sitting or lying down) is an independent risk factor that predisposes to worse health indicators and higher all-cause mortality in diverse populations. In this context, new interventions focused on reducing sedentary time could be of great therapeutic relevance. To date, however, few studies have i…

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), a disease caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), has shown low infection rates in the pediatric population. However, children and adolescents with COVID-19 may have persistent inflammation, with isolated or concomitant lesions on various organs. The multisystemic inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) temporarily…
Patients with systemic lupus erythematosus spend most of their daily hours in sedentary behavior and tend to be physically inactive. Sedentary behavior and physical inactivity are independent risk factors for poor health outcomes and mortality in general and clinical populations. In addition, food patterns are a determining factor of an individual's health. Due to the lack of studies on t…
Systemic lupus erythematosus patients have a lower health-related quality of life when compared to the general population and also to other rheumatic and severe chronic diseases. Disease activity, pain, fatigue, treatment, comorbidities, demographic, social and emotional factors are predictors of a lower life quality in these patients. In theory, interventions to promote physical activity…
