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…
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…
Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disease that affects the joints, causing pain, edema, physical disability and poor quality of life. In addition, RA patients are at increased risk of developing cardiovascular disease (CVD) and premature death. The most effective pharmacological treatment is the use of biological agents that inhibit the action of specific substances, suc…

More than half of the Brazilian population is overweight or obese, which configures this condition as a public health problem. Lifestyle changes are recommended as the first line of obesity treatment. However, in cases of grade III obesity, bariatric surgery is the main indication, in addition, it is an alternative treatment for some chronic conditions associated with obesity, such as typ…
Recent evidence shows that an inadequate food intake is correlated with poor cardiometabolic markers and a higher risk of developing chronic diseases. A diet that includes a low intake of fresh foods and plenty of ultra-processed foods can lead to an increased cardiometabolic risk. Patients diagnosed with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) are frequently affected by cardiometabolic comorb…
This study aims to comprehensively investigate the clinical, physiological, metabolic, and molecular effects of reducing sedentary behavior in specific clinical populations. To that end, we will perform three distinct randomized controlled trials and acute laboratorial studies involving rheumatoid arthritis, bariatric and mild cognitive impairment patients. All of these studies will be un…

Rheumatoid arthritis patients spend most of their daily hours in sedentary behavior (~10.3 hours), which refers to any waking behaviour performed while in a sitting or lying posture. Sedentary behavior 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 sedent…
Nowadays, bariatric surgery is considered one of the main treatments for obesity once drug treatment associated with lifestyle changes is ineffective in promote a significant body weight reduction. Reducing of body weight (through bariatric surgery or not) and exercise training are important treatment options for the clinical management of obesity. The rationality that the vascular enviro…
Numerous studies have shown that the parathyroid hormone (PTH) concentration of human blood increases during endurance exercise such as running and cycling, but only when exercise intensity is quite high. Several of these studies have also shown that PTH concentrations are reduced after exercise, but the mechanism that causes these changes remains unknown. In resting humans, a decrease in…
