Title: Blood pressure lowering effects of exercise

Abstract

A pressure gradient is necessary for ensuring adequate blood flow and tissue perfusion. The blood pressure (BP) is controlled on a moment-to-moment basis in order to optimise blood flow without overloading the cardiovascular system. Abnormal elevation of BP increases the cardiac workload and augments the mechanical stress on the vasculature, which increases the risk of developing cardiovascular diseases. In many cases the exact factors responsible for the increase in BP are unknown, but some risk factors have been identified, including a sedentary lifestyle. Research has revealed that following exercise there is a significant reduction in BP, especially in hypertensive subjects. Consequently, physical exercise can be utilised as a tool to help lower BP and combat cardiovascular diseases.

Title: Enhancing immune function: the importance of vitamin D

Abstract

Vitamin D is a hormone that is required for numerous physiological functions. This vitamin can be synthesised via skin exposure to ultraviolet B light, and a small amount is provided by the diet. Vitamin D receptors are expressed in various tissues and organs, and new discoveries on vitamin D physiology furnished evidence that this steroid hormone impacts on a considerably broader aspect of human health than previously known, particularly in the field of immunology. However, due to the lack of sunlight exposure and other factors, vitamin D deficiency is still a common problem, which is associated with elevated risk of developing numerous diseases, increasing morbidity, mortality and healthcare cost. Consequently, the use of supplements is vital in order to combat vitamin D deficiency, promote human health and help prevent disease.

Title: Heart rate variability analysis: a method for evaluating autonomic cardiovascular control, fitness and health

Abstract

The cardiovascular system delivers oxygen, nutrients and other important substances to all cells, tissues and organs. The heart rate (HR) is regulated on a moment-to-moment basis in order to meet the metabolic demand and maintain homeostasis. The autonomic nervous system modulates the HR by varying the impulse traffic in the sympathetic and parasympathetic nerve fibres terminating in the sinoatrial node. Heart rate variability (HRV) analysis enables to evaluate the instantaneous HR fluctuations that occur over a period of time. HRV is a correlate of cardiac autonomic regulation, and has been applied to assess cardiovascular health in different contexts, such as cardiac fitness assessment and to help predict the risk of adverse cardiac events. HRV has many advantages and can be incorporated within the diagnostics tools in cardiology.

Title: A brief history of electrotherapy

Abstract

Since ancient times, people looked into nature in search for pain and disease treatments. At that time scientific understanding was at its infancy and many therapeutic approaches were based on experience. One therapeutic approach was the use of electricity, generated by certain marine animals, to treat pain and illnesses. With the invention of electrostatic machines, the use of electricity produced by animals was gradually abandoned. The electrophysiology discovery that muscle contraction is elicited by an electrical impulse and the invention of the voltaic pile were pivotal, as numerous scientist conducted many important studies that led to new insights, and progressively electrotherapy became founded on explicatory facts. Electrotherapy is an efficacious tool utilised to treat numerous conditions, and is part of the modern medicine repertoire.

Title: The importance of water properties for all living organisms

Introduction

Water is by far the most abundant molecule in living organisms across species. In multicellular organisms, including humans, water is the major constituent of both intracellular and extracellular fluid.1 Biological functions appear to be very sensitive to water properties. For instance, even small doses of heavy water, which contains deuterium (D2O, an isotope of hydrogen with a nucleus consisting of one proton and one neutron) rather than hydrogen, can be highly toxic. This because of subtle changes in reaction rates that destabilise metabolic pathways and signal transduction. The bio-friendliness of water revolves around its properties necessary for electrophysiology, biochemistry and biophysics phenomena, which are essential for sustaining life in all its rich diversity.
