Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine the acute immune response (circulating levels of leukocytes, cytokines and adipocytokines) to maximal resistance (MAX, 15 × 1RM) and hypertrophic resistance (HYP, 5 × 10RM) exercise bouts. Twelve healthy men (age = 28.2 ± 3.5 years, weight = 78.6 ± 10.4 kg, height 178.8 ± 5.0 cm, fat percentage = 16.5 ± 3.5 %) participated in the study. Blood was sampled before, immediately after and 15 and 30 min after exercise. Leukocytes (WBC) significantly increased immediately after HYP (p < 0.01), whereas in MAX, increases in WBC became significant after 30 min (p < 0.05). Lymphocytes increased only after HYP (p < 0.001), while MAX induced lymphopenia during recovery (p < 0.01). Monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) decreased (p < 0.05) and interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra) increased after HYP, which were not observed after MAX. Adipsin and resistin decreased after both exercise bouts (p < 0.05), which suggest that heavy resistance exercise is at least transiently beneficial for adipocytokine profile. Immediate mechanical stress seemed similar as no differences in myoglobin response were observed. The higher magnitude of metabolic demand reflected in higher lactate response in HYP could be the reason for the significantly high responses in WBC, IL-1ra and decrease in MCP-1.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 6. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 10 November 2016.
All research outputs
#6,237,961
of 25,373,627 outputs
Outputs from European Journal of Applied Physiology
#1,567
of 4,345 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#55,990
of 247,497 outputs
Outputs of similar age from European Journal of Applied Physiology
#25
of 50 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,373,627 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 75th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 4,345 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 14.6. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 63% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 247,497 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 77% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 50 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 50% of its contemporaries.
