We conducted a randomised single-blind crossover experiment to assess the cardiorespiratory and immune response to physical activity following PS.<\/p>\n<p>Design: Data were obtained from 17 (eight women) non-smoking adults during and following 30 minutes of moderate cycling administered at baseline and at 0 hour, 1 hour and 3 hours following a 1-hour PS exposure set at bar\/restaurant PS levels.<\/p>\n<p>Results: We found that PS was associated with a 36% and 38.7% decrease in mean power output in men and women, respectively, and that this effect persisted up to 3 hours (p&lt;0.05). Moreover, at 0 hour almost all cardiorespiratory and immune variables measured were markedly reduced (p&lt;0.05). For instance, FEV(1) values at 0 hour dropped by 10.2% in men and 10.8% in women, while IL-5 increased by 59.2% in men and 44% in women, respectively (p&lt;0.05). At 3-hour mean values of respiratory quotient, mean power, perceived exertion, cotinine, FEV(1), IL-5, IL-6 and INFgamma in both sexes, recovery diastolic and mean arterial pressure, IL-4 and TNFalpha in men, as well as percentage predicted FEV(1) in women remained different compared to baseline (p&lt;0.05). Also, some of the PS effects were exacerbated in less fit individuals.<\/p>\n<p>Conclusion: It is concluded that 1 hour of PS at bar\/restaurant levels adversely affects the response to moderate physical activity in healthy non-smokers for at least 3 hours following PS.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Full Text Link: <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/20478865\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/20478865\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-8302 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.famelab.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Line.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1316\" height=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Flouris AD, Metsios GS, Jamurtas AZ, Koutedakis Y.
