Schluckst{\"o}rungen (Dysphagien) k{\"o}nnen in dieser Patientengruppe durch prim{\"a}re Sch{\"a}digungen des zentralen und peripheren neuronalen Netzwerkes der Schluckfunktion entstehen, aber auch bedingt durch die h{\"a}ufig l{\"a}ngere intensivmedizinische Behandlung und Beatmung. Erste klinische Befunde zeigen persistierende Dysphagien im Rahmen des Post-COVID-Syndroms („Long-COVID"), sodass die Patienten auch l{\"a}ngerfristige Maßnahmen zur Rehabilitation einer sicheren und suffizienten oralen Nahrungsaufnahme ben{\"o}tigen. Daher sollte in die Behandlung von COVID-19-Patienten ein strukturiertes erkrankungsspezifisches Monitoring in Bezug auf Dysphagiesymptome integriert werden, und atemtherapeutische Maßnahmen zur Regulation von Husteneffektivit{\"a}t und Atem-Schluck-Koordination sollten auch bei diesen Patienten essenzieller Bestandteil des Dysphagiemanagements sein. Herausforderungen ergeben sich dabei einerseits durch die erforderlichen Anpassungen etablierter Behandlungsstandards an den Infektionsschutz. Zudem m{\"u}ssen Auswahl und Durchf{\"u}hrungsintensit{\"a}t therapeutischer Maßnahmen an die Kapazit{\"a}ten und die spezifische Pathophysiologie der COVID-19- und Long-COVID-Patienten angepasst werden, um weitere funktionelle Verschlechterungen zu vermindern.}, language = {de} } @article{BriniAbderrahmanClarketal.2021, author = {Brini, Seifeddine and Abderrahman, Abderraouf Ben and Clark, Cain C.

Methods: Twenty-four professional basketball players from the first Tunisian (Tunisia) division participated in this study. The players were dichotomized by sex (males [GM = 12]; females [GF = 12]). Both groups completed a 4 weeks SSGs training program with 3 sessions per week. Psychometric (e.g., quality of sleep, fatigue, stress, and delayed onset of muscle soreness [DOMS]) and physiological parameters (e.g., heart rate frequency, blood lactate) were measured during the first week (baseline) and at the end of RIF (post-test). Results: Post hoc tests showed a significant increase in stress levels in both groups (GM [- 81.11\%; p < 0.001, d = 0.33, small]; GF [- 36,53\%; p = 0.001, d = 0.25, small]). Concerning physiological parameters, ANCOVA revealed significantly lower heart rates in favor of GM at post-test (1.70\%, d = 0.38, small, p = 0.002). Conclusions: Our results showed that SSGs training at the end of the RIF negatively impacted psychometric parameters of male and female basketball players. It can be concluded that there are sex-mediated effects of training during RIF in basketball players, and this should be considered by researchers and practitioners when programing training during RIF.}, language = {en} } @article{MartinezValdesGuzmanVenegasSilvestreetal.2016, author = {Martinez-Valdes, Eduardo Andr{\´e}s and Guzman-Venegas, R.

Fifteen men attended three laboratory sessions. Visit 1: lactate threshold, peak power output, and VO2max. Visits 2 and 3: Continuous (more fatiguing) and intermittent (less fatiguing) incremental cycling protocols [20\%, 40\%, 60\%, 80\% and 100\% of peak power output (PPO)]. During both protocols, multichannel EMG signals were recorded from vastus lateralis: muscle fiber conduction velocity (MFCV), instantaneous mean frequency (iMNF), and absolute and normalized root mean square (RMS) were analyzed. MFCV differed between protocols (P<0.001), and only increased consistently with power output during intermittent cycling. RMS parameters were similar between protocols, and increased linearly with power output. However, only normalized RMS was higher during the more fatiguing 100\% PPO stage of the continuous protocol [continuous-intermittent mean difference (95\% CI): 45.1 (8.5\% to 81.7\%)]. On the contrary, iMNF was insensitive to load changes and muscle fatigue (P=0.14). Despite similar power outputs, continuous and intermittent cycling influenced MFCV and normalized RMS differently. Only normalized RMS was sensitive to both increases in power output (in both protocols) and muscle fatigue, and thus is the most suitable EMG parameter to monitor changes in muscle activation during cycling.}, language = {en} }
