In a group of moderately severe asthmatic subjects, regional deposition of 3.6-microns (aerodynamic diameter) monodispersed Teflon particles labeled with 111In was studied twice. The particles were inhaled with maximally deep inhalation at 0.5 l/s. Lung retention was measured at 0, 6, 24, and 48 h by use of a profile scanner equipped with two 13 x 5-cm NaI crystals. The retentions at 24 (Ret24) and 48 h were highly correlated (r = 0.96 with a slope of the regression line close to 1). There was a poor correlation between retention at 6 h and Ret24 (r = 0.54). The Ret24 values at the two exposures were well correlated (r = 0.86). There were significant correlations between airway resistance as well as single-breath nitrogen test phase III and Ret24 (r = 0.70 and 0.67, respectively). The correlation between single-breath nitrogen test phase III and Ret24 persisted also when only subjects within a narrow interval of airway resistance were included. The study indicates that regional deposition can be studied by measurements of Ret24 in subjects with moderately severe asthma and that it is dependent on changes in both large and small airways.

Research Plan

Step aerobics is a form of practicing of aerobic fitness representing an efficient and pleasant alternative in the process of obtaining optimal physical condition. The purpose of this study is the confirm the hypothesis according to which the practiceof step aerobics routines middle-aged women has an important role in improving the quality of life. The research was carried out throughout the year 2018, on a sample of 20 female adults attending Clubul D inIaşi, who were divided into two groups: experimental and witness and it was carried out throughout three phases: phase I: selecting and studying bibliography, developing the research plan and determining the sample; phase II: applying the initial tests: Body mass index-BMIand Ruffier Test; phase III: applying the final tests, comparatively analysing the results and the progress obtained, to point out the conclusions. In order to analyse the results we used the ANOVA statistical analysis test. The resultsindicate that the independent variable that we applied does not influence the results of the IMC (p= 0,2805), but the Ruffier index presents statistically significant changes (p=˂0,0001). As a general conclusion, we want to emphasize that the sport for heath, more exactly the step-aerobic programs, improves the negative effects of some diseases, the physical deficiencies, functional or trauma to which the human body may be subjected, and thus contributing to its recovery. The beneficial effects of the step-aerobic programs can contribute in a good measure to improve the quality of life.
