Methods: A total of 39 cases (35 males, 4 females) were included in the study, with 23 participants aged between 52 and 65 using bicycle ergometers and a group of 16 people who performed arm ergometers opposite. After the demographic data were recorded, physical functions of all individuals participating in the study were evaluated with a 6-minute walk test, bioimpedance analysis, HDL, LDL, Triglyceride and Total cholesterol values, and psychosocial functions were evaluated with the Beck depression scale, modified borg scale and SF 36 questionnaires before and after the training. All participants were given bicycle or arm ergometer exercises for 6 weeks, 5 sessions per week, for a total of 30 sessions. Result: When the results were examined, it was observed that there was a statistically significant increase in walking distance of the people in the bicycle ergometer group compared to the arm ergometer group (p < 0.05). In addition, it was revealed that there was a statistically significant difference in the general health parameter, which is one of the sub-parameters of SF 36, in the arm ergometer group compared to the bicycle ergometer group (p Conclusion: When we look at the results of this study, it is important in terms of revealing that bicycle and arm ergometer exercises similarly improve the physical and psychosocial functions of patients who have undergone Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery. However, it has been shown that cycling exercises are much more advantageous in improving functional capacity. Summary Statement: What is already known about this topic? 1) Walking and arm exercises are good for heart diseases. What this paper adds? 2) Demonstrated that cycling and arm ergometer exercises have curative aspects for patients undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery. The implications of this paper: 3) As a result, it has展开更多

Material: 20 healthy individuals. Methods: The IOP was measured before and 2 hours after the instillation of eye drops (b-blockers) in the right eye (OD) of the individuals.. The IOP was measured again within 5 minutes after the completion of physical exercise on a bicycle ergometer (about 10 minutes of duration - till exhaustion). Results: The instillation of b-blocker eye drops in the right eye was followed by an IOP decrease after 2 hours. The IOP decreased further more after the performance of the bicycle ergometer exercise. Mean IOP before the instillation of b-blocker. right eyes: 16.25, left eyes: 16.15. Mean IOP after the instillation of b-blocker. right eyes: 12.35 (decrease ranged from 3 to 5 mm Hg), left eyes: 14.20.. The IOP lowering effect after the bicycle ergometer exercise for the right eyes ranged from 1 to 5 mmHg. Mean IOP 10.20.展开更多
