Ischemia/reperfusion (IR) injury occurs in many organs and tissues, and contributes to
morbidity and mortality worldwide. Melatonin, an endogenously produced indolamine …

Purpose: Ischemic preconditioning enhances exercise performance. We tested the
hypothesis that ischemic preconditioning would improve intermittent exercise in the form of a …

Muscle ischemia and reperfusion induced by ischemic preconditioning (IPC) can improve
performance in various activities. However, the underlying mechanisms are still poorly …

Ischemic preconditioning (IPC) is an attractive method for athletes owing to its potential to
enhance exercise performance. However, the effectiveness of the IPC intervention in the …

Ischemic preconditioning (IPC) has been suggested as a potential ergogenic aid to improve
exercise performance, although controversial findings exist. The controversies may be …

Acute limb ischemia induced by pressure cuffs before activity (ischemic preconditioning;
IPC) has been reported to improve exercise performance at maximal efforts. The purpose of …

This study compared the effects of short-duration ischemic preconditioning, a single-set high-
resistance exercise and their combination on subsequent bench press performance. Twelve …
