Does repeated endurance exercise affect leukocyte number but not NK cell activity?
PM exercise produced a larger increase in NKCA than AM exercise, possibly indicative of an interaction between exercise and a diurnal effect. These data suggest two bouts of endurance exercise in 1 d produce an "additive effect" for total leukocyte and neutrophil counts. and to a lesser degree lymphocyte counts, but did not appear to impact shifts in NKCA.
: Our data suggest that Japanese women who undergo menopause before age 40 years are at an increased risk of cerebral infarction. Premature menopause should be considered an indicator of the need for more aggressive medical intervention aimed at the prevention of cerebral infarction.
