Acute Effect of Resistance Exercise on Mucociliary Clearance in Active Smokers

Year: 2021

Type: article

Abstract: Background: Nasal mucociliary clearance (NMC) responds to autonomic activity through exercise. However, there is a gap in the literature on how NMC responds to resistance exercise. Objective: To evaluate the acute effects of resistance tube exercise on NMC and the autonomic nervous system in smokers. Methods: Clinical trial was performed with 18 individuals.
