Changes in plasma and tissue amino acid levels in an animal model of complex fatigue.

9 Feb 2009 OBJECTIVE: Fatigue can be classified as physical or mental, depending on its cause. In physical fatigue, changes in the plasma levels of some amino acids have been reported. However, complex fatigue, which is experienced in daily life, is a ... Read more...

Mental and physical fatigue-related biochemical alterations.

30 Sep 2008 OBJECTIVE: To confirm fatigue-related biochemical alterations, we measured various parameters just before and after relaxation and fatigue-inducing mental or physical sessions. METHODS: Fifty-four healthy volunteers were randomized to perform ... Read more...

Mental fatigue-induced decrease in levels of several plasma amino acids.

9 Dec 2006 To investigate the relation between plasma amino acid levels and mental fatigue, we measured the plasma concentrations of 20 amino acids in 9 healthy volunteers before and after a fatigue-inducing mental task session for 8 hr. As fatigue-inducing ... Read more...
