[Study in man of the blood and urinary effects of intense muscular exercise on certain elements of protein metabolism].

The effect of heavy physical exercise of long and short duration was studied on a group of 33 sportsmen and non-sportsmen after a run on a treadmill. Blood samples were taken just before the exercise, just after, one hour later and the next day. Urine was collected during the 24 hours preceeding the exercise, just after, one hour after, and then until the following day. Urea, uric acid, creatinine were analysed in each sample and amount of excretion calculated. The results, show an obvious rise in protein catabolism. The increase in urea and uric acid is the consequence of increased adrenal functioning and the increase in creatinine can be explained as the consequence of an increase in its metabolism from phosphagen and creatine. A temporary impairment in renal function, resulting from hemodynamic and humoral conditions was also observed. The relative importance of these two mechanisms varies with the different subjects.
