Effect of Running Exercise on Oxidative Stress Biomarkers: A Systematic Review

Background: Exercise induced health benefits are limited by the overaccumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). ROS and further oxidative stress could potentially induce muscle damage which could result in poor exercise performance. However, predicting ROS induced oxidative stress in response to endurance training has several limitations in terms of selecting biomarkers that are used to measure oxidative stress.Objective: The purpose of this study was to systematically investigate the suitable biomarkers that predict oxidative stress status among runners.Methods: According to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) statement, a search for relevant …
