Top Research Papers on Creatine

This new method for synthesis of creatine has many advantages, such as moderate reaction, easy and safe operating conditions, and the yield of creatine is 59.87%.

Recent findings on the effects of creatine supplementation on brain function closely related to mental health, which directly influences the quality of life of elderly people are introduced.

Evaluation des risques presentes par la creatine pour le consommateur, revue de la litterature and des donnees actuelles sur l'effet de the creatine sur les performances sportives and l'augmentation of the masse musculaire.

It can be concluded that creatine supplementation has several health and therapeutic benefits throughout the lifespan.

It is evident that creatine plays a critical, though underappreciated, role in brain function.

The trapping of methylglyoxal by creatine may delay the formation of advanced glycation compounds in vivo and, therefore, could be of special importance in situations in which the body has to deal with pathophysiologically increased amounts of dicarbonyl compounds ("carbonyl stress"), for instance in diabetic patients.

Creatine monohydrate is a dietary supplement that increases muscle performance in short-duration, high-intensity resistance exercises, which rely on the phosphocreatine shuttle for adenosine triphosphate. The effective dosing for creatine supplementation includes loading with 0.3 g I kg j 1 I d j 1 for 5 to 7 days, followed by maintenance dosing at 0.03 g I kg j 1 I d j 1 most commonly for 4 to 6 wk. However loading doses are not necessary to increase the intramuscular stores of creatine. Creatine monohydrate is the most studied; other forms such as creatine ethyl ester have not shown added be...

Creatine monohydrate is a dietary supplement that increases muscle performance in short-duration, high-intensity resistance exercises, which rely on the phosphocreatine shuttle for adenosine triphosphate. The effective dosing for creatine supplementation includes loading with 0.3 g·kg−1·d−1 for 5 to 7 days, followed by maintenance dosing at 0.03 g·kg−1·d−1 most commonly for 4 to 6 wk. However loading doses are not necessary to increase the intramuscular stores of creatine. Creatine monohydrate is the most studied; other forms such as creatine ethyl ester have not shown added benefits. Creatine...

During the past decade, with notable popularity this past year, creatine has assumed prominence as an ergogenic aid for professional and elite athletes, however, safety issues of long-term use have not been addressed satisfactory.

Recommendations are made on various types of creatines, including Creatine ethyl ester, Creatine pyruvate, and Creatine taurinate.

Manual and AutoAnalyzer methods for the determination of creatine in seawater are described and data are presented for creatine and nutrient excretion of Peruvian anchoveta, Engraulis ringens, and creatine found in a representative hydrostation near an anchoveTA school in the Peru Current.

Creatine increased neuronal survival in retinal cultures; however, no significant protection of RGCs was evident in vivo, despite elevated levels of this compound being present in the retina after oral supplementation.

The results indicate that creatine increases the formation of C-pentosidine but not authentic pentosidine, and indicates that creatine plays a direct role as a protein modifier in C- Pentosidine formation, although the clinical significance is still unknown.

Creating requirements and metabolic finctions creatine supplementation, theory, protocol and effects research considerations with nutritional sports ergogenic effects of creatine supplementation on the adenosine triphosphate-phosphocreatine energy system and legal and ethical issues regarding creatine supplementation.

While creatine appears to be safe and effective for particular settings, whether creatine supplementation leads to improved performance on the field of play remains unknown.

The effects of creatine oral supplementation combined with a 10-week resistive training of morphometric, contractile and molecular characteristics of human vast lateral muscle fibers were studied and a significant increase of slow and fast-twitch fiber size in both trained groups was found.

The creatine supplementation during strength training potentates an increase of force-velocity characteristics of trained muscle group without impeding aerobic capacity of the organism.

It has been dubbed as "Nature's own anabolic steroid"; freely available and "without any known side effects"; is it the ultimate panacea and sports supplement?

The results indicate that damage to mitochondria is crucial in the differentiation imbalance caused by oxidative stress and that the Cr-prevention of these injuries is invariably associated with the recovery of the normal myogenic capacity.
