ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the influence of military exercise on some biochemical indexes in soldiers.Methods The level of serum soluble tumor necrosis factor receptor-1(sTNFR-1)and soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1(sICAM-1)were determined with ELISA in peripheral blood of 133 servicemen who participated in the excercise before and after the military exercise.At the same time,the levels of serum gastrin and tetosterone were determined by radioimmunassay(RIA),the level of superoxide dismutase(SOD)and malonyl dialdehyde(MDA)were determined by biochemical methods.The correlation between the changes in these contents and psychological stress was studied.Results The levels of serum sTNFR-1,sICAM-1,testosterone and MDA of 133 servicemen increased after the military exercise compared with that of before the exercise(P0.05).Conclusion As a strong stress,military exercise can inhibit the immunological function and produce changes in emotional state,gastroenterological hormones,sex hormones etc.It is necessary to carry out mental and physiological training,so that the ability of servicemen to withstand the military stress can be improved.
