ABSTRACT
{L-End}Objective To analyze the local muscle response under continuous ergonomic workload by simulating manual lifting, and to screen the sensitive metabolic biomarkers during fatigue process. {L-End}Methods A total of 13 healthy male volunteers were selected as the study subjects using simple random sampling method. Study subjects underwent repetitive simulated manual lifting for four periods (T1 to T4), each lasting 12 minutes. The degree of work-related fatigue in the forearm, upper arm, shoulder, back, and leg muscles, and the whole body was accessed using Borg 6-20 Rating of Perceived Exertion (RPE) Scale. The venous blood samples were collected from elbow between each two periods to detect the levels of eight metabolic biomarkers ammonia, lactate, creatine kinase, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), C-terminal telopeptide of type Ⅰ collagen (CTX-Ⅰ), C-terminal telopeptide of type Ⅱ collagen (CTX-Ⅱ), cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP), and calcium ions. {L-End}Results The RPE scores of the study subjects for the muscles of five body parts and the whole body increased with the increasing lifting periods (all P<0.01). Fatigue was observed in all target muscles, with overall body fatigue occurring in the T2 period. The levels of ammonia, lactate, creatine kinase, LDH, COMP, and calcium ions in the serum of study subjects were higher in the T1 to T4 periods than in the T0 period (all P<0.05). The serum CTX-Ⅰ level was higher in the T1 and T3 periods than that in the T0 period (all P<0.05) , and the serum CTX-Ⅱ level was higher in the T1, T2 and T4 periods than that in the T0 period (all P<0.05). The level of these eight serum metabolic biomarkers fluctuated during the T1 to T4 periods. The serum creatine kinase level increased with the period of lifting (all P<0.05). The serum lactate level was higher in the T3 period than those in the T1 and T2 periods (all P<0.05). The serum LDH and calcium ion levels were higher in the T2 to T4 periods than that in the T1 period (all P<0.05). The serum COMP level was higher in the T2 and T3 periods than that in the T1 period (all P<0.05). Except for CTX-Ⅰ, the levels of other seven metabolic markers in serum were higher in individuals after fatigue than before fatigue (all P<0.05). {L-End}Conclusion Serum metabolic biomarkers such as ammonia, lactate, creatine kinase, calcium ions, LDH, CTX-Ⅱ, and COMP exhibit significant changes before and after fatigue. These metabolic biomarkers could be used as sensitive biomarkers for evaluating muscle fatigue during repetitive works.
