 note = {We evaluated the effect of blood glucose level before transient physical exercise on an athlete’s physical condition and neutrophil functions. The changes and associations between blood glucose level immediately before training and neutrophil function at rest were investigated in female long-distance runners. Seventeen females in a university track team were divided into 2 groups by medial blood glucose levels: 9 subjects were in the high blood glucose group （HBG group） and 8 subjects in the low blood glucose group （LBG group）. Myogenic enzymes, immunoglobulines, complements and neutrophil function such as reactive oxygen species（ ROS） production capability were measured. The post-practice rate of change in ALT and C3 levels were significantly higher in the LBG group compared to the HBG group. At pre-practice, total ROS production capability was significantly lower in the HBG group compared to LBG group. Total ROS production capability increased significantly post-practice （“normal pattern”） in the HBG group, though it tended to decrease （“abnormal pattern”） in the LBG group. In conclusion, an adequate blood glucose level in athletes prior to exercise is suggested to be effective not only to supply energy to the body, but also to maintain normal immune function which is potentially suppressed during exercise., 弘前医学. 64, 2013, p.71-83},
