Does sport characteristic effect lung functions? Comparison of Voleybol and Judo Players: A Pilot Study

Year 2017, Volume: 2 Issue: 2, 27 - 33, 30.06.2017

Abstract

Athletes develop physiological
adaptation depending on sports kind. 
Pulmonary functions are affected by these adaptations. Our purpose with
this study is compare the effect of volleyball and judo sports that has
different characteristic from each other, on pulmonary functions. Twelve
volleyball athletes who had been doing sports at least for three years with the
mean age of 15,50±1,08 and 10 judo athletes who had been doing sports at least
for three years with with the mean age of 15,10±1.37 were included to study.
Athletes’ pulmonary functions was tested with spirometry. Athletes’ forced
expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), forced vital capacity (FVC),
forced expiratory volume /forced vital capacity % (FEV1/FVC%), peak
expiratory flow (PEF), forced expiratory volume at %25 (FEV25),
forced expiratory volume at %50 (FEV50), forced expiratory volume at
%75 (FEV75) values were noted and by using SPPS statistical analyses
program, the data were compared with Mann Whitney U test. Athletes who were included to our study were same age and had same
BMI (body mass index) values (p>0,05). FEV1/FVC value of athletes were
similar (p>0,05).  It was found that the
value of FEV1 was 5,15±0,46 in volleyball player, 3,92±1,01 in
judokas; the value of  FVC was 5,99±0,61 in
volleyball player, 4,56±1,10 in judokas value; the value of PEF was 11,12±2,13 in
volleyball player, 7,79±1,86 in judokas; the value of FEV25 was 9,36±2,17 in
volleyball player, 6,38±1,64 in judokas; the value of  FEF50 was 6,25±1,28 in volleyball
player, 4,74±1,46 in judokas; the value of FEV75 was 3,15±1,27 in
volleyball player, 2.03±0,90 in judokas; the value of FEV25/75 was 5,87±1,67
in volleyball player, 4,27±1,26 in judokas. It was determined that the
differences of all values beside FEV1/FVC% between two groups reached the
significance level (p<0,05). It is determined that volleyball athletes’
pulmonary functions were higher than judo athletes. It is showed with this
study that sport characteristics influences philological changes on pulmonary
system.

Yapılan Sporun Karakteristiği Solunum Fonksiyonlarını Etkiler mi? Voleybol ve Judo Sporcularının Karşılaştırılması

Year 2017, Volume: 2 Issue: 2, 27 - 33, 30.06.2017

Abstract

Sporcular
yapılan spora bağlı olarak farklı fizyolojik adaptasyonlar geliştirirler. Solunum
fonksiyonları da bu adaptasyonlardan etkilenir. Çalışmamızın amacı karakteristiği birbirinden oldukça farklı
olan voleybol ve judo sporunun solunum fonksiyonları üzerindeki etkisini
karşılaştırmaktır. Çalışmaya ortalama yaşı 15,50±1,08 yıl olan 12 erkek voleybol sporcusu ile
ortalama yaşı 15,10±1.37 yıl olan 10 erkek judo sporcusu dahil edildi. Sporcuların
solunum fonksiyonları spirometre ile test edildi. Sporcuların forced expiratory
volume-zorlu ekspiratuar hacim (FEV), forced expiratory volume in one
second-bir saniyedeki zorlu ekspiratuar hacim (FEV1), forced vital
capasity- zorlu vital kapasite (FVC), forced ekspiratuary volume-zorlu
ekspiraturar volüm/ forced vital capasity-zorlu vital kapasite yüzdesi (FEV1/FVC%),
peak expiratory flow- tepe akım hızı (PEF), forced expiratory volume at %25-
%25’deki zorlu ekspiratuar hacim (FEV25), forced expiratory volume at %50-
%50’deki zorlu ekspiratuar hacim (FEV50), forced expiratory volume at %75-
%75’deki zorlu ekspiratuar hacim (FEV75) değerleri kaydedildi ve SPSS
istatistiksel analiz programı kullanılarak veriler karşılaştırıldı.  Sporcuların yaşları arasında anlamlı bir fark bulunamamıştır (p>0,05). Boy
ve kilo değerleri arasında anlamlı bir fark mevcut olsa da söz konusu bu fark
BKI (Beden Kitle İndeksi) için geçerli değildir (p>0,05). Spirometrik
değişkenlerden FEV1/FVC% haricindeki tüm değerler voleybol sporcularında daha
yüksek belirlenmiştir ve iki grup arasındaki değişkenler arasındaki farkın
tamamı anlamlılık düzeyine ulaşmıştır (p<0,05). Voleybol sporunda, judo sporuna kıyasla solunum
sistemi üzerine düşen yükün daha fazla olması bu sporcuların solunum fonksiyonlarının
judo sporcularından yüksek çıkmasına sebep olmuştur. Bu çalışma ile yapılan
sporun karakteristiğinin solunum sistemi üzerindeki fizyolojik değişiklilerde
etkili olduğu gösterilmiştir.
