This study examined associations between scores of depression (DEPs), thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and catalase activity (CAT) in master athletes and untrained controls.
Participants were master sprinters (MS, = 24; 50.31 ± 6.34 year), endurance runners (ER, = 11; 51.35 ± 9.12 year), untrained middle-aged (CO, = 13; 47.21 ± 8.61 year), and young untrained (YU, = 15; 23.70 ± 4.02 year). CAT, SOD, and TBARS were measured in plasma using commercial kits. DEPs were measured by the Beck Depression Inventory-II. An ANOVA, Kruskal-Wallis, Pearson's, and Spearman's correlations were applied, with a significance level of ≤ 0.05.
The CATs of MS and YU [760.4 U·μL 1 ± 170.1 U·μL 1 and 729.9 U·μL 1 ± 186.9 U·μL 1] were higher than CO and ER. The SOD levels in the YU and ER [84.20 U·mL ± 8.52 U·mL and 78.24 U·mL ± 6.59 U·mL ( < 0.0001)] were higher than CO and MS. The TBARS in CO [11.97 nmol·L ± 2.35 nmol·L ( < 0.0001)] was higher than in YU, MS and ER. MS had lower DEPs compared to the YU [3.60 ± 3.66 vs. 12.27 ± 9.27 ( = 0.0002)]. A negative correlation was found between CAT and DEPs for master athletes [r = -0.3921 ( = 0.0240)] and a weak correlation [r = -0.3694 ( = 0.0344)] was found between DEPs and the CAT/TBARS ratio.
In conclusion, the training model of master sprinters may be an effective strategy for increasing CAT and reducing DEPs.
本研究考察了优秀运动员和未经训练的对照组之间抑郁评分（DEPs）、硫代巴比妥酸反应物质（TBARS）、超氧化物歧化酶（SOD）和过氧化氢酶活性（CAT）得分之间的关联。
参与者为优秀短跑运动员（MS，n=24；50.31±6.34 岁）、耐力跑运动员（ER，n=11；51.35±9.12 岁）、未经训练的中年组（CO，n=13；47.21±8.61 岁）和未经训练的年轻组（YU，n=15；23.70±4.02 岁）。使用商业试剂盒测量血浆中的 CAT、SOD 和 TBARS。采用贝克抑郁量表二项式评估 DEPs。采用方差分析、克鲁斯卡尔-沃利斯检验、皮尔逊相关和斯皮尔曼相关分析，显著性水平设为 ≤0.05。
MS 和 YU 的 CAT 水平[760.4U·μL-1±170.1U·μL-1 和 729.9U·μL-1±186.9U·μL-1]高于 CO 和 ER。YU 和 ER 的 SOD 水平[84.20U·mL-1±8.52U·mL-1 和 78.24U·mL-1±6.59U·mL-1（<0.0001）]高于 CO 和 MS。CO 的 TBARS 水平[11.97nmol·L-1±2.35nmol·L-1（<0.0001）]高于 YU、MS 和 ER。MS 的 DEPs 评分低于 YU[3.60±3.66 与 12.27±9.27（=0.0002）]。优秀运动员的 CAT 与 DEPs 呈负相关[r=-0.3921（=0.0240)]，而 DEPs 与 CAT/TBARS 比值呈弱相关[r=-0.3694（=0.0344)]。
综上所述，优秀短跑运动员的训练模式可能是提高 CAT 和降低 DEPs 的有效策略。
