Filter by:In this study, our primary aim is to investigate the effects of structured core stabilization exercise program on functional capacity, body composition, muscle strength, endurance, balance, quality of life in adult obese individuals expecting bariatric surgery. Our secondary aim is to provide the individual with exercise habits and increase the level of physical activity in daily life with the exercise program planned according to the needs of the individual.
To determine the effect of intradialytic cycling exercise on fatigability, sleep disorders, arterial stiffness and endothelial function in dialysis patients
The primary goal of this project is to determine the effects of exercise on the gut microbiome in breast cancer survivors and determine how these changes may relate to psychosocial symptoms such as fatigue.
The phenomena of biological adaptation and overtraining are closely related terms, that is why in sport it is possible to identify two types of overtraining. The first of these is known as short-term overtraining, which is required as a state of peripheral fatigue induced by repeated sessions of physical activity in short periods of time that are related to mechanisms of metabolic type, is considered desirable and normal, by allowing mechanisms of adaptation to be activated depending on the nature and administration of the loads, which allow reaching higher yield quotas. The second, long-term overtraining, is characterized by a series of signs and symptoms of exhaustion and persistent fatigue that take place at the level of the central nervous system and that are produced by the imbalance between demanding physical work and recovery periods.This type of condition is also known as, general syndrome of overtraining (GSO), unexplained low performance syndrome, staleness or burnout, which is propitiated by the need to achieve maximum physical performance and the performance of physical activities in a uncontrolled that cause an interruption to the processes of biological recovery that attenuate the obtaining of the physical form wished, reason why the sportsman experiences a decrease of the physical and mental performance, manifested in a clinical picture that reflects muscular inflammation, headache, elevation sudden blood pressure, loss of functional capacity, alterations of the central nervous system (CNS), metabolic, endocrine and immune systems. The stretching is commonly used as a method of physical rehabilitation. The actual information about how the GSO can reduce or prevent in the athlete are no cleared yet, that is the way the information regarding the relationship with the GSO, the stretching, the expression of BDNF and the effects can produce in the regenerative capacity in the over-trained subjects and their compensatory mechanisms during the different cycles of physical exercise, is null, making necessary the investigation of the effects that can produce in the decrease of factors that indicate GSO.
The purpose of this research is to gather data on how exercise can help recovery of muscle mass, strength, and physical function after bedrest in older adults with pre-diabetes and type 2 diabetes.
Older people with cancer differ from younger patients due to the combined effects of aging, comorbidities and cancer treatments on their health. In acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and non-hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), chemotherapy, which is the main treatment, is associated with significant toxicity that negatively affects patients' physical capacities and quality of life, already declining with age and comorbidities. It therefore seems essential to develop and evaluate interventions that can prevent physical and psychosocial decline and its consequences in these populations. However, no studies have evaluated a physical activity (PA) program among these populations, although the absence of risk of implementing PA during intense therapeutic procedures has been confirmed. OCAPI is an interdisciplinary, prospective, interventional, feasibility study. It is intended to include 20 AML and 20 NHL patients 65 years of age or older at the time of initiation of the first chemotherapy line, with an ECOG <3, with no contraindications to PA and no history or coexistence of other primary cancer. Expected results are to demonstrate that a program offering supervised sessions in a sterile room or at home and remote support can enable patients with AML or NHL to perform their daily PA in autonomy. All these results will generate preliminary data before implementing a larger national study.
There are studies showing the superiority of HIIT protocols in patients with CAD in the literature, however there is no consensus on the use of HIIT protocols in CAD patients. In addition, in these studies, the HIIT protocols differ in severity and duration and there is no optimal HIIT protocol. Therefore, this study was planed to investigate of two different HIIT protocols and one MICT protocols, which are more commonly used in patients with CAD in the literature on exercise capacity, quality of life, body composition, physical activity level and fear of movement.
The purpose of this study is to understand the preferences and barriers surrounding exercise of both the patients and oncologists within Indiana University Simon Cancer Center. This information will establish gaps in our current care and provide important information to guide future pilot interventions.
Physical inactivity in people with cerebral palsy (CP) has been linked with increased risk of cardiometabolic disease. Exercise studies rarely include people with CP with severe walking impairments and assess the sustainability of the intervention. RaceRunning allows people severe walking impairments to independently propel themselves using a running bike, which has a breast plate for support but no pedals. This project will assess the feasibility of at trial into the effectiveness of RaceRunning to reduce cardiometabolic disease risk factors and improve functional mobility. Intervention: Weekly standardised RaceRunning sessions over 6 months led by an experienced coach. Participants Twenty-five young people with CP aged 5-21, GMFCS levels III-V. Feasibility outcomes: Acceptability of RaceRunning, adherence and fidelity of the intervention, recruitment and retention rates and adverse events. Outcome measures: Cardiometabolic disease risk factors (physical activity, sedentary time, resting heart rate and blood pressure and aerobic capacity) and functional mobility assessed at baseline, 3 and 6 months. Quality of life (EQ-5D-Y) and health service use will inform a future cost-effectiveness analysis. Aspects of feasibility and acceptability and the variability and patterns of the change in outcomes will be reported using descriptive statistics.
This is a randomized control pilot study to assess the effect of intermittent hypoxia therapy on functional capacity vs conventional care in old patients with functional impairment admitted to a Phase 2 in-hospital cardiac rehabilitation program.
