Abstract
Systemic autoimmune myopathies (or idiopathic inflammatory myopathies) are a wide group of rare rheumatic diseases characterized by muscle weakness due to muscle inflammation. Recent evidence has continually reinforced the relevance of the perception of pain and fatigue as parameters of notable contribution to reducing the quality of life of these patients. However, due to the multidimensional characteristic of these variables, few studies address the effects of pharmacological and non-pharmacological therapies, such as exercise training on these variables. With regard to patients with systemic autoimmune myopathies, the outcomes related to the effects of exercise training are focused on muscle strength and endurance, few explore the effects on the perception of pain and fatigue. Given this, studies that review systematically the available evidence of the effects of exercise training on these perceptions can contribute to management of this parameter in clinical practice. Given this context, the present study aims to review systematically the effectiveness of exercise training specifically on the perception of pain and fatigue.
