CS received an individual grant from CAPES [BEX 0554/14-6].IntroductionCardiac rehabilitation (CR) is an evidence-based recommended treatment of heart failure (HF) patients. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the shutdown of CR centers was necessary to limit the infection risk among high-risk patients. The integration of a home-based CR (HBCR) program in CR units can help to improve the delivery of care and improve cardiovascular outcomes of HF patients.PurposeTo assess the effectiveness of an HBCR program in HF patients.MethodsThis is a sub­study of the EXercise InTervention in Heart Failure trial (EXIT-HF), which include forty-nine HF patients (preserved and reduced ejection fraction). The HBCR program consisted in 12-week combined exercise program (60%-80% of peak oxygen consumption (VO2 peak)), 2 training sessions per week, for a total of 24 sessions. Patients performed 4 supervised training sessions and the remaining sessions at home. All patients performed a cardiopulmonary exercise test (VO2 peak), the 6-minute-walking test (6MWT), collected blood analysis (plasma NT-proBNP), and answered the Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire.ResultsForty-two patients (86%) complete at least 80% of prescribed training sessions (age: 61.1±12; FEVE: 37.1±10.8). The HBCR program improve VO2 peak from 18.3 to 20.1ml/kg/min (+1.8 ml/kg/min; 95%IC:1.4 to 2.4; p<0.001) and the walked distance at the 6MWT from 462 to 512 meters (+49 meters; 95%IC: 38 to 60; p<0.001). In addition, overall quality of life was improved (-13 points; 95%IC:-7.8 to -18.5; p<0.001), as well physical (-6.3 points; 95%IC:-3.5 to -9; p<0.001) and emotional dimension of quality of life (-2.8points ; 95%IC: -0.9 to -4.7; p=0.06). No significant change was found in NT-proBNP levels (820±1220 vs 674±903; p=0.285).ConclusionsOur results showed that HBCR is feasible and can improve functional capacity and quality of life in HF patients.

The Effects of 12 Weeks of a Combined Exercise Program on Physical Function and Hormonal Status in Elderly Korean Women.

Aging causes a decline in physical function and hormonal balance. Exercise can improve these parameters. However, the beneficial effects of a combined exercise program (Korean dance and yoga) on physical function and hormonal status in elderly women remain unknown. This study aims to investigate the effects of a 12-week combined exercise program on balance, flexibility, muscle strength, and hormonal status in elderly Korean women. Twenty-five healthy elderly women were recruited and randomly divided into the control (CON) and exercise (EXE) groups. The EXE group underwent the combined exercise program (60 min/day and 3 times/week) for 12 weeks. The two groups did not differ in body weight, lean body mass, fat mass, body fat percentage, or body mass index at baseline or in the changes following the experimental conditions. A significant time × group interaction was detected for anterior and posterior dynamic balance, static balance, and growth hormone (GH). After the combined exercise program, anterior dynamic balance, posterior dynamic balance, static balance, flexibility, muscle strength, GH, dehydroepiandrosterone-sulfate, and estrogen significantly increased in the EXE group compared to the CON group. In conclusion, the combined exercise program contributed to improvements in overall health, including physical function and hormonal status, in elderly Korean women.

Effects of 12-week combined exercise program on self-efficacy, physical activity level, and health related physical fitness of adults with intellectual disability.

The current study examined the effects of an exercise program on health related physical fitness, self-efficacy, and physical activity levels in adults with intellectual disability. The study used pre- and posttest experimental research design with a control group. Total of 23 adults with intellectual disability were recruited with 12 assigned for the exercise group and 11 for the control group, separately. The measures of health related physical fitness included cardio pulmonary endurance (step-test), body composition (bioelectrical impedance analysis), flexibility (sit and reach), muscle endurance (sit-up), and strength (hand grip strength). Self-efficacy was measured using the physical self-efficacy scale. Accelerometers were used to measure physical activity levels. All variables were measured and evaluated twice at baseline and at the end of the program. The exercise program consisted of band exercises and rhythmic activity for 90 min, twice per week for 12 weeks. After the intervention, significant improvements were found in the experimental group in muscle endurance, self-efficacy, and physical activity levels. An exercise program may be recommended as a nonpharmaceutical method to improve the health of adults with intellectual disabilities.

12 Weeks of Combined Endurance and Resistance Training Reduces Innate Markers of Inflammation in a Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial in Patients with Multiple Sclerosis

Previously, we reported that patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) demonstrate improved muscle strength, exercise tolerance, and lean tissue mass following a combined endurance and resistance exercise program. However, the effect of exercise on the underlying disease pathogenesis remains elusive. Since recent evidence supports a crucial role of dendritic cells (DC) in the pathogenesis of MS, we investigated the effect of a 12-week combined exercise program in MS patients on the number and function of DC. We demonstrate an increased number of plasmacytoid DC (pDC) following the exercise program. These pDC display an activated phenotype, as evidenced by increased numbers of circulating CD62L+ and CD80+ pDC. Interestingly, the number of CD80+ pDC positively correlates with the presence of IL-10-producing regulatory type 1 cells (Tr1), an important cell type for maintaining peripheral tolerance to self-antigens. In addition, decreased production of the inflammatory mediators, TNF-α and MMP-9, upon Toll-like receptor (TLR) stimulation was found at the end of the exercise program. Overall, our findings suggest that the 12-week exercise program reduces the secretion of inflammatory mediators upon TLR stimulation and promotes the immunoregulatory function of circulating pDC, suggestive for a favorable impact of exercise on the underlying immunopathogenesis of MS.
