Aerobic Fitness and Moderate to Vigorous Physical Activity in Children and Adolescents Living with HIV

Abstract: Children and adolescents with HIV demonstrated lower aerobic fitness compared with the controls and the absence of HAART may increase peak VO impairment. Lower bouts of MVPA were also observed in HIV group despite the similar values of total MVPA of controls.

“…For the test, warm‐up was performed on the cycle ergometer for 5 minutes, in which the participant could pedal in free cadence at 15 w min −1 . After a 3‐minute interval, participants cycled at 60‐70 rpm at 15 w min −1 and after 4 minutes the power increased 5 w every 20 or 15 seconds (corresponding to 15 or 20 w min −1 ), based on the stage of sexual maturation (pre‐pubertal ≤ II or pubertal ≥ III), respectively . The end of the test was considered when reduction in the pedaling cadence was observed (<60 repetitions per minute) during five consecutive seconds, even after verbal encouragement.…”

“…Children and adolescents diagnosed with HIV + are exposed to numerous health complications due to the deleterious effects of infection and the continued use of antiretroviral therapy (TARV) . Changes in body composition, such as loss and/or body fat in certain body regions, and marked loss of muscle mass, lower aerobic capacity, and lower muscle strength, compared to non‐infected pairs, are some of the problems that may decrease the quality and life expectancy of HIV‐infected children and adolescents. In addition, childhood and adolescence are marked by major transformations in physical and morphological growth .…”

“…Aerobic capacity was assessed in three studies using the cardiopulmonary exercise test with a treadmill and treadmill cycle, in which VO 2 peak was evaluated as a result [ 6 , 12 , 28 ]. A total of 241 participants (125 HIV-infected and 116 healthy controls) were included in these three studies.…”

“…Body composition was assessed in four of the five included studies. Of these, three used the anthropometric method and only one study used the DXA method, which is the gold standard for this evaluation [ 6 , 11 , 26 , 28 ]. The studies included 382 participants (197 infected with HIV and 185 healthy controls).…”

“…Traditional risk factor control remains paramount, particularly diet [8**] and exercise [8**, 33]. Cautious use of antihypertensives may also have a place in decreasing AVD risk where essential hypertension related to metabolic syndrome is diagnosed [34].…”
