“…25 In fact, higher inflammation levels were reported in inactive/ unfit SLE patients compared to active/fit patients. 26 Whether the underlying inflammatory state (reflected by alterations in sVCAM-1 levels) is associated with derangements in brain oxygenation during exercise or with depression severity in SLE patients, to our knowledge, has not been investigated. Understanding the putative link between inflammation and an inability for cortical activation during a physical task is important for developing potential interventions to maintain functional independence and prevent disability in SLE patients with depression.…”

“…72 Yet, a cross-sectional study has demonstrated that both CRP and arterial stiffness are improved in SLE patients with greater cardiovascular health. 36 To date, although there is no study to comment specifically on cardiovascular mortality as it relates to physical fitness or aerobic capacity in SLE, a systematic review corroborates that exercise may improve a number of physical and mental factors in SLE, including physical fitness. 62…”

“…35 Another cross-sectional study divided SLE patients into groups based on cardiovascular health, and showed that ideal cardiovascular health was associated with decreased CRP and arterial stiffness. 36 Regardless of limited data, regular exercise in SLE has been associated with decreased concentrations of pro-inflammatory markers, IL-12, CRP, and TNF-a when compared to sedentary peers 37 (Table 1).…”
