“…However, two recent studies [42,98] failed to confirm this effect. This discrepancy may be due to a number of factors, including differences in subject characteristics and number, the timing of the blood samples taken, and the type, and the intensity and duration of the exercise intervention.…”

“…Indeed, the duration of the intervention seems to be crucial, since the majority of studies showing improvements in the markers of inflammation included at least a 12-week exercise intervention. The two studies mentioned previously included 4 [42] and 7 [98] weeks of exercise training. It is interesting to note that levels of CRP showed a trend of decreasing following the 7-week intervention.…”

Abstract:It is well established that physically fit individuals have a reduced risk of developing CVD (cardiovascular disease) and other age-related chronic disorders. Regular exercise is an established therapeutic intervention with an enormous range of benefits. Chronic low-grade systemic inflammation may be involved in atherosclerosis, diabetes and in pathogenesis of several chronic pathological conditions; recent findings confirm that physical activity induces an increase in the systemic levels of a number of cytokines and chemokines with anti-inflammatory properties. The possibility that regular physical exercise exerts anti-inflammation activity, being the interaction between contracting muscle and the other tissues and the circulating cells mediated through signals transmitted by "myokines" produced with muscle contractions. To date the list of myokines includes IL-6, IL-8, and IL-15. During muscle contractions are also released IL1receptor antagonis and sTNF-R, molecules that contribute to provide anti-inflammatory actions.Nevertheless discrepancies, analysis of available researches seem to confirm the efficacy of regular physical training as a nonpharmacological therapy having target chronic low-grade inflammation. Given this, physical exercise could be considerate a useful weapon against local vascular and systemic inflammation in atherosclerosis. Several mechanisms explain the positive effect of chronic exercise, nevertheless, these mechanisms do not fully enlighten all pathways by which exercise can decrease inflammation and endothelial dysfunction, and hence modulate the progression of the underlying disease progress.

“…All the participants performed a maximal incremental 1-min stage cardiopulmonary cycloergometer exercise test [10] as executed in previous studies from our laboratory [11]. Following criteria were used to define maximal exercise effort during exercise testing: respiratory exchange ratio of greater than 1.10 and/or heart rate greater than 95% of maximal predicted value.…”

Objective Sustained external chest compressions during cardiocerebral resuscitation (CCR) are physically demanding. It might be hypothesized that a high cardiopulmonary exercise capacity and/or muscle strength delays the development of physical fatigue and, consequently, preserves CCR quality. We intended to assess the impact of cardiopulmonary exercise capacity and muscle strength on CCR quality.Methods Fifteen healthcare professionals (10 men and five women, mean age 34 ± 9 years) performed a 15-min hands-on CCR session on an adult training manikin. CCR compression depth (from which CCR quality was calculated) and frequency were monitored. During CCR we assessed serial blood lactate concentrations, and provided continuous heart rate monitoring. Relationships were examined between participant characteristics, peak cardiopulmonary exercise capacity, ventilatory threshold, maximal muscle strength, muscle strength endurance and CCR quality.Results Significant univariate correlations were found between 15-min CCR quality and body height (r = 0.53), ventilatory threshold (r = 0.67), peak oxygen uptake capacity (r = 0.54), peak cycling power output (r = 0.54), and maximal isometric elbow extension strength (r = 0.55) (P < 0.05). CCR quality was significantly lower in females, when compared with males (P < 0.05). Within different timeframes, CCR quality was mainly related to the ventilatory threshold up to the first 5 min (P < 0.05), whereas CCR quality was mainly related to maximal isometric elbow extension strength after 5 min (P < 0.05).Conclusion In healthcare professionals, the ventilatory threshold is significantly related to CCR quality during the first few min. Healthcare professionals who are regularly involved in CCR should therefore aim to achieve/sustain a high aerobic exercise capacity.

Importance of exercise training session duration in the rehabilitation of coronary artery disease patients

Abstract: In the early rehabilitation of CAD patients, 40-min exercise training sessions seem to be at least as effective for improving body anthropometrics, blood plasma lipid profile and exercise capacity, as compared with 60-min exercise training sessions.
