“…In qigong practice, practitioners are usually required to take deep breaths, that is, slowly and deeply inhale, and then slowly and thoroughly exhale. [ 24 ] This deep breathing exercise helps to improve VC, strengthen the strength of Muscles of respiration, and improve the efficiency of oxygen intake. The body movements and breathing techniques in qigong practice can promote blood circulation in the lungs, which helps improve the function of the respiratory system and immunity.…”

“…It belongs to aerobic exercise and is safe and reliable. [ 24 ] The characteristics of the Baduanjin Movement are mainly reflected in several aspects, such as softness, combination of movement and stillness, combination of spirit and form, and the presence of Qi. Unlike traditional aerobic exercise or resistance exercise training, which only focuses on the body, Qigong Baduanjin aims to integrate the body and soul and achieve the coordinated development of the body, mind and soul.…”

Background and purpose: Around the world, college students physical and mental health is deteriorating. Finding practical ways to enhance college students health is crucial. One of the traditional Chinese Qigong exercises is Baduanjin, which is possibly one of the most efficient workout techniques out there. However, it is unknown how Baduanjin practice may affect college students health. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of Qigong Baduanjin on the physical and mental health of female college freshmen. Materials and methods: A total of 78 female college students were recruited and randomly divided into Baduanjin group or control group. Participants in the control group were told to keep their original habits of life and exercise. The Baduanjin exercise group received 12 weeks of Baduanjin exercise, 3 days a week and 1 hour a day. After the 12 week randomized controlled trial, the physical and mental health indexes of female students in Baduanjin group and control group were evaluated, including physical shape, physical function, physical fitness and scl-90 self-assessment scale. Results: Compared with the control group, at the end of the 12 week intervention, the weight, body mass index, diastolic blood pressure, systolic blood pressure, somatization score, obsessive-compulsive disorder score, interpersonal sensitivity score, depression score, anxiety score and phobic anxiety score of Baduanjin group decreased significantly. Compared with the control group, the vital capacity, vital capacity index, Stand test, Genchi test, Stand on 1 leg with closed eyes, standing bends and squats of the Baduanjin group have been significantly improved. Conclusion: Compared with usual activities, Qigong Baduanjin exercise has advantages in improving female college students body shape (weight and body mass index), cardiovascular and respiratory lung function, flexibility, balance ability, muscle endurance and mental health.

“…It is a traditional cultivation health method that is simple to administer and a practical intervention that can exert beneficial effects on T2DM patients (Zhou J, Li L, Deng W, et al, 2021;Zhou J, Yu Y, Cao B, et al, 2020). Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) indicate that Baduanjin exercise is promising as an alternative intervention for glucose and lipid metabolism in individuals with T2DM (Zhang B, Wang Z, Peng F, et al, 2022;Yu D D, You L Z, Huang W Q, et al, 2020;Wen J, Lin T, Cai Y, et al, 2017;Yu T T, Yu X L, Zeng L M, et al, 2014). Huang 2021 (Huang L & Ma Q., 2021) demonstrated that the third and overall formula of Baduanjin exercise enhanced the patients' body shape and metabolic index.…”

Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) refers to a metabolic disorder characterized by persistent hyperglycemia. Uncontrolled blood glucose levels over time may lead to serious complications, possibly even death. As an adjunctive treatment for T2DM, increasing numbers of clinical studies have demonstrated that Baduanjin (the Eight Section Brocades)—one of Traditional Asian exercise may effectively control fasting plasma glucose (FPG), glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), and 2h postprandial plasma glucose (P2hPG) as well as blood lipid levels of diabetic patients. However, the primary evidence demonstrating the clinical benefit of Baduanjin exercise in diabetic patients remains insufficient, especially the intervention effect on glucose and lipid metabolism is not fully understood. Objectives: The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of Baduanjin exercise on glucose and lipid metabolism in individuals with type 2 diabetes in randomized controlled trials (RCTs). Methods: Nine electronic databases were searched from the database’s inception until January 31th, 2023, without regard to language constraints (PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), Scopus, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform (WAN FANG), VIP information resource integration service platform (CQVIP) and China Biology Medicine (CBM)). Furthermore, information concerning unpublished or continuing clinical trials was searched within the National Institutes of Health clinical registry Clinical Trials, the International Clinical Trials Registry Platform, and the Chinese Clinical Trials Registry. RCTs that examined the effect of Baduanjin exercise on glucose and lipid metabolism were identified. The primary outcomes of this study were fasting plasma glucose (FPG), 2h postprandial plasma glucose (P2hPG) and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c). The literature was chosen based on inclusion and exclusion criteria, with the Baduanjin exercise serving as the primary method for the experimental group. Selection, data collection and extraction of studies were conducted separately by at least two reviewers, with disagreements resolved through discussion. The mean difference (MD) with a 95% confidence interval (CI) was employed for continuous outcomes. Analysis of data and subgroups, as well as sensitivity analysis, were performed utilizing Review Manager V.5.4.1 (RevMan V.5.4.1) and Stata/MP 17.0. Results: This meta-analysis comprised twenty-six original studies with 1,779 individuals. Glucose metabolism: As a result of the pooled analysis, it demonstrated that combination treatment resulted in a reduction in the HbA1c (MD: -0.73, 95% CI: -0.91 to -0.55, P<0.00001), FPG (MD −1.14, 95% CI −1.38 to −0.90, P<0.00001), P2hPG (MD: -1.22, 95% CI: -1.66 to -0.78, P<0.00001), Homeostasis Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) (MD: -0.59, 95% CI: -1.07 to -0.11, P＝0.02), and Fasting Insulin (FINS) (MD: -2.63, 95% CI: -3.81 to -1.45, P<0.0001). Lipid metabolism: The results revealed that Baduanjin exercise could help T2DM patients improving the level of lipid metabolism, which reduced the level of Total cholesterol (TC) (MD: -0.36, 95% CI: -0.52 to -0.21, P<0.00001), Triglycerides (TG) (MD: -0.56, 95% CI: -0.82 to -0.30, P<0.0001), Low density lipoprotein (LDL-C) (MD: -0.19, 95% CI: -0.29 to -0.10, P＝0.0001) and increased the level of High-density lipoprotein (HDL-C) (MD: 0.11, 95% CI: 0.06 to 0.16, P<0.0001). Simultaneously, the combined findings also demonstrated that the interventions were efficacious in decreasing Body Mass Index (BMI) (MD: -1.14, 95% CI: -1.90 to -0.37, P＝0.004) and Waist-Hip Ratio (WHR) (MD: -0.07, 95% CI: -0.13 to -0.01, P＝0.02). Sensitivity analyses indicated that these results were robust. Conclusions: Current low-quality evidence demonstrated that T2DM patients through Baduanjin exercise could significantly improve the level of glucose and lipid metabolism. The evidence available was insufficient to establish the effects of Baduanjin exercise on T2DM patients. Further high-quality studies are needed to explore its effects of Baduanjin exercise on T2DM patients.
