Background and Study Aim. Muscular endurance and physiological efficiency are relevant factors for middle-distance performance. While aerobic and resistance exercises improve these attributes, little is known about their...

BackgroundExercise interventions have been increasingly identified as potential non-pharmacological approaches to ameliorate cognitive and behavioural performance among children with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disor...

Abstract Background Basketball is one of the most popular sports. In basketball, the energy demand from several combinations of aerobic and anaerobic sports in which athletes need physical fitness, explosive power, agili...

ObjectiveTo develop a Health Action Process Approach (HAPA) based exercise rehabilitation program for chronic heart failure (CHF) patients and evaluate its effectiveness.MethodsA randomized controlled trial was carried o...

Abstract Exercise is clinically recommended for patients undergoing hemodialysis (HD); however, their physical activity levels remain low. Guided by the theory of planned behavior, this study developed the Exercise Behav...

Background: Spinal cord injury (SCI) often results in reduced core region function and shoulder pain among wheelchair users. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of modified dynamic neuromuscular stabilizati...

To assess the effects of a wearable-sensor-assisted multicomponent exercise program on physical fitness, cognition and quality of life in a practical setting involving frail older adults.

This study aimed to investigate the protective effects and underlying mechanisms of aerobic intermittent exercise on cognitive impairment by PM2.5 exposure.

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder with increasing prevalence into older age. Aerobic exercise (AE) is the most commonly prescribed exercise for PD, although an optimal protocol is undefined. This...

ObjectiveTo systematically evaluate the effects of exercise therapies such as aerobic exercise (CAE), Tai Chi (TC), Baduanjin (BDJ), resistance training (RE), Wuqinxi (WQX), yoga (YG), and rehabilitation training (RT) on...

ObjectiveTo evaluate the effects of Traditional Chinese Medicine Breathing-Daoyin Rehabilitation Techniques (TCM-BDRT) on lung function and exercise capacity in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.Methods...

Background and objectiveEndothelial dysfunction is a key driver of cardiovascular complications in individuals with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), with oxidative stress and inflammation playing pivotal roles in its pa...

To evaluate the effect of moderate-to-high-intensity aerobic exercise performed the day before chemotherapy session on cancer-related fatigue (CRF) and to compare active vs. sedentary behaviors over the subsequent 5 day...

ObjectiveTo systematically investigate and evaluate the effects of different exercise (TT: treadmill training; ST: sensorimotor training; NW: Nordic walking; CT: cycling training; WT: walking training; DT: dance training...

Abstract Introduction We conducted a network meta-analysis of randomized trials to assess the effect of different exercises on the renal and cardiovascular function of patients with chronic kidney disease not receiving d...

ObjectiveExcessive secretion of inflammatory biomarkers exerts adverse effects on muscle strength and function, and is associated with the development and progression of sarcopenia and frailty. For the improvement of inf...

Background This study aimed to compare the acute and residual physiological responses elicited by three different priming exercise strategies, including high-intensity priming exercise (HIPE), low-intensity priming exerc...

BackgroundExercise therapy is the first-line treatment for postpartum stress urinary incontinence (PSUI); however, the optimal regimen remains unclear.ObjectiveThis study aimed to compare the effects of different exercis...

Abstract The heart critically depends on a continuous supply of oxygen, provided by myocardial blood flow (MBF), but reliable quantification of MBF during maximal exercise is not feasible in humans. We measured MBF at re...

ABSTRACT Breast cancer treatment impairs aerobic and neuromuscular capacities, leading to a decrease in quality of life. Exercise may counteract these effects if it is individualized to patient characteristics. This stud...

Background. The human gastrointestinal tract contains a large community of microorganisms, known as the gut microbiota. Their metabolic and immunological functions influence host physiology. Disruption of this community,...

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic neuroinflammatory autoimmune characterized by inflammation-induced lesion formation after immune cell infiltration into the central nervous system. T cells play an intriguing role in...

Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) involves metabolic disturbances and endothelial dysfunction, raising cardiovascular risk. Objective: To compare the effects of 8 weeks of resistance, endurance, and combined ex...

ABSTRACT Fibrotic interstitial lung disease (FILD) is associated with dyspnoea and exercise intolerance. In other cardiorespiratory conditions, heightened carotid body (CB) chemoreflex sensitivity is associated with redu...
