Objectives Arterial stiffness is a major cardiovascular (CV) risk and an independent strong predictor of CV morbidity and mortality. The aim of this systematic review is to evaluate the clinical or interventional studies that assessed the effectiveness of yoga on arterial stiffness in participan...

Introduction Tai Chi is an attractive exercise to improve cardiovascular health. This review aimed to synthesize articles written both in Chinese and in English to evaluate the effects of Tai Chi-based cardiac rehabilitation on aerobic endurance, psychosocial well-being and cardiovascular diseas...

Background: This review aims to summarize the evidence of Tai Chi and qigong interventions for the primary prevention of stroke, including the effects on populations with major stroke risk factors. Methods: A systematic literature search was conducted on January 16, 2017 using the PubMed, Sc...

There is an emerging body of literature relating to the effectiveness of frequent aerobic exercise as a prophylactic for age-associated dysfunction of large arteries, yet systematic evaluation and precise estimate of this effect is unknown. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of co...

Objective To evaluate and compare the effect of 3 intensive exercise therapy modalities - Resistance Training (RT), Endurance Training (ET) and Other Intensive Training Modalities (OITM) - in Parkinson's Disease (PD). Design A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trial...

In 2015, Uhrbrand et al. published the first review on Parkinson´s disease (PD) and exercise entirely based on randomized controlled trials (RCT) applying strict exercise definitions. The present review aimed to update the PD literature by assessing the effects of different intensive exercise mod...

目的：系统评价中低强度运动对血脂的影响．方法：检索近５年国内关于中低强度运动对血脂影响的文献，经过严格的筛选共纳入９篇文章进 行Meta分 析，其 中 实 验 组205人，对 照 组191人．Meta分析结果显示：中低强度的运动干预能降低血清中总胆固醇（TC）、甘油三酯（TG）和低密度脂蛋白（LDL-C）的水平，升高血清中高密度脂蛋白（HDL-C）的水平，P<0.05，差异均有统计学意义．结论：进行中低强度运动能明显改善血脂代谢水平．

The cardiovascular benefits of physical exercise are well established. The vasoreactivity that occurs during reductions in local arterial blood flow, termed low-flow-mediated constriction (L-FMC), is a measure of endothelial-dependent vasoconstrictor function. It is unclear whether aerobic fitnes...
