QUESTION: Does supervised physical activity reduce cancer-related fatigue? DESIGN: Systematic review with meta-analysis of randomised trials. PARTICIPANTS: People diagnosed with any type of cancer, without restriction to a particular stage of diagnosis or treatment. INTERVENTION: Supervised physi...

Objectives To determine the effect of structured exercise on overall mobility in people after hip fracture. To explore associations between trial-level characteristics and overall mobility. Design Systematic review, meta-analysis and meta-regression. Data sources MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, the Coch...

BACKGROUND: Debate concerning aerobic exercise decreasing arterial stiffness in pre- and hypertensive individuals still exists. We sought to systematically review and quantify the effect of aerobic exercise training on arterial stiffness in pre- and hypertensive subjects. METHODS: MEDLINE, Cochra...

BACKGROUND: Restoration of walking capacity, as reflected by walking speed and walking distance, is a primary goal after stroke. Peak aerobic capacity (peak oxygen consumption [V̇o₂peak]) is suggested to be correlated with walking capacity after stroke. Although the strength of this correlation i...

Aims: To compare the effects of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) versus moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT) on functional capacity and cardiometabolic markers in individuals prediabetes and type 2 diabetes (T2D). Methods: The search was performed in PubMed (MEDLINE), EMBASE, PEDr...

We performed a meta-analysis to investigate the effects of high-intensity interval exercise (HIIE) as compared to moderate-intensity exercise (MIE) and a control condition (CON) on postprandial glucose (PPG) and insulin (PPI) responses. PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus were comprehensively sear...

Metabolic syndrome is a cluster of cardiovascular risk factors including central obesity, high blood pressure, insulin resistance and dyslipidemia. To determine the effect of high intensity interval exercise on cardiovascular risk factors in people with metabolic syndrome. Methods: we searched th...

Introduction Exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation for patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) significantly improves their outcome, although the optimal mode of exercise training remains undetermined. Previous analyses have been constrained by small sample sizes and a limited focus on clinic...

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of high intensity interval training (HIIT) versus moderate intensity continuous training (MICT) in heart failure patients with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). BACKGROUND: Despite the well-known positive effects of exercise in hear...

Background: The risk of falling and associated injuries increases with age. Therefore, the prevention of falls is a key priority in geriatrics and is particularly based on physical exercising, aiming to improve the age-related decline in motor performance, which is crucial in response to postural...
