Aerobic exercise interventions may improve sleep quality, shown by a significant mean difference of -2.51 (p = 0.03).
Subgroup analyses on insomnia severity and sleep quality index showed no significant results (p = 0.15 and p = 0.16).
IL-6 and TNF-α levels showed no significant reduction with aerobic exercise, indicating limited impact on inflammation.
Further well-controlled trials are necessary to understand the immunometabolic effects of exercise in obese populations.
