Why the study?
Despite controversies regarding the appropriate training modality, the effects of group-based high-intensity aerobic interval training versus moderate continuous training on proinflammatory biomarkers in chronic heart failure remained to be quantified.
Does group-based high-intensity aerobic interval training improve the inflammatory status in patients with chronic heart failure compared to moderate continuous training?
Population
120 outpatients with stable CHF (NYHA II to IIIB)
Comparison
Group-based HIAIT/m-Ullevaal vs MICT
Design
Single-blind two-arm prospective randomized controlled trial
Follow-up
12 weeks
Loading...
HIAIT may be prioritized over MICT to reduce inflammation in chronic HF; extends exercise-intensity trials to inflammatory biomarkers.
Does group-based high-intensity aerobic interval training improve the inflammatory status in patients with chronic heart failure compared to moderate continuous training?
Group-based high-intensity aerobic interval training significantly reduces proinflammatory biomarkers and cellular adhesion molecules more effectively than moderate continuous training in patients with chronic heart failure.
