Combined resistance and endurance training at a moderate-to-high intensity improves physical condition and quality of life in liver transplant patien…
2017
Background: Although currently, moderate and high intensity concurrent physical exercise is prescribed in populations with special needs due to its greater effect on physical condition and health-related quality of life (HRQOL), there are no data in the liver transplantation (LT) setting. Aim: To evaluate changes in maximal strength, aerobic capacity, body composition, liver function, and HRQOL in LT patients after a moderate to high intensity combined resistance-endurance training. Material and methods: 6 months after LT, 54 patients were randomized into two groups: intervention group (IG) and control group (CG). 50 patients completed the study with repeat testing at 6 and 12 months after …
Is Physical Exercise Harmful to Liver Transplantation Recipients? Review of Literature
2015
Liver transplantation is a treatment that significantly improves the patients' quality of life. However, we should be more ambitious and seek an improvement in their fitness through training protocols allowing them to fully return to daily activities. English and Spanish-language articles on PubMed and the Cochrane Library were searched untill 2014. Articles were reviewed by 2 of the authors to determine if they were suitable for inclusion. It is shown a compilation of studies that included patients who have participated in aerobic, strength, or both combined training programs, without implying a risk for the graft function. There is a lack of studies with high scientific evidence that stab…
¿Es perjudicial el ejercicio físico para el trasplantado de hígado? Revisión de la literatura
2016
Resumen El trasplante hepatico es un tratamiento que ha permitido mejorar de manera significativa la calidad de vida de los pacientes. Sin embargo, se debe ser mas ambiciosos y buscar una mejora de su condicion fisica a traves de protocolos de entrenamiento que permitan una reincorporacion total a las actividades de la vida diaria. Se buscaron articulos en los idiomas espanol e ingles, en las bases de datos PubMed y Cochrane, hasta el ano 2014. Todos los articulos fueron revisados por 2 autores para determinar si eran apropiados para su inclusion. Se muestra una recopilacion de estudios donde se consiguen mejoras en el estado fisico de pacientes que han participado en programas de entrenami…
Muscle activation during push-ups performed under stable and unstable conditions
2015
Background/Objective: The purpose of this study was to analyze muscle activation when performing push-ups under different stability conditions. Methods: Physically fit young male university students (N = 30) performed five push-ups under stable conditions (on the floor) and using four unstable devices (wobble board, stability disc, fitness dome, and the TRX Suspension Trainer). The push-up speed was controlled using a metronome, and the testing order was randomized. The average amplitudes of the electromyographic (EMG) root mean square of the anterior deltoid (DELT), serratus anterior (SERRA), lumbar multifidus (LUMB), and rectus femoris (FEM) were recorded. The electromyographic signals we…
Shoulder muscle activation during stable and suspended push-ups at different heights in healthy subjects.
2015
Abstract Objectives To analyze shoulder muscle activation when performing push-ups under different stability conditions and heights. Study design Comparative study by repeated measures. Setting Valencia University laboratory. Participants 29 healthy males participated. Main outcome measures Subjects performed 3 push-ups each with their hands at 2 different heights (10 vs. 65 cm) under stable conditions and using a suspension device. Push-up speed was controlled and the testing order was randomized. The average amplitudes of the electromyographic root mean square of the long head of the triceps brachii (TRICEP), upper trapezius (TRAPS), anterior deltoid (DELT) and clavicular pectoralis (PEC)…
Clinical Relevance of a Balance Training Program on Liver Transplant Patients. A Randomized Controlled Trial
2019
Background. Although some studies have reported significant improvements in physical function and strength after training programs on liver transplant (LT) recipients, there is a lack of knowledge on how it affects in static and dynamic balance, being an important part of these participants' tasks development. The aim of the study was to determine the effects of a 6-month multicomponent circuit training program on static and dynamic balance in LT participants. Methods. Fifty-four participants were randomized at 6 months after LT into 2 groups: exercise (EXER) group and control (CONTROL) group, with repeat testing at 6 (baseline) and 12 months after LT. The intervention consisted of a multic…
