Abstract:
AbstractThe 3-min all-out test was developed and validated on a cycle ergometer using a modification of a linear mathematical equation (1/time vs. power) obtained from the original critical power model. The purpose of this development was to obtain, in a single test, the aerobic and anaerobic capacity parameters and identify the exercise transition moment from heavy to severe intensity. The aim of this study was to propose an adaptation of the all-out 3-min cycle ergometer to a non-motorized treadmill with tethered running. In addition, we tested the reproducibility of this adapted protocol, highlighting the need for mechanical power evaluation using a specific ergometer. Consequently, 10 physically active individuals visited the laboratory 4 times for testing and data collection. The results suggested that the protocol adaptation for the 3-min all-out test for non-motorized treadmill with tethered running was reproducible and feasible. It was also possible to show that the AO3 application in this ergometer ensures the specificity of the sports that involve the running exercise, from assessment of both aerobic and anaerobic parameters, accomplished in a single day of application.

Abstract:
The International Paralympic Committee mandates the development of an evidence-based classification system, which requires a measure of performance. Performance in cross-country sit-skiing is mainly dependent on force generated during the poling phase and is enhanced by trunk flexion–extension movements. Since all sit-skiers have neuromuscular impairment, but different ability to control the trunk, this study aimed to verify if simulated action of poling on an adapted ergometer, together with a cluster analysis, could be used for grouping participants with different impairments according to their performance. On the ergometer, eight male and five female participants performed seven poling cycles at maximal speed, while sitting on personal sit-ski. Based on maximal speed, generated force, cycle characteristics, and trunk kinematics, cluster analysis divided participants into three groups showing good accuracy, sensitivity, and precision. Although a validation of this exploratory study is necessary, skiing on the ergometer could be considered as sport-specific measure of performance and may become an interesting tool in the development of an evidence-based classification system for cross-country sit-skiing.

Abstract:
Background: The objective is to analyse and compare the effects of an adapted tennis cardiac rehabilitation programme and a classical bicycle ergometer-based programme on the type of motivation towards sports practice and quality of life in patients classified as low risk after suffering acute coronary syndrome. Methods: The Behavioural Regulation in Exercise Questionnaire (BREQ-2) and Velasco’s Qualityof Life Test were applied. The sample comprised 110 individuals (age = 55.05 ± 9.27) divided into two experimental groups (tennis and bicycle ergometer) and a control group. Results: The intra-group analysis showed a significant increase between pre- and post-test results in intrinsic regulation in the tennis group and in the control group. In identified regulation, the bicycle ergometer group presented significant differences from the control group. On the other hand, in the external regulation variable, only the tennis group showed significant differences, which decreased. Significant improvements in all quality-of-life factors when comparing the pre-test period with the post-test period were only found in the experimental groups. As per the inter-group analysis, significant differences were observed in favour of the tennis group with respect to the control group in the variables of health, social relations and leisure, and work time as well as in favour of the bicycle ergometer group compared with the control group in the variables of health, sleep and rest, future projects and mobility. No significant differences were found in any of the variables between the tennis group and the bicycle ergometer group. Conclusion: It is relevant to enhance the practice of physical exercise in infarcted patients classified as low risk as it improves the forms of more self-determined regulation towards sporting practice and their quality of life.

Abstract:
Objective: The aim of this study was to verify the influence of 6 weeks of whole-body vibration training on the pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines (IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, IFN-ɣ e TNF-α) in young, eutrophic and sedentary women. Methods: Twenty-six participants were randomly divided into two groups: Vibratory Platform Group (GV, n = 13) and Ergometry Group (GE, n = 13). The training program of both groups was of 20 minutes / session, 3 times per week, in non-consecutive days for 6 weeks. The load of the training was adjusted with the adapted Borg scale. GE was submitted to aerobic activity sessions in a cycle ergometer. GV was submitted to vibration platform stimulation sessions. After training program both groups were submitted to 6 weeks of detraining. Results: GV increased levels of IL-4, IL-6, IL-10 and TNF-α after training, and it decreased all of them after detraining phase. GE increased IL2, IL-4, IL-6 and IL-10 only after the detraining period. Conclusion: 6 weeks of whole-body vibration training can promote an increase in pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines in young, eutrophic and sedentary women, however these effects seem to be transitory as the exercise is discontinued.

Abstract:
Cardiac stress testing improves detection and risk assessment of heart disease. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the clinical gold-standard for assessing cardiac morphology and function at rest; however, exercise MRI has not been widely adapted for cardiac assessment because of imaging and device limitations. Commercially available magnetic resonance ergometers, together with improved imaging sequences, have overcome many previous limitations, making cardiac stress MRI more feasible. Here, we aimed to demonstrate clinical feasibility and establish the normative, healthy response to supine exercise MRI. Eight young, healthy subjects underwent rest and exercise cinematic imaging to measure left ventricular volumes and ejection fraction. To establish the normative, healthy response to exercise MRI we performed a comprehensive literature review and meta-analysis of existing exercise cardiac MRI studies. Results were pooled using a random effects model to define the left ventricular ejection fraction, end-diastolic, end-systolic, and stroke volume responses. Our proof-of-concept data showed a marked increase in cardiac index with exercise, secondary to an increase in both heart rate and stroke volume. The change in stroke volume was driven by a reduction in end-systolic volume, with no change in end-diastolic volume. These findings were entirely consistent with 17 previous exercise MRI studies (226 individual records), despite differences in imaging approach, ergometer, or exercise type. Taken together, the data herein demonstrate that exercise cardiac MRI is clinically feasible, using commercially available exercise equipment and vendor-provided product sequences and establish the normative, healthy response to exercise MRI.

Abstract:
12009 Background: Older adults are at risk for physical function decline during therapy for AML. Impaired physical function after induction therapy is associated with shorter survival Interventions designed to maintain function may improve treatment outcomes. We piloted a physical activity (PA) intervention among older adults receiving intensive chemotherapy for AML designed to prevent functional decline. Methods: Single institution randomized pilot study of PA vs. usual care. Eligibility included age ≥60 years, newly-diagnosed AML, ambulatory, planned intensive induction chemotherapy. Intervention participants were offered a PA session five days/week tailored daily to symptoms and conditions during the induction hospitalization. Session options were: 1) Standard (ward-based), walking + balance trahining + resistance exercises; 2) Intermediate (room-based), upper-body ergometer + balance training + resistance exercises; 3) Low-intensity (bed-based), upper-body ergometer + resistance exercises. Behavioral counseling sessions to establish PA goals and overcome barriers were conducted weekly during hospitalization and continued monthly by phone for 6 months. Assessment of physical function occurred at baseline, weekly during hospitalization (approximately 4-6 weeks), 3 months, and 6 months. The primary functional outcome of interest was the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB; 5 repeat chair stands, gait speed, balance tests; score 0-12 higher indicates better function). Clinically significant change in physical function was defined as ≥1.0 on the SPPB. Proportions of those that declined, remained stable, or improved on the SPPB were compared by group using an exact test for trend. Results: Among 96 eligible patients 70 enrolled (recruitment rate 73%, average participation 3 sessions/week). The mean age was 72.1±6.3 years, 70% were male. Mean baseline SPPB score was 7.0±3.8. In the surviving intention to treat population (N = 66), more intervention participants, compared to controls, maintained or improved their SPPB score (38% vs. 25%) during induction hospitalization (p = 0.278). Among those who achieved remission (N = 42), function was maintained or improved in a greater proportion of intervention participants (55%) compared to controls (23%), p = 0.047. Maintenance or improvement in SPPB from baseline to last follow-up (3 or 6 months post enrollment) was 62% vs 54% for intervention versus control among the intention to treat cohort (N = 50) and 67% vs. 55% among those who achieved remission (N = 40). Conclusions: A symptom adapted PA intervention with behavioral counseling during induction chemotherapy shows promise in preventing clinically meaningful decline in physical function among older adults with AML who achieve remission. Continued maintenance intervention may sustain benefits. Clinical trial information: NCT01519596.

Abstract:
The aerobic power and body composition of 18 sightless adolescents (10 males and 8 females) has been tested by standard laboratory techniques. While attending a residential school and participating in specific sessions of vigorous endurance activity at least three times per week, their fitness was comparable to that of normally sighted adolescents (estimated body fat 14.9, 25.3%, directly measured cycle ergometer maximum oxygen intake 51.7, 39.7 ml $$ kg-1 min-1). However, after a 10-week summer vacation spent with their parents, the physical condition of these children had deteriorated to levels previously reported for blind children (estimated body fat 14.7, 27.1%, directly measured maximum oxygen intake 44.9, 33.7 ml $$ kg-1 min-1). It is concluded that sightless students can attain normal levels of fitness for their age if given an adequate and suitably adapted physical activity program. However, if condition is to be maintained, programs should stress patterns of activity suited to the home environment, which typically has no special equipment or trained guides.

Abstract:
Abstract:The relationship was studied between the increase in oxygen uptake (VO2) measured breath-by-breath at the mouth, and the increase in femoral artery blood flow measured continuously with pulsed and echo Doppler methods. Five men exercised at 50 W on a knee extension ergometer in both the supine and the upright posture. The kinetics of the responses were determined by curve fitting to obtain the mean response time (MRT = 63% of the time required to achieve steady state). In the upright position, the increase in blood flow (MRT = 12.4 ± 9.4 s, mean ± SD) was faster than the increase in VO2 (29.6 ± 9.3 s). Likewise in the supine position, blood flow increased more rapidly (25.1 + 9.7 s vs. 36.7 ± 9.6 s). It should be noted that the increase in blood flow appeared to be faster than VO2, yet when blood flow adapted more slowly in the supine posture, it had an impact on the adaptation of VO2. This suggests that blood flow might have important effects on metabolism at the onset of submaximal exercise.

Abstract:
Abstract Background: Poor treatment tolerance contributes to suboptimal outcomes for many older adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Treatment-associated physical deconditioning during induction may limit therapeutic options and impair quality of life. Interventions to enhance physical function during therapy may improve treatment tolerance and benefit. Objective: To test the feasibility of conducting a symptom-adapted inpatient physical activity (PA) intervention among older adults receiving intensive induction chemotherapy for AML. Methods: A single institution randomized controlled pilot study (N=70) was conducted from October 2012-July 2015. Eligibility included age ≥60 years, newly diagnosed AML, and receipt of induction chemotherapy. Exclusion criteria included medical contraindication to PA at the time of enrollment, cognitive impairment, and/or receipt of low intensity therapy. Participants randomized to the intervention were offered a PA session five days per week tailored daily to symptoms and health status during the induction hospitalization. Session options included: 1) Standard (ward-based), walking + balance training + resistance exercises; 2) Intermediate (room-based), upper-body ergometer + balance training + resistance exercises; and 3) Low-intensity (bed-based), upper-body ergometer + resistance exercises. Counseling sessions to establish PA goals and trouble-shoot barriers were conducted weekly during hospitalization. Phone counseling to reinforce PA goals continued monthly post-hospitalization during follow-up (up to 6 months). The control arm received usual care. Assessment of physical function (self-report and objective), mood, symptoms, and quality of life was done at baseline, 3 months and 6 months with weekly physical function testing while hospitalized. The primary outcome was feasibility defined as recruitment (≥60%), adherence (>75%, average 3 sessions/week), and retention (85% follow-up for eligible participants). Results: There were 97 eligible patients of which 70 enrolled (recruitment rate 72%). The study sample was 70% male, mean age was 72.1 years (Standard Deviation [SD] 6.3), mean Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation Comorbidity index score was 2.0 (SD 1.8), mean hemoglobin 9.3 (SD 1.6), mean white cell count 17 (SD 33.7), and 93% had adequate ECOG performance status (0-2). The majority had intermediate (61%) or poor (33%) risk cytogenetics. Most common induction regimens included anthracycline+cytarabine (80%) and clofarabine (15.7%). A total of 732 PA sessions were offered during the course of the study. Patients were deemed medically ineligible to participate in 13% of these sessions. Of eligible sessions, the participation rate was 80%. Of weeks with at least one eligible day, the average number of weekly sessions conducted per participant was 3.0 (SD 1.6). Overall mean number of sessions/participant was 14.5 (SD 9.4). Among the 35 participants randomized to the intervention 74% completed a program evaluation. Most reported that they liked the program (88%), found it helpful (88%) and planned to continue physical activity post discharge (69%). The activities rated to be most helpful were: combination of balance + resistance exercises + walking (31%), resistance exercises alone (23%) and balance exercises alone (15%). Retention was 96% among evaluable participants (survived at least to the 3 month follow-up assessment, N=53). Conclusions: Delivery of a symptom-adapted inpatient PA intervention to older adults receiving intensive induction chemotherapy for AML is feasible and well received by participants. Next steps include estimation of the effect size of the intervention on physical function, symptoms, and quality of life. Disclosures Pardee: Celgene: Speakers Bureau; Novartis: Speakers Bureau.

Abstract:
Cycloergometry associated with a Serious Game can contribute to the improvement of lower limb motor performance, aerobic capacity, balance, and in addition, increase motivation during therapy. This study is conducted to evaluate the feasibility of using adapted cycle ergometry associated with a serious game on hemiparetic patients due to stroke in the acute phase. It is a feasibility study with a cross-sectional design, with hospitalized patients aged 18 years or older and clinically stable. Pre-intervention: lower limb performance (Sit and Stand Test for five times) and functional mobility (Timed Up and Go Test) evaluated. A Likert scale was applied to verify the motivation, training ease performing, and the participants' perception of the resource's usefulness. The Serious Game was used on two consecutive days for 30 minutes each. Vital signs and perceived exertion (Borg Scale) were monitored during therapy. Sixty-five individuals, with a mean age of 62, 88 12, 23, participated in the research. Regarding motivation during the game, 98.5% of the participants reported feeling motivated during the activity. The resource was considered easy for 87.7% of the individuals, and 78.5% perceived its usefulness in therapy. There was no statistically significant difference in hemodynamic variables, demonstrating safety in the application of the game in the acute phase. The motivation, attention, engagement, and satisfaction with the use of the system during the sessions indicate a very interesting potential for use in this phase.

Abstract:
Purpose: We consider that with computer assisted learning on the simulator (CALS) the swimmers' gestures can be improved through adjusting the command and control program, which represents a major necessity in their trainings. Computer assisted learning on WEBA SWIM ergometer can provide an accurate, intense and instant feedback, since in a motor act the adaptation and the command of higher systems are linked to a retroaction loop. This loop is a performance controller, which quickly diminishes the useless or wrong movements. Methods: The applied methods aimed towards establishing the efficiency of CALS. Eight male swimmers were investigated during an experimental study. The subjects were selected out of the best performers aged 10 to 13, while their physical activity was determined based upon some tests on the motor and technical proficiency. The components of the control group practiced only specific training in the water, while the experimental group benefited also from CALS. The experimental study lasted six months, at a frequency of three training sessions a week. Results: These experimental results validate the hypotheses of our study and, implicitly, prove the efficiency of the CALS. Considering the given outcomes, we think that computer assisted learning on the simulator can be recommended as an efficient complementary training for swimmers. Conclusions: In this discipline, any technical method is made up of successive or concomitant interventions of many muscular groups. They rely on the existence of some complex sets of nervous commands for each muscular group, incorporated into a unitary program of the whole movements. In our opinion, the control process can be realized more efficiently with the help of CALS. Furthermore, the use of some simulator training sessions based on different means and methods, such as those proposed by us, won't generate any more stereotyped efforts. Hence, swimmer's training should be adapted also to terrestrial settings.
