Nazir A. Exercise as a modality to improve heart transplantation-related functional impairments: An article review. World J Transplant 2024; 14:91637.

Abstract
Heart transplantation (HT), the treatment choice of advanced heart failure patients, is proven effective in increasing the survival and functional status of the recipients. However, compared to normal controls, functional status is lower in HT recipients. Exercise given in cardiac rehabilitation has been shown to improve exercise capacity as measured with peak oxygen uptake (VO2 peak) and muscle strength after completion of the program and cessation of exercise results in loss of exercise benefits. Several factors related to cardiac denervation and the use of immunosuppressive agents in HT recipients result in functional impairments including cardiovascular, pulmonary, exercise capacity, psychological, and quality of life (QoL) problems. High-intensity interval training (HIIT) is the most common type of exercise used in HT recipients and given as a hospital-based program. Improvement of functional impairments was found to have occurred due to primarily musculoskeletal adaptations through improvement of muscle structure and aerobic capacity and cardiovascular adaptations. In general, exercise given after transplantation improved VO2 peak significantly and improvement was better in the HIIT group compared to moderate intensity continuous training or no-exercise groups. Improvement of QoL was ascribed to improvement of exercise capacity, symptoms, pulmonary function, physical capacity improvement, anxiety, and depression.

Abstract
Little is known either about either physical activity patterns, or other lifestyle-related prevention measures in heart transplantation (HTx) recipients. The history of HTx started more than 50 years ago but there are still no guidelines or position papers highlighting the features of prevention and rehabilitation after HTx. The aims of this scientific statement are (i) to explain the importance of prevention and rehabilitation after HTx, and (ii) to promote the factors (modifiable/non-modifiable) that should be addressed after HTx to improve patients' physical capacity, quality of life and survival. All HTx team members have their role to play in the care of these patients and multidisciplinary prevention and rehabilitation programmes designed for transplant recipients. HTx recipients are clearly not healthy disease-free subjects yet they also significantly differ from heart failure patients or those who are supported with mechanical circulatory support. Therefore, prevention and rehabilitation after HTx both need to be specifically tailored to this patient population and be multidisciplinary in nature. Prevention and rehabilitation programmes should be initiated early after HTx and continued during the entire post-transplant journey. This clinical consensus.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This review reports how exercise-based rehabilitation strategies have developed over the past decades, and it specifically focuses on the effectiveness, safety, and implementation of high-intensity interval training (HIIT). It provides an overview of the historical progression, main research findings, and considerations surrounding HIIT as the preferred exercise modality for recipients of heart transplant (HTx). REVIEW METHODS The review includes a timeline of studies spanning from 1976-2023. The 2017 Cochrane systematic review on exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation in recipients of HTx serves as the main knowledge base (≥2015). Additionally, literature searches in PubMed/Medline and ClinicalTrials.gov have been performed, and all reviews and studies reporting the effects of moderate- to high-intensity exercise in recipients of HTx, published in 2015 or later have been screened. SUMMARY High-intensity interval training has gained prominence as an effective exercise intervention for recipients of HTx, demonstrated by an accumulation of performed studies in the past decade, although implementation in clinical practice remains limited. Early restrictions on HIIT in HTx recipients lacked evidence-based support, and recent research challenges these previous restrictions. High-intensity interval training results in greater improvements and benefits compared with moderate-intensity continuous training in the majority of studies. While HIIT is now regarded as generally suitable on a group level, individual assessment is still advised. The impact of HIIT involves reinnervation and central and peripheral adaptations to exercise, with variations in recipent responses, especially between de novo and maintenance recipients, and also between younger and older recipients. Long-term effects and mechanisms behind the HIIT effect warrant further investigation, as well as a focus on optimized HIIT protocols and exercise benefits.

Pro- and Anti-inflammatory Biomarkers Responses after Aerobic Training in Heart Transplant Recipients: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis. Curr Cardiol Rev 2024; 20:CCR-EPUB-139511. [PMID: 38571360 PMCID: PMC11337611 DOI: 10.2174/011573403x269909240320061952] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2023] [Revised: 12/20/2023] [Accepted: 12/29/2023] [Indexed: 04/05/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Physical exercise (PE) may improve plasma concentration of interleukin- 6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), and adiponectin (adpN) in heart transplant (HT) patients. However, no consistent data is available on this population. AIM Thus, we aimed to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis on the effects of PE over these pro- and anti-inflammatory biomarkers in HT patients. METHODS Following the guidelines established by the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) 2020 statement, we conducted a systematic literature search in the PubMed, Cochrane, and Scopus databases. Outcomes included IL-6, TNF-alpha, and adpN. Effect size (ES) was calculated using the standardized mean difference with a 95% confidence interval (CI). RESULTS The PE group (aerobic modality) was associated with reduced IL-6 compared to the control group (ES: -0.53; 95% CI: -0.99 to -0.06 pg/mL; P = 0.026). However, the PE group did not show a significant effect on TNF-alpha and adpN levels (ES: -0.33; 95% CI: -0.79 to 0.13; P = 0.16 and ES: -0.20; 95% CI: -0.70 to 0.30 pg/mL; P = 0.444, respectively). CONCLUSION PE is associated with IL-6 reductions, although TNF alpha and adpN did not change after this intervention in HT patients. Therefore, PE is an effective intervention to downregulate IL-6 in post-HT patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine the effects of high-intensity interval training on the functioning and health-related quality of life of post-stroke patients. METHODS We searched the following electronic databases: MEDLINE/Pubmed, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, PEDro database, and Scielo up to January 2022 for randomized controlled trials that investigated the effects of high-intensity interval training in post-stroke patients. Two reviewers selected the studies independently. Study quality was evaluated using the PEDro scale. The mean difference (MD), standard mean difference (SMD), and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated. RESULTS Nine studies met the study criteria (375 patients). The age of the participants ranged from 55.8 to 72.1 years. The studies included patients within 2 weeks of stroke onset to patients longer than 1 month of stroke. High-intensity interval training resulted in improvement in cardiorespiratory fitness (peak oxygen uptake) MD (3.8 mL/kg/min, 95% CI: 2.62, 5.01, n = 91), balance MD 5.7 (95% CI: 3.50, 7.91; N = 64), and gait speed SMD (0.2 m/s; 95% CI: 0.05, 0.27; N = 100) compared with continuous aerobic training. The health-related quality of life did not differ between the groups. Compared to usual care, high-intensity interval training improved the cardiorespiratory fitness SMD (0.5 95% CI: 0.14, 0.81, n = 239). No serious adverse events were observed. CONCLUSIONS The findings of this systematic review show that high-intensity interval training was more efficient than continuous aerobic training to gain cardiorespiratory fitness, balance and gait speed in post-stroke patients. In addition, compared to usual care, high-intensity interval training improved cardiorespiratory fitness.

Abstract
High-intensity interval training (HIIT), an exercise training modality of cardiac rehabilitation, has shown growing evidence of improving cardiovascular patients' prognosis and health outcomes. This study aimed to identify and summarize the effects of HIIT in heart failure (HF) patients, heart transplantation (HTx) recipients, and HF patients before and after HTx. This systematic review was based on the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. For the past five years, a systematic search was done using PubMed, PubMed Central, Cochrane, Google Scholar, and ScienceDirect databases on September 15, 2021. Studies were selected based on the following predefined eligibility criteria: English-language randomized controlled trials (RCTs), observational studies, systematic reviews, and meta-analyses, which included HF patients and HTx patients, and assessment of effects HIIT. The relevant data were extracted to a predefined template. Consequently, quality assessment was done using each study's most commonly used assessment tools. The initial search generated 551 studies. Nine studies were included in the final selection - four RCTs, one cohort, one quasi-experimental study, two systematic reviews with meta-analyses, and one narrative review. HIIT was found to be generally superior or similar with other exercise training on VO2 peak, heart rate, LVEF, cardiac biomarkers, vascular function, blood pressure, body composition, and adverse events in HF patients and the aforementioned with QoL among HTx recipients. Data on cardiac remodeling and QoL of HF patients were inconclusive.

Abstract
Cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV) remains a leading cause of long-term mortality after heart transplantation. Both preventive measures and treatment options are limited. This study aimed to evaluate the short-term effects of high-intensity interval training (HIT) on CAV in de novo heart transplant (HTx) recipients as assessed by optical coherence tomography (OCT). The study population was a subgroup of the 81-patient HITTS study in which HTx recipients were randomized to HIT or moderate intensity continuous training (MICT) for nine consecutive months. OCT images from baseline and 12 months were compared to assess CAV progression. The primary endpoint was defined as the change in the mean intima area. Paired OCT data were available for 56 patients (n = 23 in the HIT group and n = 33 in the MICT group). The intima area in the entire study population increased by 25% [from 1.8±1.4mm2 to 2.3±2.0mm2 , p<0.05]. The change was twofold higher in the MICT group (0.6±1.2 mm2 ) than in the HIT group (0.3±0.6 mm2 ). However, the treatment effect of HIT was not significant (treatment effect = -0.3 mm2 , 95% CI [-0.825 to 0.2 mm2 ] p = 0.29). These results suggest that early initiation of HIT compared with MICT does not attenuate CAV progression in de novo HTx recipients. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
