Abstract
INTRODUCTION Among the limited studies on physical exercise interventions in adults with cystic fibrosis (CF), few have specifically addressed the improvement of peripheral muscle strength and body fat-free mass. The aim of this study was to examine the impacts of a remotely supervised, individualized 8-week resistance training program of moderate to high intensity on strength and body composition in these subjects. METHODS This was a randomized controlled trial performed in adults with CF. The exercise group (EX) performed three 1-h resistance training sessions per week over 8 weeks. The control group (CON) followed the physical activity recommendations of their physician. The main outcomes were muscle strength and body composition, with secondary measures including pulmonary function and quality of life. Two-way repeated measures analysis was used. RESULTS In 23 participants (age 32.13 ± 7.72 years), the intervention showed a significant beneficial effect on leg press strength, with a large effect size, both in absolute (p = 0.011;η p 2 $$ {\eta}_{\mathrm{p}}^2 $$ = 0.281) and relative (p = 0.007;η p 2 $$ {\eta}_{\mathrm{p}}^2 $$ = 0.310) terms. Large intervention effects were observed on total fat mass (p < 0.001;η p 2 $$ {\eta}_{\mathrm{p}}^2 $$ = 0.415), body adiposity index (p < 0.001;η p 2 $$ {\eta}_{\mathrm{p}}^2 $$ = 0.436), and fat mass index (p < 0.001;η p 2 $$ {\eta}_{\mathrm{p}}^2 $$ = 0.445), all showing reduction in the EX group. In addition, significant large size effects were detected on total fat-free mass (p = 0.046;η p 2 $$ {\eta}_{\mathrm{p}}^2 $$ = 0.177), trunk fat-free mass (p = 0.039;η p 2 $$ {\eta}_{\mathrm{p}}^2 $$ = 0.188), and fat-free mass index (p = 0.048;η p 2 $$ {\eta}_{\mathrm{p}}^2 $$ = 0.174), all favoring exercise. No significant effects were observed on pulmonary function and quality of life. CONCLUSIONS An 8-week remotely supervised resistance training program, with moderate to high intensity, effectively improved lower limb muscle strength and body composition.

Effect of Water-Based vs. Land-Based Exercise Intervention (postCOVIDkids) on Exercise Capacity, Fatigue, and Quality of Life in Children with Post COVID-19 Condition: A Randomized Controlled Trial. J Clin Med 2023; 12:6244. [PMID: 37834888 PMCID: PMC10573606 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12196244] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/04/2023] [Revised: 09/17/2023] [Accepted: 09/26/2023] [Indexed: 10/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Evidence suggests that COVID-19 can cause lasting health consequences called post-COVID-19 condition. We conducted a three-group, randomized controlled trial for children aged 10-12 years with post COVID-19 condition. Participants were randomized to AQUA, LAND, or CONTROL groups. The AQUA and LAND training sessions were conducted twice a week for eight weeks. The primary outcomes were exercise capacity, measured using the modified Balke treadmill protocol, and fatigue, measured using the Cumulative Fatigue Symptoms Questionnaire (CFSQ). The secondary outcome was health-related quality of life (HRQoL), measured with the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL) for children and parents. A total of 74 of the 86 children completed the intervention and attended the post-intervention assessment. The absolute maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) values increased after both AQUA (p = 0.001) and LAND (p = 0.004) interventions. No significant differences were found in the degree of total fatigue and individual fatigue symptoms. A significant improvement was found in the PedsQL reported by the parents in the LAND group. In conclusion, the applied eight-week water-based and land-based exercise training programs improved exercise capacity in children aged 10-12 years old with post COVID-19 condition. The parents of the children in the training groups also noted an improvement in HRQoL.

Lurquin F, Gohy S, Hermans MP, Preumont V. Combined CFTR modulator therapies are linked with anabolic benefits and insulin-sparing in cystic fibrosis-related diabetes. J Clin Transl Endocrinol 2023; 33:100320. [PMID: 37448650 PMCID: PMC10336243 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcte.2023.100320] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2023] [Revised: 06/18/2023] [Accepted: 06/22/2023] [Indexed: 07/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Aims Combined CFTR modulator therapies have dramatically altered pulmonary outcomes in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). Their impact on glucose metabolism requires further investigations. This study aims to evaluate insulin requirements after initiation of combined CFTR modulator therapy in patients with CF-related diabetes (CFRD) and HOMA indices changes in CF patients without diabetes. Methods We retrospectively analyzed: 1) the effects of tezacaftor + ivacaftor and elexacaftor + tezacaftor + ivacaftor on FEV1, weight, BMI, HbA1c, and daily insulin dose, in 17 CFRD patients and 2) the impact of tezacaftor + ivacaftor on HOMA indices in 15 CF patients without diabetes. Results Age was 37±12y in the CFRD group (70% men), 88% of whom were homozygous for F508del mutation. Diabetes duration was 15±10y. Median duration of combined CFTR modulator therapy was 16 months (IQR: 4) Thirteen patients received tezacaftor + ivacaftor, of whom 9 were switched to elexacaftor + tezacaftor + ivacaftor. Four patients received elexacaftor + tezacaftor + ivacaftor up front. A decrease in insulin needs was noticed in 88% of patients (0.85±0.3 vs 0.71±0.3U/kg/day; p = 0001). Total daily insulin dose decreased from 50±16 to 44±20U/day (p = 0.017). BMI improved (20.9 (IQR: 1.90) vs 22.1 kg/m2 (IQR: 3.70); p = 0.014). HbA1c went from 7.3±1.1 to 7.7±1.6% (p = 0.072). Median age was 22y (IQR: 11) in the CF group without diabetes (67% men), 93% of whom were homozygous for F508del mutation. Duration of combined CFTR modulator therapy was 10±5 months. HOMA-B changes were not significant (129.2 (IQR: 84.8) vs 103.5% (IQR: 66.3) nor were HOMA-S changes (from 94±64 to 95±49%). HOMA-BxS decreased from 112±45 to 104±29% (NS). BMI rose from 21.9±3 to 23.1±3.5 kg/m2 (p = 0.047). HbA1c was unchanged (5.0±0.5%). FEV1 improved in both groups (+11% and + 7% of predicted value; p < 0.001; p = 0.013). Conclusion Combined CFTR modulator therapies are correlated with a decrease in insulin doses and positive effects on BMI and FEV1. HOMA indices did not change on tezacaftor + ivacaftor among CF patients without diabetes.
