Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Aerobic physical activity attenuates systemic inflammatory activity in individuals with cardiovascular risk.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Background: Observational studies suggest that exercise has anti-inflammatory effect, however this idea has not been definitively confirmed by randomized clinical trials.

Objective: To test the hypothesis that aerobic exercise attenuates systemic inflammatory activity in individuals with cardiovascular risk.

Methods: Randomized controlled trial, which included 68 sedentary individuals, with at least two risk factors for coronary heart disease or established cardiovascular disease. The volunteers were randomized to 3 months of supervised aerobic training or just advice when healthy lifestyles. C-reactive protein (CRP) was measured by the method of high sensitivity before and after 3 months of intervention.
