Cardiorespiratory fitness and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity in older adults with multiple sclerosis

Abstract: Background Cardiorespiratory fitness (VO2peak) may be a modifiable indicator of health status and well-being in older adults with multiple sclerosis. Purpose We examined differences in VO2peak and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity between older adults with multiple sclerosis and healthy controls, and whether moderate-to-vigorous physical activity accounted for group differences in VO2peak. Methods Older adults with multiple sclerosis ( n = 31) and healthy controls ( n = 29) completed a cardiopulmonary exe… Show more

“…But there were no significant differences in IC Z-scores for a combination of both of those training. The Multiple Sclerosis group had lower cardiorespiratory fitness (VO2peak) and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity [3]. Although all the groups improved peak VO2, physical function, and appearance scores, the group with Aerobic Training (AT) also improved strength and anthropometric measures in this study Collins KA, et al [5].…”

“…It has been shown by different studies that aerobic exercise can improve physical fitness in different ways. It improves psychological well-being (PWB) and quality of life (QoL) in older people [1], heart rate response [2], VO2peak [3], and intrinsic capacity (IC) [4]. It can also improve some aspects of health-related quality of life (HrQoL), such as physical function and appearance [5], physical activity and intensity [6,7,17], fitness performance [6,8], verbal memory and executive function [9], cognitive function [10], general health and energy [12], cardiorespiratory endurance [12], body image [13], systemic inflammation [14], sleep quality [16], and functional balance [49].…”

“…Cardiorespiratory fitness is related to the capacity of offering oxygen during activities, which allows people to do exercises for a longer time. 1,2 There is evidence for the need to improve cardiorespiratory fitness in the general population 3,4 ; predominantly, in people with stroke, 5,6 chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, 7 multiple sclerosis, 8 and obesity. 9 As poor cardiorespiratory fitness is related to the development of those diseases, and mortality, 10,11 its evaluation is important for planning appropriate interventions that may help improve this outcome.…”
