“…A study showed [28] that physical activity can create an anti-inflammatory environment in the human body. The human body will stimulate the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis during physical activities, which can reduce the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines from hippocampal cells, increase the release of anti-inflammatory cytokines, and improve the inflammatory environment of the internal environment [29].…”

Objective: To explore the relationship between physical activity intensity and depressive symptoms in Chinese middle-aged and elderly people, and to provide new evidence for the prevention and treatment of depression by physical activity. Methods: The data came from the 2018 China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study. Using the PPS sampling method, a baseline survey was conducted among middle-aged and elderly people over the age of 45 across the country to investigate their demographics, health status, economic status, and other information. A total of 6128 people with complete information on depression and physical activity were included in the analysis. The Z-test, analysis of covariance, and logistic regression were performed on the data using SPSS 27.0 software. Results: In terms of depressive symptoms, the proportion of detected depressive symptoms was 33.6% and the proportion of no depressive symptoms was 69.4%, and the prevalence of males was higher than that of females. Participants with high physical activity accounted for 50.9%, participants with low physical activity accounted for 49.1%, and the physical activity of males was significantly higher than that of females. There was a significant relationship between physical activity and depressive symptoms in middle-aged and elderly people (p < 0.05), and after adjusting for demographic variables (location of residence, education level, gender, age, and widowed or not), health status characteristics and living habits (diabetes and disability), self-rated health status, hypertension, stroke, hyperlipidemia, arthritis, and walking 1 km, the association between physical activity and depressive symptoms remained statistically significant (p < 0.05). Conclusion: The proportion of Chinese middle-aged and elderly men suffering from depressive symptoms was slightly higher than that of women, and middle-aged and elderly people with high physical activity had a lower risk of developing depressive symptoms. Attention should be paid to middle-aged and elderly people who are older, have poor self-assessed health status, have disabilities, have high blood pressure, have arthritis, have low physical activity and cannot walk one kilometer, and have low physical activity. Scientific and effective exercise prescriptions should be explored to prevent and improve depressive symptoms in middle-aged and elderly people.

“…A study showed that, [ 45 ] the test results of physiological and biochemical indicators of patients with depression showed that the level of inflammatory markers in patients with depression was higher than normal value, such as interleukin-10, interleukin-6, tumor necrosis factor and C-reactive protein. Another study showed that [ 46 ] physical activity can create an anti-inflammatory environment in the human body. During physical activities, the human body will stimulate the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis to promote the release of adrenal hormones, cortisol and anti-inflammatory cytokine-interleukin-10, which can reduce the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines in the hippocampus.…”

“…Physical activity can improve the inflammatory environment of the internal environment by promoting the release of anti-inflammatory cytokines. [ 47 ] Both antidepressant drugs and physical activities can create an anti-inflammatory environment in the internal environment of the human body, which indicates that physical activities can be used as a way to replace drugs to treat depression.…”

Due to aging, decreased immune function, and an increase in various diseases, frail elderly people are prone to symptoms of depression, which may seriously affect their quality of life. Physical activity and exercise therapy have been identified as a promising method for preventing and treating depression in the elderly. This narrative review assesses the relationship between physical activity and depressive symptoms in frail elderly people, the mechanisms by which physical activity affects depressive symptoms, and the effectiveness of exercise therapy on the health status of frail elderly people. Through searches on the web of science, scopus, PubMed, and CNKI databases, there are a large number of studies on the relationship between physical activity and depression; However, few of them give us a mechanism for how physical activity affects depression. Although all progress has been made in developing appropriate exercise therapy to treat depression, the mechanisms underlying the effects of different types of exercise therapy on depression in frail elderly people have not been satisfactorily addressed, and the optimal effect of exercise therapy on depression cannot be achieved. In this way, future research should more effectively clarify the mechanism of physical activity affecting depression in frail elderly people in China, in order to understand which exercise therapy or how to formulate exercise prescriptions can make exercise therapy play the greatest role in treating depression in vulnerable elderly people in China.

“…The results indicated that 35 Hz local vibration did not induce a stressed state in rats and may not inhibit the HPA axis function. Instead, it appeared to protect the HPA axis function, helping tail-suspended rats transition from a stressed to an adaptive state [64].…”

This comprehensive study delves into the profound impact of low frequency whole-body vibrations (WBV) on health, focusing on the utilization of rat models for understanding this complex phenomenon. It highlights the adverse effects of low frequency vehicle vibrations on human health, encompassing musculoskeletal discomfort, fatigue, concentration deficits, potential gastrointestinal issues, hearing impairment, and psychological stress. WBV's influence extends to physiological and cognitive consequences, affecting multiple systems. Prolonged WBV exposure, particularly in the lumbar region, is associated with spinal disorders. To navigate ethical challenges in studying WBV in humans, rat models are crucial tools. These models, with customized parameters, offer insights into various health aspects, including bone density, muscle strength, hormonal responses, cardiovascular parameters, and more. Advantages and disadvantages of using low-frequency vibrations in rat models are discussed. While demonstrating WBV's potential effect in research, further exploration is essential to optimize parameters and applications, always prioritizing ethical considerations and regulations. The article concludes by proposing measures to mitigate vehicle vibration impacts on drivers, emphasizing the collaboration of manufacturers, drivers, and regulators for safer and healthier driving experiences.
