“…Similar to the Emery study referenced above, 43 it was found that exercise significantly sped healing compared to healing rate in sedentary controls. Interestingly, the major differences in healing rate between groups occurred early (1-5 days) postwounding, indicating that exercise may be exerting its effects on healing during this phase of healing.…”

“…Data was requested from these authors [47-49]; however, two studies were excluded as the authors could not be contacted [49] or could not access the required data to allow calculation of an effect size r [48]. In addition, one [50] of the intervention studies [47,50] was excluded from the meta-analysis because it did not provide evidence concerning the strength of the relationship between stress and wound healing, as the intervention failed to change levels of stress. Therefore, 12 studies were included in the meta-analysis.…”

“…A variety of stressors were measured, the most popular (10 studies) being brief naturalistic stressors (i.e., surgical procedures and academic examinations) followed by global stress appraisals [43,45,50,63,67]. Less common were acute time limited stressors [22, 48,59], chronic stressors [64,65], stressful event sequences (i.e., marital difficulties) [48,62], and distant stressors [60].…”

“…However, fewer studies comprehensively justified the analytic methods used, specifically not reporting whether data met parametric assumptions, and none reported a sample size calculation. Only one study [50] justified their sample size in terms of an effect size from a previous study. Nearly all studies attempted to control for factors which could confound the relationship between stress and healing (i.e., demographics, clinical factors, lifestyle).…”

Abstract Objective: The current review aims to synthesize existing knowledge about the relationship between psychological stress and wound healing. Methods: A systematic search strategy was conducted using electronic databases to search for published articles up to the end of October 2007. The reference lists of retrieved articles were inspected for further studies and citation searches were conducted. In addition, a meta-analysis of a subset of studies was conducted to provide a quantitative estimation of the influence of stress on wound healing. Results: Twenty-two papers met the inclusion criteria of the systematic review and a subsample of 11 was included in a meta-analysis. The studies assessed the impact of stress on the healing of a variety of wound types in different contexts, including acute and chronic clinical wounds, experimentally created punch biopsy and blister wounds, and minor damage to the skin caused by tape stripping. Seventeen studies in the systematic review reported that stress was associated with impaired healing or dysregulation of a biomarker related to wound healing. The relationship between stress and wound healing estimated by the meta-analysis was r=−0.42 (95% CI=−0.51 to −0.32) (Pb.01). Conclusion: Attention now needs to be directed towards investigating potential moderators of the relationship, mediating mechanisms underpinning the association, as well as the demonstration of a causal link by the development of experimental interventions in healthy populations.

IMPORTANCE An overwhelming amount of data suggest that cardiovascular exercise has a positive effect on the mind and body, although the precise mechanism is not always clear.OBJECTIVE To assess the clinical and biochemical effects of voluntary cardiovascular exercise on pedicled flaps in a rodent model. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTSEighteen adult Sprague-Dawley male rats were randomized into a resting animal group (RAG) (n=9) and an exercise animal group (EAG) (n=9) for 14 days (July 23, 2013, through July 30, 2013. A pedicled transposition flap was performed on the ventral surface of the rat, and biopsy specimens were taken from the proximal, middle, and distal portions on postoperative days 0, 2, 5, and 9. Flap survival was analyzed planimetrically, and biopsy specimens were analyzed by hematoxylin-eosin-stained microscopy and immunoblotting. The housing, exercise, surgery, and analysis of the rats were conducted at a single basic science research laboratory at the tertiary care center campus of
