“…Emtner et al decided to use a 10-week exercise program in a swimming pool [24]. There are many similarities between their exercise protocol and the one used in the present study.…”

“…The training sessions started with a 12-min warm-up, and continued with interval training, comprising five 2-min periods of intensive repetitive exercise that engaged the large muscle groups, separated by 1.5-min periods of mild exercises (total 16 min). A cooling-down period (7 min) and stretching exercises (10 min) in the pool completed each 45-min session [24]. After this program an average improvement of 111 m in a 12-min walking test was observed, as well as a decreased heart rate at the same load on the cycloergometer (average of 12 beats/min).…”

“…Improvements in overall physical fitness with increased ventilatory capacity and reduced asthma-related symptoms because of aerobic exercise have been documented in several studies (5,13). Even the American Thoracic Society guidelines for pulmonary rehabilitation program recommends low-to moderate-intensity aerobic exercise for patients with chronic respiratory disease (14).…”

“…Emtner et al (5) reported that adults with mild to moderate asthma who engaged in a 10-week physical training program demonstrated increased ventilatory capacity and reduced exercise-induced bronchospasm and asthma-related symptoms. During the long-term follow-up, it was observed that patients who performed moderate exercise for 3 years had reduced asthma-related emergency room visits during this time (16).…”

Objective: Immune responses can change with exercise. We aimed to show the changes in cytokine levels pre-and post-exercise in patients with asthma. Methods:In this prospective control trial, data of 32 patients with asthma that was under control were classified into two groups, pre-and post-exercise. Serum IL-1β and monocyte IL-1β, IL-2, and IL-10 expressions were evaluated using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The patients were advised to walk for at least 30 min for 4 days/week for 12 weeks.Results: There was no significant difference in demographic properties of the participants. Monocyte IL-1β levels in the pre-and post-exercise groups were 1.99±0.35 and 1.01±0.22 pg/mL, respectively (p=0.003). IL-10 levels in the pre-and post-exercise groups were 1.64±0.02 and 1.21±0.03 pg/mL, respectively (p=0.04). IL-2 levels in the pre-and post-exercise groups were 0.64±0.045 and 0.32±0.09 pg/mL, respectively (p=0.001). However, there was a significant difference in serum IL-1β and monocyte IL-1β, IL-2, and IL-10 levels between the groups (p=0.02, p=0.003, p=0.04, and p=0.001, respectively). Conclusion:Systemic inflammatory parameters that are commonly elevated in asthma may improve by exercise. The elucidation of the mechanism of immune control in patients with asthma is useful for the future treatment of asthma.

“…Os asmáticos menos condicionados podem melhorar sua aptidão física por meio de um programa de treinamento físi-co. Cochrane e Clark (24) observaram aumento no VO 2 max de 62% para 76% (p = 0,001) em 18 asmáticos submetidos a um programa de treinamento físico com duração de três meses. Outros pesquisadores observaram igualmente melhora na capacidade aeróbia com o treinamento físico (25)(26)(27) . Entretanto, Bundgaard et al (25) e Neder et al (27) não verificaram redução na ocorrência de BIE após o período de treinamento físico.…”
