“…Whole-body MV has been clinically implemented as a therapy for a variety of musculoskeletal diseases, including osteoporosis 15 and OA 16 . A number of studies report beneficial effects of mechanical stimulation in bone 15,17,18 , muscle 19 and cartilage 16,20,21 . Vibration provides improvements in muscle strength 16,22 , pain reduction 16,23 and decreased plasma concentrations of inflammatory markers 23 in OA patients.…”

“…At baseline, calf muscle CSA was significantly correlated with the BMD of the hip (R = 0.58, P = .0017) and spine (R = 0.55, P = .0034), suggesting that BMD at central sites in this population are better maintained in individuals with better musculature independent of any intervention. Paralleling these results, a recent study involving postmenopausal women undergoing whole-body vibrations with 60-Hz frequency and 0.6 g intensity showed significant improvement in muscle strength after 12 months of 20 min/d, 5 times per week intervention (48). It is likely that the changes we observed in bone were at least partly due to the effect of muscular stimulation on bone, in addition to direct stimulation of bone or mechanical coupling of osteocyte nuclei and the cytoskeleton as previously suggested.…”

The Efficacy of Low-intensity Vibration to Improve Bone Health in Patients with End-stage Renal Disease Is Highly Dependent on Compliance and Muscle Response

Rational and Objectives Low intensity vibration (LIV) may represent a nondrug strategy to mitigate bone deficits in patients with end-stage renal disease. Materials and Methods Thirty end-stage renal patients on maintenance hemodialysis were randomized to stand for 20 minutes each day on either an active or placebo LIV device. Analysis at baseline and completion of 6-month intervention included magnetic resonance imaging (tibia and fibula stiffness; trabecular thickness, number, separation, bone volume fraction, plate-to-rod ratio; and cortical bone porosity), dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (hip and spine bone mineral density [BMD]), and peripheral quantitative computed tomography (tibia trabecular and cortical BMD; calf muscle cross-sectional area). Results Intention-to-treat analysis did not show any significant changes in outcomes associated with LIV. Subjects using the active device and with greater than the median adherence (70%) demonstrated an increase in distal tibia stiffness (5.3%), trabecular number (1.7%), BMD (2.3%), and plate-to-rod ratio (6.5%), and a decrease in trabecular separation (−1.8%). Changes in calf muscle cross-sectional area were associated with changes in distal tibia stiffness (R = 0.85), trabecular bone volume/total volume (R = 0.91), number (R = 0.92), and separation (R = −0.94) in the active group but not in the placebo group. Baseline parathyroid hormone levels were positively associated with increased cortical bone porosity over the 6-month study period in the placebo group (R = 0.55) but not in the active group (R = 0.01). No changes were observed in the nondistal tibia locations for either group except a decrease in hip BMD in the placebo group (−1.7%). Conclusion Outcomes and adherence thresholds identified from this pilot study could guide future longitudinal studies involving vibration therapy.

“…Although not significant, the exercise when performed at the frequency of 35 Hz showed a greater HR variation in the COPD group. In this context, studies demonstrated that transmissions of vibrational stimuli to soft tissues seem to suffer an attenuation of the stimulus in the hip and spine joints at frequencies above 35 Hz (11). Pleguezuelos et al (22) adopted a WBV protocol with frequency of 35 Hz and demonstrated that there was an increase of 15 beats during each session of WBV in people with severe COPD.…”

This study aims to investigate the cardiorespiratory responses to different vibration frequencies to characterize the intensity of exercise, as well as to compare the effect of two types of squatting exercises (static and dynamic) on the whole body vibration (WBV) exercise in individuals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Twenty-six subjects were divided and paired into healthy and COPD groups that performed static squatting associated with WBV (frequencies: 30, 35, and 40 Hz; amplitude: 2 mm) and dynamic squatting associated with WBV (frequency: 35 Hz; amplitude 2 mm) on a vertical vibration platform. Oxygen consumption (V̇o2), heart rate (HR), minute ventilation (V̇e), ratio of minute ventilation to oxygen production (V̇e/V̇o2), ratio of minute ventilation to carbon dioxide production (V̇e/V̇co2), oxygen saturation (SpO2), and rating of perceived exertion were measured. For both groups, there was a decrease in V̇e/V̇o2 and V̇e/V̇co2 ratios during static and dynamic squats, as well as an increase in other cardiorespiratory parameters, and no significant difference existed between them. There was an effect of the type of squat on the HR variation; the values in the static squat were higher than those of the dynamic squat in both groups. There was a significant difference with a reduction in SpO2 at 40 Hz frequency when compared with 30 Hz in the COPD group. The other variables behaved similarly between the frequencies. The WBV exercise, regardless of the frequencies used, represented a mild effort that promoted cardiorespiratory response in COPD, with greater responses in the static squat and no adverse effect. NEW & NOTEWORTHY This study showed that an acute session of light exercise of whole body vibration (WBV) can increase the cardiorespiratory responses in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), reaching values similar to that of the control group. The results might contribute, therefore, to the elaboration of exercise protocols with WBV for the treatment of patients with COPD during rehabilitation. Thus, future studies referring to training on the vibratory platform could use these exercise parameters and demonstrate possible long-term benefits.
