Background: The aim of this meta-analysis was to investigate the effects of concurrent, aerobic, and resistance exercise on markers of inflammation and vascular adhesion molecules (high-sensitivity C-reactive protein [hs-CRP], interleukin [IL]-6, tumour necrosis factor-alpha [TNF-α], soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 [sICAM-1], soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 [sVCAM-1], fibrinogen, IL-1-β, IL-10, IL-18, and E-selectin) in patients with heart failure (HF).

Methods: The PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar databases were searched for dates up to August 31, 2022. Randomized controlled trial studies for exercise interventions on circulating inflammatory and vascular adhesion markers in patients with HF were included.
