Muscle thickness and pennation angle in overweight persons with moderate haemophilia A after resistance and combined training: A randomized controlled trial.

Introduction: Muscular atrophy and overweightness develop arthropathy in persons with haemophilia (PWH), and exercise increases their muscle strength and decreases their body weight. Musculoskeletal ultrasonography may be a non-invasive, safe, valid, and reliable tool to investigate muscle thickness (MT) and pennation angle (PA) after exercise training.

Objectives: The present study was conducted to evaluate the effects of 6 weeks of resistance training (RT) and combined resistance and aerobic training (CT) on MT and PA in overweight persons with moderate haemophilia A.

Effects of short-term aerobic, resistance and combined exercises on the lipid profiles and quality of life in overweight individuals with moderate hemophilia A: A randomized controlled trial.

Overweight is related to increased risks of cardiovascular diseases and dyslipidemia, and reduced quality of life (QOL). Exercise training improves QOL and modifies cardiovascular risk factors and lipid profile. The present study was conducted to compare three types of exercise in terms of their short term effects on QOL and lipid profile in overweight individuals with moderate hemophilia A (IWMHA).

Effect of Pulsed Electromagnetic Fields on Clinical Signs and Quality of Life in Patients with Hemophilic Arthropathy of the Knee Joint: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

Background: Hemophilic arthropathy (HA) causes severe joint damage and impairs the quality of life (QoL) of hemophiliacs. This study was undertaken to evaluate the effect of pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMFs) on the clinical signs and QoL of patients with severe hemophilia A experiencing moderate HA in the knee joint.

Materials And Methods: Thirty-six severe hemophiliacs with HA of the knee joint were randomly assigned into the PEMF ( = 20) or placebo ( = 16) groups.

The Effect of Core Stabilization Exercises on Trunk-Pelvis Three-Dimensional Kinematics During Gait in Non-Specific Chronic Low Back Pain.

Study Design: Controlled clinical trial study.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of core stabilization exercise program (CSEP) on trunk-pelvis kinematics during gait in non-specific chronic low back pain (NCLBP).

Summary Of Background Data: NCLBP is a major public burden with variety of dysfunction including gait variability.

The effects of six-week resistance, aerobic and combined exercises on the pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory markers in overweight patients with moderate haemophilia A: A randomized controlled trial.

Introduction: Overweight increases the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines and serves as a major risk factor for arthropathy and cardiovascular diseases (CVD). This condition is becoming increasingly prevalent among patients with haemophilia (PWH). Different forms of exercise training could favourably modify weight-related complications, cardiovascular risk factors and the inflammation.

Effects of short-term resistance training and pulsed electromagnetic fields on bone metabolism and joint function in severe haemophilia A patients with osteoporosis: a randomized controlled trial.

Objectives: To assess the effects of short-term resistance training and pulsed electromagnetic fields on bone metabolism and joint function in patients with haemophilia with osteoporosis.

Design: A randomized, controlled, patient and blood sample assessor-blinded, six-week trial, three times weekly.

Setting: Hospital outpatients with severe haemophilia A and osteoporosis.
