AD is a complicated multi-systemic neurological disorder that involves different biological pathways. Several risk factors have been identified, including chronic stress. Chronic stress produces an alteration in the activity of the hypothalamic pituitary adrenal (HPA) system, and the autonomic nervous system (ANS), which over time increase the risk of AD and also the incidence of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and risk factors, such as hypertension, obesity and type 2 diabetes, associated with cognitive impairment and AD.

- A study evaluated the effects of a 12-week functional resistance training program on females with chronic low back pain (CLBP), focusing on their health-related quality of life, pain levels, disability, and physical fitness.
- Nineteen females participated, with one group undergoing the exercise regimen while the other acted as a control; various physical and health assessments were conducted before and after the program.
- Results showed significant improvements in pain, disability, balance, and overall physical fitness for the exercise group, suggesting that this training can effectively support CLBP treatment.
