Reduced exercise capacity can predispose solid organ transplant (SOT) recipients to higher risk of diabetes, cardiovascular complications, and mortality and impact their quality of life. This systematic review and meta-analysis investigated the effects of exercise training (versus no training) in adult SOT recipients. We conducted an electronic search of randomized controlled trials reporting on exercise interventions in SOT recipients.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to compare acute adverse effects and facial skin temperature changes after using noninvasive ventilation (NIV) in healthy volunteers, focusing on two modes: BiPAP and CPAP.
  • Results showed that BiPAP led to a higher incidence and intensity of adverse effects compared to CPAP, with facial thermography revealing significant cooling of skin in specific areas after mask removal.
  • The findings suggest that BiPAP may cause more severe side effects, and the temperature changes in the face can be an effective way to monitor these adverse effects related to NIV use.
