Article Synopsis
  • Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease that causes periods of illness and can damage vital organs, affecting patients' quality of life.
  • This study examined the impact of a 12-week whole-body vibration exercise program on fatigue, functional ability, and quality of life in women with SLE who are on chronic glucocorticoid treatment.
  • Results showed that women in the whole-body vibration exercise group experienced a significant reduction in fatigue and improved functional ability compared to those in the isometry group, suggesting that this exercise method could be beneficial for managing SLE symptoms.

Article Synopsis
  • This systematic review examined how whole body vibration (WBV) exercise can help manage health issues related to cancer therapies by analyzing studies published until February 2017.
  • Four studies were reviewed, focusing on various cancer types, with two studies rated as having high evidence and methodological quality, exploring outcomes like muscle strength and quality of life.
  • While WBV exercise shows promise for alleviating cancer-related symptoms, more research is needed to establish specific exercise protocols for different disease stages.
