Background: An important component of secondary prevention of CVD (including HF) is comprehensive cardiac rehab, including exercise. Novel, individualised approaches are needed to increase uptake and adherence to exercise programmes, one area offering potential is HIIT. HIIT has been shown to be both safe and effective for improving cardiovascular fitness in both coronary artery disease and HF patients.
Objectives: To provide a current and up to date evaluation of the physiological and psychological outcomes of HIIT in patients with HF compared to MCT and UC. Secondly to perform sub-group analyses comparing short and long HIIT protocols.
Methods: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials was undertaken. Medline, Embase, Scopus, CINAHL and SportDISCUS were searched up to July 2022. Trials were included if they carried out a HIIT intervention (defined at intensity ≥ 80% peak HR or ≥ 80% VO2) in HF patients (HFpEF or HFrEF) for at least 6 weeks. Comparator group was UC or MCT.
Results: HIIT was shown to be superior to MCT and UC for improving VO (HIIT mean improvement 3.1 mL.kgmin). HITT was superior to MCT and UC for improving LVEF (HIIT mean improvement 5.7%). HIIT was superior to MCT and UC for improving HRQoL, using the MLHFQ (HIIT mean point change of -12.8). Subgroup analysis showed no difference between long and short HIIT.
Conclusion: HIIT improves VO, LVEF and HRQoL in patients with HF, the improvements seen in VO and LVEF are superior in HIIT compared to MCT and UC.

Objectives: This study aimed to determine the effect of 8-week high-intensity interval training (HIIT) on oxidative stress and apoptosis in the hippocampus of male rats with type 2 diabetes (T2D). The study focused on examining the role of proliferator-activated receptor gamma co-activator 1α (PGC1α)/Kelch-like ECH-associated protein Keap1/nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) signaling pathway.
Materials And Methods: Twenty-eight 8-week-old Wistar rats were randomly assigned to one of four groups (n=7): control (Con), type 2 diabetes (T2D), exercise (Ex), and exercise + type 2 diabetes (Ex+T2D).

Background: This work focused on the correlation between insulin resistance (IR) and blood lipids (BL) in children with simple obesity, as well as the intervention effects of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) in weight loss in children.
Methods: 80 children aged 6 to 17 years with simple obesity were selected from our hospital and randomly grouped into two groups. Children in the control (Ctrl) group underwent traditional moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT), while those in the other group received HIIT (HIIT group).
