Exercise Could Reduce Hospitalizations For COPD Patients
Researchers had a group of women with ME/CFS/FMS, a group of women with rheumatoid arthritis (RA,) and a group of healthy women exercise on a bicycle and looked at several measures of pain before and after the sessions. Half of them received a placebo while the others were given the pain drug paracetamol . Exertion levels were below maximums and exercise sessions were a full week apart. Their analysis showed: The RA group had reductions in pain after exercise, both with the drug and with the placebo; In the ME/CFS/FMS placebo group, some measures showed worsening pain while other measures were in conclusive but seemed to indicate worsening; In the ME/CFS/FMS paracetamol group, some people had a decrease in pain measurements, but the decrease was not significant. By comparing two chronic pain populations, researchers are able to show that the different response between the ME/CFS/FMS group and healthy controls are not merely due to the presence of chronic pain.

Cristobal Esteban said in a statement. “Indeed, even a low level of PA such as walking a minimum of two hours per week has been associated with decreased risk of hospitalization for exacerbated COPD.” The study, published in the journal Respirology , included 543 people with COPD; researchers calculated their physical activity levels by asking them how far they walked a day, for at least three days a week. They followed up with the participants at least http://www.sbwire.com/press-releases/p90x3-reviews/sbwire-455028.htm two years later. Researchers found that those who maintained low physical activity levels had a higher rate of hospitalization. Meanwhile, those who had high physical activity levels at the start of the study but who decreased their exercise levels throughout the study also had a higher hospitalization rate.
