Abstract
Background/objective: Anaerobic exercise capacity is an important component of performing daily activities during childhood. However, diminished anaerobic exercise capacity has been reported in children with chronic conditions. Therefore, the aim of this study was to compare anaerobic exercise capacities between children with familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) and healthy peers.
Methods: Twenty-one children with FMF (FMF group) and 21 physically matched healthy controls (control group) were included. Peak power, peak power/kg, average power, and average power were evaluated using the Wingate Anaerobic Test.
Results: The peak power (FMF group: 254.8 W [IQR 25/75: 216.4/293.0 W] vs control group: 333.7 W [IQR 25/75: 241.3/570.5 W], p = 0.009), peak power/kg (FMF group: 6.3 W/kg [IQR 25/75: 5.2/7.0 W/kg] vs control group: 7.0 W/kg [IQR 25/75: 6.1/8.6 W/kg], p = 0.046), average power (FMF group: 186.0 W [IQR 25/75: 164.3/211.2 W] vs control group: 231.8 W [IQR 25/75: 181.8/338.1 W], p = 0.006), and average power/kg (FMF group: 4.5 W/kg [IQR 25/75: 3.8/5.0 W/kg] vs control group: 5.1 W/kg [IQR 25/75: 4.2/5.9 W/kg], p = 0.040) were found significantly higher in the control group compared with FMF group.
Conclusions: Children with FMF seems to have diminished anaerobic exercise capacity compared with their healthy peers.
期刊介绍:
ACS Applied Bio Materials is an interdisciplinary journal publishing original research covering all aspects of biomaterials and biointerfaces including and beyond the traditional biosensing, biomedical and therapeutic applications.
The journal is devoted to reports of new and original experimental and theoretical research of an applied nature that integrates knowledge in the areas of materials, engineering, physics, bioscience, and chemistry into important bio applications. The journal is specifically interested in work that addresses the relationship between structure and function and assesses the stability and degradation of materials under relevant environmental and biological conditions.
