          Exercise training after lung transplantation improves participation in daily activity: a randomized controlled trial.

          The effects of exercise training after lung transplantation have not been studied in a randomized controlled trial so far. We investigated whether 3 months of supervised training, initiated immediately after hospital discharge, improve functional recovery and cardiovascular morbidity of patients up to 1 year after lung transplantation. Patients older than 40 years, who experienced an uncomplicated postoperative period, were eligible for this single blind, parallel group study. Sealed envelopes were used to randomly allocate patients to 3 months of exercise training (n = 21) or a control intervention (n = 19). Minutes of daily walking time (primary outcome), physical fitness, quality of life and cardiovascular morbidity were compared between groups adjusting for baseline assessments in a mixed models analysis. After 1 year daily walking time in the treated patients (n = 18) was 85 ± 27 min and in the control group (n = 16) 54 ± 30 min (adjusted difference 26 min [95%CI 8-45 min, p = 0.006]). Quadriceps force (p = 0.001), 6-minute walking distance (p = 0.002) and self-reported physical functioning (p = 0.039) were significantly higher in the intervention group. Average 24 h ambulatory blood pressures were significantly lower in the treated patients (p ≤ 0.01). Based on these results patients should be strongly encouraged to participate in an exercise training intervention after lung transplantation. © Copyright 2012 The American Society of Transplantation and the American Society of Transplant Surgeons.

            Low physical activity and risk of cardiovascular and all-cause mortality in renal transplant recipients.

            Low physical activity (PA) is a risk factor for mortality in the general population. This is largely unexplored in renal transplant recipients (RTRs). We studied whether PA is associated with cardiovascular and all-cause mortality in a prospective cohort of RTR. Between 2001 and 2003, 540 RTRs were studied (age, 51 ± 12 years; 54% male). PA was assessed using validated questionnaires (Tecumseh Occupational Activity Questionnaire and the Minnesota Leisure Time Physical Activity Questionnaire). Cardiovascular and all-cause mortality were recorded until August 2007. Independent of age, PA was inversely associated with metabolic syndrome, history of cardiovascular disease, fasting insulin, and triglyceride concentration, and positively associated with kidney function and 24-hour urinary creatinine excretion (i.e., muscle mass). During follow-up for 5.3 years (range, 4.7 to 5.7 years), 81 RTRs died, with 37 cardiovascular deaths. Cardiovascular mortality was 11.7, 7.2, and 1.7%, respectively, according to gender-stratified tertiles of PA (P=0.001). All-cause mortality was 24.4, 15.0, and 5.6% according to these tertiles (P<0.001). In Cox regression analyses, adjustment for potential confounders including history of cardiovascular disease, muscle mass, and traditional risk factors for cardiovascular disease did not materially change these associations. Low PA is strongly associated with increased risk for cardiovascular and all-cause mortality in RTRs. Intervention studies are necessary to investigate whether PA improves long-term survival after renal transplantation. © 2011 by the American Society of Nephrology

              Aerobic or Resistance Training and Pulse Wave Velocity in Kidney Transplant Recipients: A 12-Week Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial (the Exercise in Renal Transplant [ExeRT] Trial).

              Cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of death in kidney transplant recipients. This pilot study examined the potential effect of aerobic training or resistance training on vascular health and indexes of cardiovascular risk in kidney transplant recipients.
