Abstract Background Supplemental oxygen during exercise training is used to increase the training effect of an exercise program in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) who show exercise-induced desaturation. Exercise-induced desaturation is not clearly defined in the guidelines; however, it is generally defined in clinical studies as a decrease in SpO2 of more than 4% from rest or a decrease to less than 88% during exercise. Although some meta-analyses examined the effectiveness of supplemental oxygen during exercise training, these studies concluded that it does not further improve exercise tolerance compared to exercise training alone. However, supplemental oxygen during exercise training may be effective in improving exercise tolerance in COPD patients with severe exercise-induced desaturation. Therefore, this study will be performed to elucidate the effectiveness of supplemental oxygen during exercise training and the relationship between its effectiveness and severity of exercise-induced desaturation at baseline. Methods We will first assess the effectiveness of supplemental oxygen during exercise training in COPD. The main outcome is the change in exercise tolerance before and after the intervention, indicated by the 6-min walking distance, the walking distance, or the walking time in incremental shuttle walking test, and analyzed as the standardized mean difference (SMD). The quality and risk of bias in individual studies will be assessed using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) system and risk-of-bias tool (RoB ver.2). If statistical heterogeneity in terms of the effectiveness of exercise tolerance is shown, we will conduct meta-regression analyses to examine the association between the effectiveness of exercise training with supplemental oxygen and severity of exercise-induced desaturation at baseline. Discussion One strength of this study is that it is a systematic review with meta-regression analysis to elucidate the effectiveness of supplemental oxygen during exercise training in patients with COPD who show severe exercise-induced desaturation. Furthermore, we will assess the severity of exercise-induced desaturation for which exercise training with supplemental oxygen is effective, the influence of acute effects at baseline, and the effect of supplemental oxygen on adverse events.

Background:Growing evidence argue for a role of the gut in the pathophysiology of various chronic rheumatic diseases such as spondyloarthritis (SpA). This so-called “gut-joint axis” involves dysbiosis, bacterial translocation, intestinal inflammation and increase in intestinal permeability. Recent data from clinical and basic research suggested that the integrity of the intestinal barrier might be a key determinant in translating autoimmunity to inflammation, making intestinal permeability a potential marker or a target for future therapies.Objectives:To analyse the available data on intestinal permeability in SpA patients and the effects of drugs such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) on intestinal permeability.Methods:A systematic review was conducted. Without date restriction, the following databases were searched through September 1, 2020: Medline, Embase and Cochrane. Studies with patients with SpA assessing the intestinal permeability were selected. Some of the included studies have assessed the effect of NSAIDs on intestinal permeability.Results:A total of 12 studies were included in the final analysis. The 12 studies involved a total of 268 SpA patients, including 240 ankylosing spondylitis (AS). Among the studies included, four studies used the lactulose/mannitol test, four studies used the 51Cr-ethylenediaminetetraacetic test and two studies used the polyethylene glycols test. Nine of the 12 studies reported increased intestinal permeability regardless on the method used for intestinal permeability evaluation. Four studies evaluated the link between disease activity, assessed by CRP and ESR levels, and intestinal permeability and showed no correlation between increased intestinal permeability and markers of disease activity in AS patients. As regards the effects of NSAIDs on intestinal permeability, data are controversial. Two studies, including one evaluating indomethacin, did not show any influence of NSAIDs in AS patients, one study showed an increase in intestinal permeability under NSAIDs in only 60% of the patients, another study reported increased intestinal permeability. When comparing the effect of NSAIDs in patients with AS to healthy subjects, one study reported a comparable NSAIDs-induced increase in intestinal permeability in both groups.Conclusion:The results of our review suggest that increased intestinal permeability is present in SpA patients even in the absence of NSAIDs use and regardless of the method used to assess intestinal permeability. The effects of NSAIDs on intestinal permeability in SpA patients is more controversial and further studies are needed to clarify them.Disclosure of Interests:None declared

Due to the high metabolic and physical demands in single-stage one-day ultra-trail (SOUT) races, athletes should be properly prepared in both physical and nutritional aspects in order to delay fatigue and avoid associated difficulties. However, high carbohydrate (CHO) intake would seem to increase gastrointestinal (GI) problems. The main purpose of this systematic review was to evaluate CHO intake during SOUT events as well as its relationship with fatigue (in terms of internal exercise load, exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD) and post-exercise recovery) and GI problems. A structured search was carried out in accordance with PRISMA guidelines in the following: Web of Science, Cochrane Library and Scopus databases up to 16 March 2021. After conducting the search and applying the inclusion/exclusion criteria, eight articles in total were included in this systematic review, in all of which CHO intake involved gels, energy bars and sports drinks. Two studies associated higher CHO consumption (120 g/h) with an improvement in internal exercise load. Likewise, these studies observed that SOUT runners whose intake was 120 g/h could benefit by limiting the EIMD observed by CK (creatine kinase), LDH (lactate dehydrogenase) and GOT (aspartate aminotransferase), and also improve recovery of high intensity running capacity 24 h after a trail marathon. In six studies, athletes had GI symptoms between 65–82%. In summary, most of the runners did not meet CHO intake standard recommendations for SOUT events (90 g/h), while athletes who consumed more CHO experienced a reduction in internal exercise load, limited EIMD and improvement in post-exercise recovery. Conversely, the GI symptoms were recurrent in SOUT athletes depending on altitude, environmental conditions and running speed. Therefore, a high CHO intake during SOUT events is important to delay fatigue and avoid GI complications, and to ensure high intake, it is necessary to implement intestinal training protocols.

ABSTRACT One of hypothetical mechanisms related to cognition is exercise-induced IGF-1. Objective: The aim of this study was to analyze the effects of exercise on IGF-1 levels and cognition in the elderly. Methods: The article searches were conducted on Pubmed, Web of Science, PsycINFO and Scielo databases and reviewed according to PRISMA guidelines. The inclusion criteria were: [1] original articles published up to 2017; [2] samples including elderly; [3] protocols including physical exercise; [4] longitudinal studies having exercise as main outcome; [5] assessment of IGF-1; [6] cognition assessment. Results: Seven studies were included in this review. Three of the studies showed an exercise-induced increase in IGF-1; three found stable IGF-1 levels and one found a reduction in IGF-1; with and without improvement in cognition. Conclusion: Disparities in the type of physical exercise, protocols and samples under different conditions hinder the establishment of a consensus on IGF-1, cognition and physical exercise.
