Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of moderate continuous
training (MCT) and high intensity aerobic interval training (AIT) on systolic ventricular …

Abstract Background and Aim Both interval (IT) and continuous (CT) exercise training results
in an improvement of aerobic capacity in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary …

Background: Exercise is an important part of COPD treatment. However, it is not know about
the minimum effective time of physical training that could beneficially modify the cardiac …

Purpose: The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of the supervised pulmonary
rehabilitation programs consisting of either an interval or continuous aerobic exercise …

Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is associated with impaired
exercise tolerance, but it has not been established to what extent cardiac autonomic function …

Physical training is beneficial and should be included in the comprehensive management of
all patients with COPD independently of disease severity. Different rehabilitative strategies …

Introduction Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) exhibit aerobic
function, autonomic nervous system, and mucociliary clearance alterations. These …

Purpose: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease promotes systemic repercussions, which
can be minimized with physical exercise. This study investigated the effects of a water-based …

PURPOSE: To evaluate the impact of right ventricular dysfunction on exercise tolerance and
potential changes resulting from exercise training in patients with chronic obstructive …

Background Decreased exercise capacity in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
is incompletely explained by pulmonary pathologic and physiologic abnormalities. We …
