    (2014) MATTAR, Melina Andrade; GUALANO, Bruno; ROSCHEL, Hamilton; PERANDINI, Luiz Augusto; DASSOUKI, Thalita; LIMA, Fernanda Rodrigues; SHINJO, Samuel Katsuyuki; PINTO, Ana Lucia de Sa
    Objectives: A growing number of studies have suggested that exercise may promote therapeutic effects in patients with idiopathic inflammatory myopathy. This prospective case series study aimed to report on the effects of exercise in patients with persistent active myositis. Methods: Three patients with persistent active polymyositis were submitted to a 12-week supervised exercise program comprising both aerobic and strength exercises. Results: After the intervention, the patients presented improvements in selected parameters of muscle function and aerobic conditioning. In addition, an overall improvement was detected in the quality of life, as measured by both the 36-item Short-Form Health Survey and the Health Assessment Questionnaire questionnaires. Importantly, exercise did not increase serum levels of creatine kinase and aldolase. Conclusions: The findings herein suggest that a combined aerobic and strength training program may be tolerable and potentially effective in improving muscle function, aerobic conditioning, and quality of life in patients with persistent active polymyositis.

    Safety and possible effects of low-intensity resistance training associated with partial blood flow restriction in polymyositis and dermatomyositis
    (2014) MATTAR, Melina Andrade; GUALANO, Bruno; PERANDINI, Luiz Augusto; SHINJO, Samuel Katsuyuki; LIMA, Fernanda Rodrigues; SA-PINTO, Ana Lucia; ROSCHEL, Hamilton
    Introduction: Our aim was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a low-intensity resistance training program combined with partial blow flow restriction (BFR training) in a cohort of patients with polymyositis (PM) and dermatomyositis (DM). Methods: In total, 13 patients with PM and DM completed a 12-week twice a week low-intensity (that is, 30% one-repetition-maximum (1RM)) resistance exercise training program combined with partial blood flow restriction (BFR). Assessments of muscle strength, physical function, quadriceps cross sectional (CSA) area, health-related quality of life, and clinical and laboratory parameters were assessed at baseline and after the intervention. Results: The BFR training program was effective in increasing the maximal dynamic strength in both the leg-press (19.6%, P < 0.001) and knee-extension exercises (25.2% P < 0.001), as well as in the timed-stands (15.1%, P < 0.001) and timed-up-and-go test (-4.5%, P = 0.002). Quadriceps CSA was also significantly increased after the intervention (4.57%, P = 0.01). Similarly, all of the components of the Short Form-36 Health Survey, the Health Assessment Questionnaire scores, and the patient-and physician reported Visual Analogue Scale were significantly improved after training (P < 0.05). Importantly, no clinical evidence or any other self-reported adverse event were found. Laboratory parameters (creatine kinase and aldolase) were also unchanged (P > 0.05) after the intervention. Conclusions: We demonstrated that a 12-week supervised low-intensity resistance training program associated with partial blood flow restriction may be safe and effective in improving muscle strength and function as well as muscle mass and health-related quality of life in patients with PM and DM.

    Quality of life, fatigue, sleep quality, and mental health in systemic lupus erythematosus patients with a high cardiovascular risk profile
    (2023) MAZZOLANI, Bruna Caruso; SMAIRA, Fabiana Infante; SIECZKOWSKA, Sofia; ROMERO, Marina; RIBEIRO, Thaina Toledo; AMARANTE, Milla Cordeiro; PASOTO, Sandra; PINTO, Ana Lucia de Sa; LIMA, Fernanda Rodrigues; BENATTI, Fabiana Braga; BONFA, Eloisa; ROSCHEL, Hamilton; GUALANO, Bruno
    Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients report worse health-related quality of life (HRQL), fatigue, anxiety, depression, and sleep quality, when compared to the general population and other chronic diseases. Furthermore, cardiometabolic diseases are highly prevalent in SLE and are also associated with these parameters. Thus, it is plausible to suggest that SLE patients with a high cardiovascular risk may report worse results for these parameters. The aim of the study is to describe HRQL, fatigue, anxiety and depression symptoms, and sleep quality in a sample of SLE patients with a high cardiovascular risk profile (i.e., BMI between 25 and 40 kg/m2 and/or dyslipidemia, hypertension, or diabetes). This was a cross-sectional study where patients were assessed for (i) demographic, anthropometric, and disease-related parameters, (ii) HRQL, (iii) fatigue, (iv) anxiety and depression symptoms, and (v) sleep quality. One-hundred patients completed the study; however, only 87 patients were assessed for sleep quality data. Patients averaged 41.7 & PLUSMN; 9 years, and most patients were classified as overweight/obese (87%). SF-36 scores for physical and mental components summary were 51.3 & PLUSMN; 9.6 and 54.2 & PLUSMN; 15.6, respectively, with ""bodily pain"" and ""role emotional"" presenting the lower scores. The total SLEQOL score was 105.1 & PLUSMN; 42.0, with lower scores reported for ""self-image"" and ""mood."" Fatigue score was 30.8 & PLUSMN; 8.9, and 78% and 93% reported severe symptoms of anxiety and depression, respectively. The average sleep effectiveness was 82.9 & PLUSMN; 6.6%. Sleep latency, total time in bed (TTiB), and total sleep time (TST) were 8.4 & PLUSMN; 8.9, 495.8 & PLUSMN; 79.7, and 409.7 & PLUSMN; 69.9 min, respectively. Patients reported an average of 17.8 & PLUSMN; 6.2 WE, with 4.5 & PLUSMN; 1.5 min duration and a WASO of 77.7 & PLUSMN; 36.6 min. Despite similar HRQL, fatigue, and sleep quality parameters to those reported by other SLE populations, SLE patients with a high cardiovascular risk had a higher prevalence of depression and anxiety. Understanding SLE patients' quality of life and psychological symptoms is of utmost importance to improve disease management. The findings of this study highlight the need for more intensive and global care regarding mental health when considering a high cardiovascular risk in SLE.

    The effects of exercise on lipid profile in systemic lupus erythematosus and healthy individuals: a randomized trial
    (2015) BENATTI, Fabiana Braga; MIOSSI, Renata; PASSARELI, Marisa; NAKANDAKARE, Edna R.; PERANDINI, Luiz; LIMA, Fernanda Rodrigues; ROSCHEL, Hamilton; BORBA, Eduardo; BONFA, Eloisa; GUALANO, Bruno; PINTO, Ana Lucia de Sa
    The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of an exercise training program on lipid profile and composition of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) subfractions in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients and healthy controls. A 12-week, randomized trial was conducted. Thirty-three physically inactive SLE patients were randomly assigned into two groups: trained (SLE-TR, n = 17) and non-trained (SLE-NT, n = 16). A gender-, BMI-, and age-matched healthy control groups (C-TR, n = 11) also underwent the exercise program. Subjects were assessed at baseline (Pre) and 12 weeks after the 3-month exercise training program (Post) for lipid profile (HDL, low-density lipoprotein, very low-density lipoprotein, and total cholesterol and triglycerides levels) and composition of the HDL subfractions HDL2 and HDL3. SLE patients showed significantly lower contents of Apo A-I, phospholipid, and triglyceride in the HDL3 subfraction (p < 0.05, between-group comparisons) than healthy controls at baseline. The exercise training program did not affect any of the parameters in the SLE-TR group (p > 0.05, within-group comparisons), although there was a trend toward decreased circulating Apo B levels (p = 0.06, ES = -0.3, within-group comparison). In contrast, the same exercise training program was effective in increasing contents of cholesterol, triglyceride, and phospholipid in the HDL2 subfraction in the C-TR group (p = 0.036, ES = 2.06; p = 0.038, ES = 1.77; and p = 0.0021, ES = 2.37, respectively, within-group comparisons), whereas no changes were observed in the composition of the HDL3 subfraction. This study showed that SLE patients have a less effective response to a 12-week exercise training program than healthy individuals, with regard to lipid profile and chemical composition of HDL subfractions. These results reinforce the need for further studies to define the optimal training protocol to improve lipid profile and particularly the HDL composition in these patients (registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT01515163).

    Effect of creatine supplementation on measured glomerular filtration rate in postmenopausal women
    (2011) NEVES JR., Manoel; GUALANO, Bruno; ROSCHEL, Hamilton; LIMA, Fernanda Rodrigues; SA-PINTO, Ana Lucia de; SEGURO, Antonio Carlos; SHIMIZU, Maria Heloisa; SAPIENZA, Marcelo Tatit; FULLER, Ricardo; LANCHA JR., Antonio Herbert; BONFA, Eloisa
    We aimed to investigate whether creatine supplementation affects the measured glomerular filtration rate in postmenopausal women (age, 58 +/- 3 years). Subjects were randomly assigned to receive either creatine (20 g(.)day(-1) for 1 week and 5 g(.)day(-1) thereafter) or a placebo. Kidney function was assessed at baseline and after 12 weeks. [Cr-51] EDTA clearance remained unchanged (CR-PRE: 86.16 +/- 14.36 mL(.)min(-1) per 1.73 m(2), POST: 87.25 +/- 17.60 mL(.)min(-1) per 1.73 m(2); PL-PRE: 85.15 +/- 8.54 mL(.)min(-1) per 1.73 m(2), POST: 87.18 +/- 9.64 mL(.)min(-1) per 1.73 m(2); p = 0.81). Thus, we concluded that creatine supplementation does not affect glomerular filtration rate in postmenopausal women.

    Ultra-processed food consumption associates with higher cardiovascular risk in rheumatoid arthritis
    (2020) SMAIRA, Fabiana Infante; MAZZOLANI, Bruna Caruso; PECANHA, Tiago; SANTOS, Kamila Meireles dos; REZENDE, Diego Augusto Nunes; ARAUJO, Maria Eugenia; BONFIGLIOLI, Karina; SCAGLIUSI, Fernanda Baeza; BENATTI, Fabiana Braga; PINTO, Ana Lucia de Sa; LIMA, Fernanda Rodrigues; PEREIRA, Rosa Maria R.; ROSCHEL, Hamilton; GUALANO, Bruno; PINTO, Ana Jessica
    To investigate the association between food consumption stratified by processing level and cardiovascular risk factors in rheumatoid arthritis. In this cross-sectional study, 56 patients (age: 62.5 +/- 7.9 years, BMI: 28.4 +/- 5.1 kg/m(2)) had food consumption evaluated according to the processing level (e.g., unprocessed or minimally processed foods, processed foods, and ultra-processed foods) and associated with cardiovascular risk factors. The most prevalent food processing level was unprocessed or minimally processed foods (42.6 +/- 12.6% of total energy intake [TEI]), followed by processed (24.2 +/- 11.9%TEI), ultra-processed (18.1 +/- 11.8%TEI), and culinary ingredients (15.1 +/- 6.4%TEI). Adjusted regression models showed that higher consumption of ultra-processed foods was positively associated with Framingham risk score (beta = 0.06, CI: 95% 0.001, 0.11, p = 0.045) and glycated hemoglobin (beta = 0.04, CI: 95% 0.01, 0.08, p = 0.021). In contrast, higher consumption of unprocessed or minimally processed foods was associated with lower 10-year risk of developing cardiovascular diseases (beta = -0.05, CI: 95% - 0.09, -0.003, p = 0.021) and LDL (beta = -1.09, CI: 95% - 1.94, -0.24, p = 0.013). Patients with rheumatoid arthritis consuming more ultra-processed foods showed worse metabolic profile, whereas those consuming more unprocessed or minimally processed foods had lower cardiovascular risks. A food pattern characterized by a high ultra-processed food consumption appears to emerge as a novel, modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular diseases in rheumatoid arthritis.

    Beneficial Effect of Creatine Supplementation in Knee Osteoarthritis
    (2011) NEVES JR., Manoel; GUALANO, Bruno; ROSCHEL, Hamilton; FULLER, Ricardo; BENATTI, Fabiana Braga; PINTO, Ana Lucia De Sa; LIMA, Fernanda Rodrigues; PEREIRA, Rosa Maria; LANCHA JR., Antonio Herbert; BONFA, Eloisa
    NEVES JR., M., B. GUALANO, H. ROSCHEL, R. FULLER, F. B. BENATTI, A. L. DE SA PINTO, F. R. LIMA, R. M. PEREIRA, A. H. LANCHA JR., E. BONFA. Beneficial Effect of Creatine Supplementation in Knee Osteoarthritis. Med. Sci. Sports Exerc., Vol. 43, No. 8, pp. 1538-1543, 2011. Introduction: The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy of creatine (CR) supplementation combined with strengthening exercises in knee osteoarthritis (OA). Methods: A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was performed. Postmenopausal women with knee OA were allocated to receive either CR (20 g.d(-1) for 1 wk and 5 g.d(-1) thereafter) or placebo (PL) and were enrolled in a lower limb resistance training program. They were assessed at baseline (PRE) and after 12 wk (POST). The primary outcome was the physical function as measured by the timed-stands test. Secondary outcomes included lean mass, quality of life, pain, stiffness, and muscle strength. Results: Physical function was significantly improved only in the CR group (P = 0.006). In addition, a significant between-group difference was observed (CR: PRE = 15.7 +/- 1.4, POST = 18.1 +/- 1.8; PL: PRE = 15.0 +/- 1.8, POST = 15.2 +/- 1.2; P = 0.004). The CR group also presented improvements in physical function and stiffness subscales as evaluated by the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (P = 0.005 and P = 0.024, respectively), whereas the PL group did not show any significant changes in these parameters (P > 0.05). In addition, only the CR group presented a significant improvement in lower limb lean mass (P = 0.04) as well as in quality of life (P = 0.01). Both CR and PL groups demonstrated significant reductions in pain (P G 0.05). Similarly, a main effect for time revealed an increase in leg-press one-repetition maximum (P = 0.005) with no significant differences between groups (P = 0.81). Conclusions: CR supplementation improves physical function, lower limb lean mass, and quality of life in postmenopausal women with knee OA undergoing strengthening exercises.

    Acute physical exercise is safe in patients with primary antiphospholipid syndrome with exclusive venous thrombosis and under oral anticoagulation with warfarin
    (2014) GARCIA, Carolina Borges; SEGURO, Luciana Parente Costa; PERANDINI, Luiz Augusto; PINTO, Ana Lucia de Sa; LIMA, Fernanda Rodrigues; NEGRAO, Carlos Eduardo; BONFA, Eloisa; BORBA, Eduardo Ferreira
    The purpose of present study was to evaluate the effects of maximal acute physical exercise on prothrombin time/international normalized ratio (PT/INR) in patients with primary antiphospholipid syndrome (PAPS) under oral anticoagulation with warfarin and the safety of acute exercise in regard to thrombosis and bleeding risk. Eighteen physically inactive women with PAPS (Sydney criteria) with exclusive venous events and without thrombocytopenia were included. All patients were under stable warfarin therapy (PT/INR target: 2.0-3.0). Eighteen age-matched healthy sedentary women without thrombosis/bleeding disorders were selected as controls. All subjects performed a maximal exercise test, and capillary blood samples were obtained pre-, post- and at 1-h post-exercise (recovery time) for PT/INR analysis using a portable CoaguCheck. PAPS patients and controls had similar mean age (31.50 +/- A 8.06 vs. 29.61 +/- A 7.05 years, p = 0.46) and body mass index (24.16 +/- A 3.67 vs. 24.66 +/- A 2.71 kg/m(2), p = 0.65). PAPS had a mild but significant increase in PT/INR value at 1-h post-exercise (recovery) compared with pre- (2.33 +/- A 0.34 vs. 2.26 +/- A 0.29, p = 0.001) and post-exercise (2.33 +/- A 0.34 vs. 2.26 +/- A 0.32, p = 0.001) that was observed in 61.11 % of these patients. None of the subjects had thrombotic or bleeding complications related to the acute exercise. Acute exercise in patients with PAPS with exclusive venous thrombosis was safe with a minor increase in PT/INR. This is an important step to introduce regular exercise training as a therapeutic tool in the management of these patients.
