C.; ALMEIDA, K. M.; SILVA, M.; LAFER, B.- Structured physical exercise for bipolar depression: an open-label, proof-of concept study(2023) LAFER, Beny; DUARTE, Cicera Claudinea; GREVE, Julia Maria D'Andrea; SILVA, Paulo Roberto dos Santos; ALMEIDA, Karla Mathias de; BELIZARIO, Gabriel Okawa; NEVES, Lucas MeloBackgroundPhysical exercise (PE) is a recommended lifestyle intervention for different mental disorders and has shown specific positive therapeutic effects in unipolar depressive disorder. Considering the similar symptomatology of the depressive phase in patients with bipolar disorder (BD) and unipolar depressive disorder, it is reasonable to suggest that PE may also be beneficial for bipolar depression. However, there is an absence of studies evaluating the antidepressant effect of a structured PE intervention in BD.MethodsThis is an open-label, single-arm study trial. Fifteen patients with a diagnosis of BD Type I or Type II, presenting a depressive episode were included in the study. After physical and functional evaluation, patients participated in supervised training sessions with aerobics followed by strength exercises, three times per week, for 12 weeks (36 training sessions). Depressive and manic symptoms were assessed at baseline and 2, 4, 8, and 12 weeks. Additionally, quality of Life and functioning were assessed at baseline and 4, 8, and 12 weeks). Finally, we tested cardiorespiratory fitness, muscle strength and body composition at baseline and week-12.ResultsThe mean (+/- SD) Montgomery Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) score at baseline was 23.6 +/- 8.3 points and after 12 weeks of PE the mean score was 10.2 +/- 4.8 points. Nine patients (82%) presented an antidepressant response defined as a reduction of more than 50% of depressive symptoms at week 12 with five of those patients (45%) presenting criteria for full remission. A large and significant Cohen's D Effect Size (pre-post) was verified for MADRS reduction [1.98 (95% Confidence interval = 0.88 to 3.08)]. We did not detect a significant change in manic symptoms, functioning, and quality of life during the 12-week follow-up. At week-12, all patients increased their muscular strength (one repetition maximal test - 1RM) and reduced the percentage of body fat (spectral bioelectrical impedance analysis).ConclusionsThis study, using rigorous criteria and a structured intervention, provides valid pilot data, showing the feasibility of a structured PE intervention for the treatment of depressive symptoms in BD, and suggesting a potential adjunctive antidepressant effect. Moreover, PE showed a positive impact on muscle strength and body composition. This should be further verified by randomized controlled studies.
bookPart Exercício físico e promoção de saúde mental(2021) SCHUCH, Felipe Barreto; ALMEIDA, Karla Mathias de; DUARTE, Cícera; NEVES, Lucas Melo; LAFER, Beny- Effect of 12-week rehearsal on cardiorespiratory fitness and body composition in Brazilian samba dancers(2023) DUARTE, Cicera Claudinea; SANTOS-SILVA, Paulo Roberto; PALUDO, Ana Carolina; GRECCO, Marcus Vinicius; GREVE, Julia Maria D'AndreaObjective: To investigate the effect of 12 weeks of rehearsals on cardiorespiratory parameters and body composition in Brazilian samba dancers belonging to a first-league samba school.Methods: Twenty-six women were divided into a Samba Group (n=13) and a Control Group (n=13). Cardiorespiratory parameters (cardiopulmonary exercise test) and body composition (skinfold assessment) were assessed before and after the 12 weeks of rehearsals. The Samba Group rehearsed three times per week for 30-60 minutes, and the Control Group participated in no physical activity. A comparison test was performed within and between groups, with p<0.05 indicating statistical significance.Results: Compared with the Control Group, the Samba Group showed a significant increase in maximal oxygen uptake (19%), oxygen pulse (13%), and lean body mass (3%) and a decrease in body fat percentage (11%) and fat mass (12%).Conclusion: Twelve weeks of samba dance rehearsals improved the cardiorespiratory and body composition parameters in women dancers compared with the Control Group. These findings suggest that dancing samba regularly can increase physical activity levels and positively affect the health parameters of samba dancers.
