    Biological sex as a tailoring variable for exercise prescription in hospitalized older adults
    (Elsevier, 2024-09-27) López Sáez de Asteasu, Mikel; Martínez Velilla, Nicolás; Ramírez Vélez, Robinson; Zambom Ferraresi, Fabrício; Galbete Jiménez, Arkaitz; Lusa Cadore, Eduardo; Izquierdo Redín, Mikel; Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun Zientziak; Estadística, Informática y Matemáticas; Estatistika, Informatika eta Matematika; Gobierno de Navarra / Nafarroako Gobernua, 2186/2014
    Background. Sex-based differences in the clinical presentation and outcomes are well-established in patients hospitalized for geriatric syndromes. We aimed to investigate sex differences in response to in-hospital exercise on function, strength, cognition, and quality of life in acute care admissions. Methods. 570 patients (mean age 87 years, 298 females [52.3%]) admitted to acute care for elderly units were randomized to multicomponent exercise emphasizing progressive resistance training or usual care. Functional assessments included Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB), grip strength, Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), and health-related quality of life (EQ-VAS). Results. Exercising females showed more significant SPPB improvements than males (between-group difference 1.48 points, p = 0.027), exceeding the minimal clinically significant difference. While female participants significantly increased handgrip strength and male patients improved cognition after in-hospital exercise compared to the control group (all p < 0.001), no sex differences occurred. Conclusions. Females demonstrate more excellent physical function improvements compared to male older patients. Findings highlight the importance of tailored exercise incorporating patient factors like biological sex in geriatric medicine. Trial registration. NCT04600453

    Ejercicio físico en el anciano frágil: una manera eficaz de prevenir la dependencia
    (Universidad Europea de Madrid, 2014) Izquierdo Redín, Mikel; Lusa Cadore, Eduardo; Casas Herrero, Álvaro; Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun Zientziak
    Los beneficios del ejercicio físico en el envejecimiento y, específicamente, en la fragilidad han sido objeto de reciente investigación científica. En el anciano, la práctica de actividad física regular se asocia a una disminución del riesgo de mortalidad, de enfermedades crónicas, institucionalización, deterioro cognitivo y funcional. La práctica de ejercicio físico es la intervención más eficaz para retrasar la discapacidad y los eventos adversos que asocia habitualmente el síndrome de la fragilidad. De manera más concreta, el tipo de ejercicio físico más beneficioso en el anciano frágil es el denominado “entrenamiento multicomponente”. Este tipo de programas combina entrenamiento de fuerza, resistencia, equilibrio y marcha, y es con el que más mejorías se ha demostrado en la capacidad funcional, que es un elemento fundamental para el mantenimiento de la independencia en las actividades básicas de la vida diaria (ABVD) de los ancianos. Los objetivos deberían centrarse, por tanto, en mejorar dicha capacidad funcional a través de mejorías en el equilibrio y la marcha, así como mediante la disminución del riesgo y del número de caídas. Para la obtención de estos objetivos, el diseño de un programa de ejercicio físico en el anciano frágil debe acompañarse necesariamente de recomendaciones sobre variables tales como la intensidad, la potencia, el volumen y la frecuencia de entrenamiento ideales en esta población.

    Strength and endurance training prescription in healthy and frail elderly
    (International Society on Aging and Disease (ISOAD), 2014) Lusa Cadore, Eduardo; Pinto, Ronei Silveira; Bottaro, Martim; Izquierdo Redín, Mikel; Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun Zientziak
    Aging is associated with declines in the neuromuscular and cardiovascular systems, resulting in an impaired capacity to perform daily activities. Frailty is an age-associated biological syndrome characterized by decreases in the biological functional reserve and resistance to stressors due to changes in several physiological systems, which puts older individuals at special risk of disability. To counteract the neuromuscular and cardiovascular declines associated with aging, as well as to prevent and treat the frailty syndrome, the strength and endurance training seems to be an effective strategy to improve muscle hypertrophy, strength and power output, as well as endurance performance. The first purpose of this review was discuss the neuromuscular adaptations to strength training, as well as the cardiovascular adaptations to endurance training in healthy and frail elderly subjects. In addition, the second purpose of this study was investigate the concurrent training adaptations in the elderly. Based on the results found, the combination of strength and endurance training (i.e., concurrent training) performed at moderate volume and moderate to high intensity in elderly populations is the most effective way to improve both neuromuscular and cardiorespiratory functions. Moreover, exercise interventions that include muscle power training should be prescribed to frail elderly in order to improve the overall physical status of this population and prevent disability.

    Effects of different concurrent resistance and aerobic training frequencies on muscle power and muscle quality in trained elderly men: a randomized clinical trial
    (Aging and Disease, 2016) Ferrari, Rodrigo; Fuchs, Sandra C.; Kruel, Luiz Fernando Martins; Lusa Cadore, Eduardo; Alberton, Cristine Lima; Pinto, Ronei Silveira; Radaelli, Régis; Schoenell, Maira; Izquierdo Redín, Mikel; Tanaka, Hirofumi; Umpierre, Daniel; Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun Zientziak
    Muscle power is a strong predictor of functional status in the elderly population and is required to perform different daily activities. To compare the effects of different weekly training frequencies on muscle power and muscle quality induced by concurrent training (resistance + aerobic) in previously trained elderly men. Twenty-four trained elderly men (65 ± 4 years), previously engaged in a regular concurrent training program, three times per week, for the previous five months, were randomly allocated to concurrent training programs in which training was performed either twice a week (2·week-1, n = 12) or three times per week (3·week-1, n = 12). The groups trained with an identical exercise intensity and volume per session for 10 weeks. Before and after the exercise training, we examined muscle power, as estimated by countermovement jump height; knee extensor isokinetic peak torque at 60 and 180o.s-1; and muscle quality, a quotient between the one-repetition maximum of the knee extensors and the sum of quadriceps femoris muscle thickness determined by ultrasonography. Additionally, as secondary outcomes, blood pressure and reactive hyperemia were evaluated. Two-way ANOVA with repeated measures were used and statistical significance was set at α = 0.05. Muscular power (2·week-1: 7%, and 3·week-1: 10%) and muscle quality (2·week-1: 15%, and 3·week-1: 8%) improved with the concurrent exercise training (p < 0.001) but with no differences between groups. The isokinetic peak torque at 60 (2·week-1: 4%, and 3·week-1: 2%) and 180o.s-1 (2·week-1: 7%, and 3·week-1: 1%) increased in both groups (p = 0.036 and p=0.014, respectively). There were no changes in blood pressure or reactive hyperemia with the concurrent training. Concurrent training performed twice a week promotes similar adaptations in muscular power and muscle quality when compared with the same program performed three times per week in previously trained elderly men.
