... Physical activity has been demonstrated because to improve health parameters in PLWH. 4 We previously showed in a pilot study that a 12 week protocol consisting of three sessions per week of 60 min brisk walking at 65-75% of maximal heart rate with (strength-walk group) 30 min resistance training or without (walk group), improved physical performance, lipid profile, and inflammatory markers. 5 We assessed body composition and bone health in a subset of 25 cART-treated PLWH (Table S1) from this study [19/25 men, median age: 51 (Q1-Q3: 48-56) years; CD4 + : 576 (463-701)], with particular attention to the indicators of osteosarcopenia. Percentage of fat mass (FM), fat free mass (FFM) at arms, limbs, and as total body, and bone mineral density (BMD), t-score and z-score at spine (L3/L4), femoral neck, and trochanter were measured by DEXA (Lunar Prodigy, version 8.8, GE, Medical System Madison, WI). ...Context 2
... to the t-score, three participants were diagnosed with osteoporosis at BL (12%) and 20 (80%) with osteopenia. At the end of the training protocol, none of the participants improved the t-score (Table 1). Significant W12 increases from BL were observed in CTX in both training groups. ...Context 3
... W12 increases from BL were observed in CTX in both training groups. No significant changes were observed of BAP, OPG and RANKL level, and OPG/RANK ratio (Table 1). ...
