简要总结
the study was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of aerobic training for decreasing fatigue severity and increasing quality of life in elderly with idiopathic chronic
详细描述
idiopathic chronic fatigue (ICF) or chronic idiopathic fatigue (CIF), this type of tiredness is ongoing and unrelated to any underlying medical or mental health issues. Different diagnostic criteria apply to people with idiopathic chronic fatigue and those with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS).
Regular aerobic exercise has been demonstrated to improve cardiopulmonary fitness, increase physical activity levels, and decrease the degree of fatigue in elderly patients with severe idiopathic fatigue.

结局指标
主要结局
fatigue severity assessment scale
时间窗: 2 month will take pre and post total study peroid
Before and during the study period, the physical and mental weariness of both groups (A and B) was measured using a straightforward ten-item fatigue scale. The participants rated an etch statement from five categories, from never to always, using a scale. 1 denotes never, 2 occasionally, 3 regularly, 4 often and 5 always worn out. The greater figure denotes an extremely high degree of exhaustion and fatigue.
six mints walk test
时间窗: 2 monthes will take pre and post total study peroid
Before and during the study period, the aerobic capacity and endurance of both groups (A and B) were assessed using this sub-maximal test. The outcomes were compared to see how the performance capacity changed with walks lasting longer than six minutes.
Older People's Quality of Life Questionnaire (OPQOL-brief):
时间窗: 2 monthes will take pre and post total study peroid
Thirteen items make up the questionnaire; one item includes codes of Strongly agree (1), Agree (2), Neither (3), Disagree (4), and Strongly disagree (5). Positive items are reverse coded to indicate higher quality of life (QoL) with higher scores once all of the questions have been added up to give an overall OPQOL-Brief score.
Glutathione blood test:
时间窗: 2 monthes will take pre and post total study peroid
Glutathione is an antioxidant, a type of chemical which helps to boost the immune system as well as prevent and reverse cellular damage. Glutathione levels tend to decrease naturally with age as well as due to health conditions such as liver disease, insomnia, and chronic disease.Before and after the study period, venous blood was taken from both groups (A and B) at baseline when they were not fasting. Tandem mass spectroscopy was used to analyse the samples and determine the degree of serum changes in both study groups based on their respective treatment.
