Effect of Aerobic Interval Training With Vitamin D Supplement on Functional Capacity and Perceived Myalgia
- Conditions
- Vitamin D Deficiency
- Interventions
- Drug: Vitamin D supplementation onlyOther: aerobic interval training and Vitamin D supplementation,Other: aerobic interval training only
- Registration Number
- NCT04319289
- Lead Sponsor
- Cairo University
- Brief Summary
This study aimed to investigate whether there will be an effect of adding a program of aerobic interval training in managing patients suffering from myalgia associated with vitamin D deficiency.
- Detailed Description
Forty five women complaining from myalgia with vitamin D deficiency participating in this study. Their ages are ranged from 30 to 40 years.
They are assigned randomly into three groups:
* Group (A): included 15 patients who are participating in an aerobic interval training exercise program with vitamin D supplementation (cholecalciferol 400 IU/day).
* Group (B): included 15 patients who are receiving vitamin D supplementation only (cholecalciferol 400 IU/day).
* Group (C): included 15 patients who are participating in an interval training exercise program only.
The intervention will last for 12 weeks

Group Intervention Description Group (B) Vitamin D supplementation only Included 15 patients who are receiving vitamin D supplementation only . One capsule containing (cholecalciferol 400 IU) was taken every day for 12 weeks Group (A) aerobic interval training and Vitamin D supplementation, Included 15 patients who are participating in an aerobic interval training exercise program with vitamin D supplementation (cholecalciferol 400 IU/day). The aerobic interval training is conducted for one hour, three days per week on a total period of 12 weeks. Group (c) aerobic interval training only Included 15 patients who are participating in an aerobic interval training exercise program only. The aerobic interval training is conducted for one hour, three days per week on a total period of 12 weeks.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Description of Functional capacity efficiency It is performed before and after the study(12 weeks interval) for all groups Cooper 12-Minute Walk Test (12MWT)
Intensity of non specific muscle pain (myalgia) It is performed before and after the study(12 weeks interval) for all groups A 10-cm Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) was used to evaluate the patients' pain , with 0 representing no pain and 10 representing the worst pain imaginable
Description of the improvement in Quality of life It is performed before and after the study(12 weeks interval) for all groups The Short form health survey (SF-12)is often used to compare health status between groups of patients, to indentify predictors of health status
Concentration of Plasma Serum vitamin D level (25OHD) It is performed before and after the study(12 weeks interval) for all groups It is performed by Laboratory BioPlex® 2200 System
