简要总结

Classification of activity tolerance is of importance in chronic progressive myopathies, not only to better understand functional implications of the disease state itself, but also for purposes of exercise prescription for health maintenance. Maximal exercise testing has been considered as the gold standard of assessing maximal aerobic capacity, however testing in individuals with neuromuscular disease is often limited due to pain, activity intolerance, musculoskeletal impairments, fatigue and other such related variables. Often, submaximal exercise testing can overcome some of these obstacles, and as such, is used frequently in the clinical environment. Non-ambulatory exercise testing utilizing an arm ergometer specifically has not been studied as heavily, especially in those with progressive myopathies. For this study, we will use maximal aerobic capacity testing for individuals with Cystinosis Myopathy utilizing a bike ergometer to allow testing of individuals regardless of their ambulatory status.

详细描述

High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) has been frequently used and studied in normal populations. HIIT exercise shows improved exercise capacity with possible benefits to the neuroendocrine system and neurotransmitters associated with well-being. In this study, we plan to compare aerobic capacity changes during seated HIIT aerobic exercise of individuals with Cystinosis Myopathy. Additionally, we will assess peripheral fatigue using quantitative strength force production and slope decline before and after HIIT aerobic training.

High Intensity interval training: HIIT is a type of interval training that alternates between intense efforts and less intense recovery periods. Benefits include improved aerobic capacity, anaerobic energy, oxygen transport, lactate clearance and neuromuscular coordination. In this study, participants will train at maximal intensities (90-95% of VO2 Max) to place less strain on the neuromuscular system. The goal is to work at longer time periods above the lactate threshold causing an increase in blood lactate concentrations and improve muscles ability to oxidize fats and carbohydrates . Other studies have shown cardiovascular benefits of improved heart volume, maximal mitochondrial capacity and cardiac efficiency. HIIT training compared to regular moderate intensity exercise shows no difference in safety risk for individuals who are sedentary, have heart disease or stroke. However, compared to continuous exercise, HIIT appears to have improved oxygen consumption, blood vessel function, and glucose metabolism in healthy individuals .

Methods:

Ten participants who consent to participate in this exercise study, with no history or evidence of cardiomyopathy or conduction abnormality, and pass screening assessment for ability to complete the training program will be included and provided with an activity monitor, lower/upper extremity ergometer and remote fitness application that the participant will follow for the in-home training.

This study will be a HIIT based home exercise program where participants will perform the lower extremity ergometer based on a HIIT protocol 3x week for 20-30 minutes for a total of 8 weeks.

结局指标

主要结局

VO2 max testing

时间窗: 30-45 minutes

Patients will undergo exercise stress testing using a recumbent cycle ergometry pre and post exercise intervention: Baseline and after week 12. We will use a ramping protocol to maintain a pedal cadence between 50-80RPM which will yield progressive workload increments of 5-10 Watts. Participants will be continuously monitored for any discomfort or pain that they may experience. Maximal effort will be verified as volitional fatigue (OMNI Scale≥8, the inability to maintain pedal cadence at 50 rpm for 10 or more seconds, and/or respiratory exchange ratio (RER; carbon dioxide production/oxygen uptake)\>1.0). Standard ACSM exercise termination criteria will be applied. Measurements will end immediately following exercise. Using this method, peak oxygen uptake (VO2peak) will be identified as the highest oxygen uptake measured during exercise.
