Summary

ABSTRACT Introduction: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic inflammatory, chronic and progressive disease that can lead to joint destruction and important functional disability. Chronic inflammation, with a substantial increase in the amount of pro-inflammatory cytokines in synovial joint, is one of the biggest challenges in controlling RA. Resistance exercise has been recognized for positively modulate inflammation in healthy subjects. Objective: To evaluate the effect of an acute bout of resistance exercise on serum concentrations of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), interleukin 1 receptor antagonist(IL-1ra), interleukin 1 beta (IL-1β), C reactive protein (CRP), interleukin 6 (IL-6), interleukin 10 (IL-10), and cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) in postmenopausal women with RA and women without the disease. Methods: 17 volunteers with RA and 17 without the disease, with a mean age of 54.7 + 6.63 underwent a resistance exercise session with a set of 12 repetitions at 50% of one repetition maximum (1RM ) and a set of 8 repetitions at 75% of 1RM. The exercises performed were: knee extension, knee flexion, hip abduction and hip adduction. Blood samples were obtained 30 minutes before, 5 minutes before, immediately after, 1 hour, 2 hours and 24 hours after the exercise session. Serum glucose concentrations prior to exercise were also measured. The investigators used the Student's't test, the model of analysis of variance with repeated measures and Bonferroni method of multiple comparisons to analyze the data, being considered statistically significant levels of p \<0.05.
