Summary

This study is a randomised, controlled, unblinded, clinical intervention trial consisting of 12 weeks of aerobic exercise training. Thirty persons with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) and hepatic steatosis are randomised to either aerobic exercise training (intervention group, n=15) or no intervention (control group, n=15). The study will investigate the effects of the exercise intervention on the liver and the hypothesis is that the exercise group will reduce the fat-fraction of the liver after the intervention.

Conditions

  • Hepatitis B, Chronic
  • Hepatic Steatosis

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

High Intensity Interval Training

A training session consists of 40 minutes as follows: 4x4 minutes at \> 85% of heart rate maximum (HRmax) alternated by 3x3 minutes active recovery at (50-70% of HRmax) and a 10-min-warm-up (60-79% of HRmax) and 5- minute cool-down at \~ warm up intensity. HRmax was determined during the VO2max test at baseline visit. Minutes spent in the different heart rate zones is monitored during the session (zone 1: 60-69%, zone 2: 70-74%, zone 3: 75-79%, zone 4: 80-84%, zone 5: \>85% of HRmax).
