Summary

Investigating the physiological effects of the interferons type 1 and 2 (IFNs), and the cytokines Interleukin 6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) on the adaptive changes to exercise in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).

The investigators hypothesize that the pathogenic blockage of IL-6 signalling that occurs in SLE, will decrease the cardiac and metabolic adaptations to aerobic exercise, and this decrease can be related to the IFN signature.

55 patients was included in a 12-week investigator blinded 1:1 randomised high intensity aerobic exercise intervention study.
