Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of telerehabilitation-based high-intensity interval upper extremity exercise training on biochemistry parameters and disease symptoms in fibromyalgia patients. It has been reported that substances such as serotonin and tryptophan are found at abnormal levels in the serotonergic system in patients with fibromyalgia, and symptoms such as depression, pain, and fatigue related to the disease may be associated with this condition. In the literature, there are studies conducted in other disease groups showing that aerobic exercise regulates tryptophan and serotonin levels and can produce positive results regarding these symptoms. This study was planned to evaluate the effect of high-intensity interval exercise training, which is an aerobic exercise form, whose benefits are frequently mentioned in recent publications, on both blood parameters and symptoms in fibromyalgia patients.
