Interventions

DEVICE

Aerobic exercises with cycling ergometry

A total of 20 sessions of high-intensity interval (HIIT) aerobic exercise program will be applied to the patients using a bicycle ergometer, five days a week and once a day for four weeks. And then, it was planned to perform stretching exercises for the cervical, thoracic and lumbar regions and posture exercises accompanied by a specialist physiotherapist. The patients will be evaluated by the physician for a total of 3 times at the beginning of the treatment, at the end of the treatment (4th week) and at the 12th week after the start of the treatment. All patients will be evaluated for the parameters in the patient evaluation form, and blood samples taken between 08:00 and 10:00 in the morning and Calprotectin, Visfatin, Leptin, IL-33 serum levels will be measured with the ELISA kit.
