Summary

This investigation recruited 72 pediatric patients with a confirmed bronchial asthma diagnosis. Participants were randomized into three cohorts: a control group undertaking under 75 minutes of weekly aerobic activity, a low-dose group completing 150 minutes/week, and a high-dose group performing 300 minutes/week. Exercise intensity was maintained between 50-70% of the age- adjusted maximum heart rate across 3-4 supervised sessions per week for a 12-week intervention period.

Pre- and post-intervention analyses included measurements of adipose-tissue- derived adipokines, circulating inflammatory markers, body composition, and pulmonary function parameters.

Conditions

  • Bronchial Asthma

Interventions

OTHER

Respiratory Re-training

The standardized respiratory re-training protocol was administered in 30-minute sessions, three times per week, over a consecutive 12-week period. The regimen incorporated diaphragmatic breathing, breath-holding and control techniques, pursed-lip breathing, respiratory muscle strengthening, postural correction, and relaxation exercises.

OTHER

Low-dose Aerobic Training

A moderate-intensity aerobic regimen (50-70% of maximum heart rate) maintained at a consistent total weekly volume of 150 minutes.

OTHER

High-dose Aerobic Training

A moderate-intensity aerobic regimen (50-70% of maximum heart rate) maintained at a consistent total weekly volume of 300 minutes.
