Summary

This study is a randomised controlled trial designed to thoroughly investigate the effects of aerobic exercise on NVU biomarkers in individuals with MS. The study was conducted between February and June 2025 at the MS clinic affiliated with the Department of Neurology, Faculty of Medicine, Ondokuz Mayıs University. Participants were randomly assigned to either a control group or an exercise group. Assessments were conducted at baseline (pre-assessment) and eight weeks after the intervention (post-assessment).

aerobic exercise intervention

The aerobic exercise programme was implemented over a total of 8 weeks, with two sessions per week, using a treadmill under the supervision of a specialist physiotherapist. Patients' functional capacities were determined by estimating VO2 peak using walking distance, heart rate, and blood pressure measured at 6 DYT. During the aerobic exercise programme, patients' heart rates and oxygen saturation levels were monitored using a pulse oximeter, and care was taken to ensure that the Borg Scale value perceived by patients was between 11 and 14. After the aerobic exercise programme ended, heart rate, blood pressure, and Borg Scale were monitored for at least 5 minutes until they returned to baseline values. The session duration was planned in accordance with the literature, consisting of three phases: a warm-up phase, a loading phase, and a cool-down phase, lasting a minimum of 30 minutes and a maximum of 40 minutes.
