The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of exercise programs on the treatment of chronic diseases. For this purpose, nine middle-aged women suffering from such chronic diseases as obesity, hypertension and coronary heart disease(CHD) were sampled to perform a 4-month-long exercise program which required the lactate threshold(LT) level corresponding to 70% of maximal oxygen uptake(VO2max). Thereupon, their physiques, physical fitness, blood components and physiological varibles were compared pre and post of exercise program. The results were summarized as follows ; 1) After the 4-month-long exercise program, %fat was significantly decreased, while such variables as grip strength, side step, trunk flexion and leg balance were significantly increased. 2) Blood components such as TG, TC, HDL-C, LDL-C, hemoglobin and hematocrit did not show and change in after exercise program. 3) Physiological varables such as HR, SBP, DBP, HR/LT, SBP/LT, DBP/LT, RPE/LT, VE/LT, VO2/LT and VO2 max showed significant increase after 4-month exercise program. These results suggest that regular aerobic exercise in a long period might help to decrease % fat and to increase aerobic capacity in middle-aged women suffering from chronic diseases.

연구배경 : 폐 절제술이 술후 운동능력의 변화에 어떤 영향을 주는지 잘 알려져 있지 않으나 폐 관류 검사를 이용하여 술후 운동능력을 예측하고자 하는 몇몇 연구들이 있었다. 그러나 이들 연구들은 검사시점 및 대상환자의 선정 등에 문제가 있음이 지적되고 있다. 본 연구에서 폐암 환자에서 술후 운동능력을 예측하는데 술전 폐관류 검사의 유용성 및 술전 후의 폐기능의 변화가 운동능력의 변화와 상관관계가 있는지를 알아보고자 하였다. 방 법 : 술전 1주 이내에 폐기능 검사, 심폐 운동부하 검사, technetium 99m labelled macroaggregated albumin (99mTc-MAA)을 이용한 폐 관류 겸사 및 체중, 체질량 지수를 측정하였다. 폐관류 검사를 이용한 술후 검사의 예측치는 preoperative values measured$\pm$[% perfusion remained/(% perfusion resected+% perfusion remained)]를 이용하여 구하였다. 폐관류 검사를 이용한 술후 검사치의 예측도를 알기 위하여 술후 실측된 검사치와 폐관류 검사로 예측한 검사치의 비[postoperative value measured/postoperative value predicted)$\pm$100%]를 구하였다. 또한 환자의 술전 후 각각의 실측된 검사치 간의 차이를 비교하기 위하여[(preoperative value measured-postoperative value measured)/preoperative value measured]$\pm$100%를 측정하였다. 결 과 : 대상군에서 술전 및 술후 6개월에 측정한 체중 및 체질량 지수의 차이가 없었다. 술후 실측된 $VO_{2max}$는 폐관류 검사에 의하여 예측된 $VO_{2max}$의 112%이었으며, $WR_{max}$는 119% 이었다. 그러나 술후 실측된 심폐 운동부하 검사치는 폐관류 검사에 의하여 예측된 심폐 운동부하 검사치와 각각 $r_s$, 값이 0.794와 0.932로 유의한 상관관계를 보였다. 심폐 운동부하 검사치에서는 전폐절제술 환7-r군에서 술후 실측된 $VO_{2max}$ 및 $WR_{max}$는 예측된 각각의 검사치의 121.05%, 136.51%이었으며, 엽절제술 환자군에서는 각각 107.94%와 111.59%이었다. 심폐 운동부하 검사치의 감소는 엽절제술 환자군에서 $VO_{2max}$와 $WR_{max}$가 각각 7.69%와 3.73%이었고 전폐절제술 환자군에서는 15.71%와 7.14% 었다. 술전 후 $FEV_1$, FVC 및 TLC의 변화는 술전 후 $VO_{2max}$와 $WR_{max}$의 변화와 유의한 상관관계를 보였다. 결 론 : 술전 폐관류 검사는 술후 운동능력을 예측하는데 유용하다고 판단된다. 그러나 술전 폐관류 검사는 술후 운동능력을 낮게 평가하는 경향을 보였다.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to compare how the shoulder height and respiratory function are affected by applying shoulder stabilization exercises and core stabilization exercises that are effective for strengthening the trunk muscles and postural stability for adults with a round shoulder posture (RSP). METHODS: The participants were 28 young adults with RSP. They were assigned randomly to two groups: shoulder stabilization exercise and core stabilization exercise. They performed the exercises for 30 minutes twice a week for four weeks. They measured the shoulder height and respiratory function before and after exercise. RESULTS: No significant difference in shoulder height was found between the groups. A significant decrease in shoulder height was found in the shoulder stabilization exercise group after exercise. The core stabilization exercise group showed a significant decrease after exercise. In respiratory function, no significant difference was found between the groups. The forced vital capacity (FVC) and forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV₁) were increased significantly in the shoulder stabilization exercise group before and after exercise. The FEV₁, FEV₁/FVC, and peak expiratory flow were significantly higher in the shoulder stabilization exercise group after exercise than in the core stabilization exercise group. CONCLUSION: Shoulder stabilization exercise and core stabilization exercise improved the postural alignment and pulmonary function, and the exercises could be helpful in shoulder rehabilitation as well as the clinical part of the treatment of rounded shoulder posture.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the 12-week horse riding exercise effect on the locomotion of a body and bilateral balance and flexion/extension of trunk during the sit-to-stand(STS) in elementary and middle school students. One-hundred eleven participants were divided into three groups. Each group was subject to a different horse riding exercise: control group(n = 36), 1 time/week group(n=37), and 3 times/week group(n=38). Two-way repeated ANOVA was used to compare weight transfer time(WTT), trunk flexion velocity(TFV), trunk extension velocity(TEV), mean rising index(MRI), mean weight asymmetry( MWA) among the groups, and STS changes in before and after 12 weeks. There was a group interaction in WTT, TFV, TEV, MRI, and MWA with different responses to horse riding exercise participation. There was a significant increase in 1 time/week group and 3 times/week group of WTT, TFV, TEV, and MRI. Additionally, MWA(an index of a capacity for bilateral balance) in lower extremity was decreased in 3 times/week group. It seems that horse riding exercise positively affected musculoskeletal function of the trunk and lower extremity by accelerating locomotion and bilateral balance.

PURPOSE: The functional limitations in stroke survivors promote sedentary lifestyles and quality of life inadequacies, but there is increasing evidence that this could be minimized by physical exercise. Therefore, this study examined the effects of physical exercise on the quality of life (QoL) and functional capacity (ability to stand up from a sitting position) among stroke survivors drafted from two tertiary hospitals in Osogbo, Nigeria. METHODS: A purposive sampling technique was used to select 21 registered right or left outpatient hemiplegic stroke survivors in a pre- and post-test experimental research design. The research questions were presented using descriptive statistics of frequency, percentage, mean and standard deviation, while an Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) was used to test the study hypothesis at the .05 alpha level for significance. RESULTS: Compared to the baseline (week 0), there were significant increases in the general quality of life, healthy well-being, physical exercise, pain perception, and environmental domains of QOL among the survivors in week four. Moreover, a significant increase was observed in these indices in week eight, compared to week four, except for the pain perception domain. Compared to the baseline, there was a significant decrease in the time it took the stroke survivors to stand up from a sitting position in week four. A significant decrease was observed in this index in week eight compared to week four. CONCLUSION: Marked corridor 20 meters brief walking exercise for eight weeks significantly improved the quality of life and ability to stand up from a sitting position in stroke survivors in Osogbo, Nigeria.

This study was conducted to identify the effects of a planned exercise program based on Bandura's self efficacy model on metabolism, and the exercise compliance in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients. The study design was a nonequivalent pre-test post-test control design. Thirty four type 2 diabetes mellitus patients, who received follow-up care regularly through the diabetic out-patient clinic, were randomly sampled for this study. Twenty patients were assigned to the experimental group and fourteen patients were assigned to the control group. In the experimental group, a planned exercise program is composed of an individualized exercise prescription for 12 weeks, an individual education, and even a telephone coach program. In the case of the control group, they were instructed to continue with their usual schedules. The data collection period was from March 1999 to February 2000 Data were analyzed using SPSS/WINDOW 10.0 program. The results were as follows. 1. In the experimental group, the level of fasting blood sugar has significantly decreased from 188.20 mg/㎗ to 155.55 mg/㎗ after planned exercise program (F= 16.86, p=.000). For lipid metabolism, body fat per cutaneous decreased from 27.16% to 26.57% after planned exercise program. The score of self efficacy has increased from 64.20 to 66.65 after planned exercise program and it was statistically significant (F=4.850, p=.040) The functional vital capacity has increased from 3.28$\ell$ to 3.37$\ell$and it was statistically significant(F=7.300, p=.020). 2. In an after effect of a planned exercise program, 35 percent of the subjects who participated in a planned exercise program continued to exercise for another six months. In conclusion, the planned exercise program can improve cardiopulmonary function, glucose, and lipid metabolism. This program was show a positive effect on the self efficacy and exercise compliance.
