RESUMO
Objective:To observe the rehabilitation effect of Baduanjin combined with elastic band training on elderly patients with sarcopenia. Methods:From January 2019 to January 2021, 120 elderly sarcopenia patients in our hospital who met the inclusion criteria were divided into two groups according to the random number table method, with 60 in each group. The control group was given conventional treatment intervention for sarcopenia, and the observation group was Baduanjin exercises combined with elastic band training on the basis of the control group. Both groups were intervened for 12 weeks. The skeletal muscle index (SMI), muscle grip strength, short physical performance battery (SPPB) and Modified Barthel Index (MBI) were used to compare between two groups before and after the intervention. Results:After treatment, the SMI index [(6.77 ± 1.03) kg/m 2vs. (6.35 ± 1.12) kg/m 2, t=2.14], muscle grip strength [(23.06 ± 3.48) kg vs. (19.41 ± 3.79) kg, t=5.50], SPPB score [(9.12 ± 2.24) vs. (7.85 ± 2.13), t=3.18] and MBI score [(82.43 ± 20.75) vs. (64.36 ± 19.42), t=4.93] of the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group ( P<0.05). After treatment, the distribution of muscle activity function in the observation group was significantly better than that of the control group ( Z=-2.28, P=0.023). Conclusion:Baduanjin combined with elastic band training can improve the muscle function and quality of daily activities in elderly patients with sarcopenia.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To assess the safety and effect on elevated blood lipid levels of Baduanjin exercises in middle-aged and elderly individuals. METHODS: A systematic literature search for articles up to March 2017 will be conducted using seven databases: PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure, Chinese Science and Technology Periodicals Database, Chinese BioMedical Database and Wanfang Data. Inclusion criteria are randomised controlled trials of Baduanjin exercises that examine blood lipid levels in middle-aged and elderly individuals. The primary outcome measures will be total cholesterol, triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. Stata V.13.0 software will be used for data synthesis, sensitivity analysis, metaregression, subgroup analysis and risk of bias assessment. A funnel plot will be developed to evaluate reporting bias and Begg and Egger tests will be used to assess funnel plot symmetries. We will use the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation system to assess the quality of evidence. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: This systematic review will be submitted to a peer-reviewed journal. Our findings will provide information about the safety of Baduanjin exercises for middle-aged and elderly individuals and their effect on elevated blood lipid levels. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: PROSPERO CRD 42017060613.
