Objective: To test the hypothesis that aerobic exercise attenuates systemic inflammatory activity in individuals with cardiovascular risk.
Methods: Randomized controlled trial, which included 68 sedentary individuals, with at least two risk factors for coronary heart disease or established cardiovascular disease.
