About
To show the effect of pyramidal training for coronary artery disease prevention on:
-Epicardial fat, BMI, Waist circumference (WC), Lipid profile, Quality of life and Mediterranean Diet Adherence.
Full description
Back Ground: Coronary heart disease (CHD) is a type of ischemic heart disease characterized by atherosclerotic plaque accumulation in the coronary arteries.Obesity leads to coronary artery disease (CAD) in part through an inflammatory process that accelerates atherosclerotic plaque formation which may start as early as childhood. Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is the Visceral adipose tissue (VAT) of the heart .EAT has unique embryologic, anatomic, and histologic features, including smaller adipocytes and higher prevalence of immune cells when compared to subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT).
Purpose: To show the effect of pyramidal training for coronary artery disease prevention on:
-Epicardial fat, BMI, Waist circumference (WC), Lipid profile, Quality of life and Mediterranean Diet Adherence.
Methods: This study is Randomize Control Trail that will be carried out on 50 females' patients and will be selected from the Outpatient clinics at Pharos University. Patient will be randomly assigned to two groups.
Experimental group:
This group will include 25 patients who will receive pyramidal aerobic training by treadmill for 40 minutes per session (three sessions per week) for (12 weeks) in addition to Mediterranean diet.
Control group:
This group will include 25 patients who will receive Mediterranean diet for (12 weeks).
Results: Data analysis with Independent t-test will be used to compare the baseline parameters between the intervention and control groups. Repeated measures ANOVA will be used to compare the changes in EATT, anthropometrics and lipid levels at the baseline and after 12 weeks between the two groups.
Keywords: Pyramidal Training, Epicardial Fat, Coronary artery disease.
