Abstract: (1614 Views)
Objectives One of the most important social developments of the 21st century is older people struggling with problems such as muscle mass loss and vitamin D deficiency. The present study investigated the effect of combined exercises with and without blood flow restriction and vitamin D supplementation on serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels in older women.
Methods & Materials This study was conducted as a clinical trial on 40 older women in three intervention groups and a control group in the spring of 2021. The people in the intervention group were subjected to the exercise program for eight weeks, three sessions per week. Combined exercises included aerobic + resistance exercises (with an intensity of 80% 1 maximum repetition) and combined exercises with blood flow restriction (20%-30% 1 maximum repetition). In the supplement group, a 50000 mg vitamin D capsule was used once a week. ALP indices vitamin D supplement amount was measured in two stages before and after the test. Data analysis was done using analysis of covariance and paired t-test in SPSS software at a significance level of α=0.05.
Results The present study showed that vitamin D supplementation had no significant effect on ALP levels (P˃0.05). While combined exercises with and without blood flow restriction significantly affected the target index (P˂0.05).
Conclusion It seems that combined exercises with and without blood flow restriction have a positive effect on the level of ALP in older women, while taking vitamin D supplements alone in the short term cannot have beneficial effects on the level of ALP in older women.
