[Insight into the training of patients with idiopathic inflammatory myopathy].

Orvosi Hetilap 2016 September
Using current recommended treatment, a majority of patients with idiopathic inflammatory myopathy develop muscle impairment and poor health. Beneficial effects of exercise have been reported on muscle performance, aerobic capacity and health in chronic polymyositis and dermatomyositis, as well as in active disease and inclusion body myositis to some extent. Importantly, randomized controlled trials indicate that improved health and decreased clinical disease activity could be mediated through increased aerobic capacity. Recently, reports seeking pathomechanisms of the underlying effects of exercise on skeletal muscle indicate increased aerobic capacity (i.e. increased mitochondrial capacity and capillary density, reduced lactate levels), activation of genes of aerobic phenotype and muscle growth programs and down regulation of genes related to inflammation. Exercise contributes to both systemic and within-muscle adaptations demonstrating that it is fundamental for improving muscle performance and health in patients with idiopathic inflammatory myopathy. There is a need for randomized controlled trials to study the effects of exercise in patients with active disease and inclusion body myositis. Orv. Hetil., 2016, 157(39), 1557-1562.
