背景。该研究的目的是确定中等强度运动对老年女性家庭护理人员的健康和生活质量的影响。方法。这项为期 12 个月的随机对照试验涉及 100 名年龄在 49 岁至 82 岁之间的女性志愿者样本，她们久坐、没有心血管疾病，并照顾患有痴呆症的亲戚。参与者被随机分配接受为期 12 个月的家庭电话监督中等强度运动训练或注意力控制（营养教育）计划。锻炼包括每周 4 次 30 至 40 分钟的耐力锻炼（快走），锻炼强度为基于跑步机运动峰值心率的心率储备的 60% 至 75%。主要结果是压力引起的心血管反应水平。评估睡眠质量，并报告心理困扰。结果。与营养参与者 (NU) 相比，运动参与者 (EX) 在以下方面表现出显着改善： 总能量消耗（基线和测试后平均值 [SD]，EX = 1.4 [1.9] 和 2.2 [2.2] kcal/kg/天；NU = 1.2 [1.7] 和 1.2 [1.6] kcal/kg/天；p
Background. The study objective was to determine the health and quality-of-life effects of moderate-intensity exercise among older women family caregivers.Methods. This 12-month randomized controlled trial involved a volunteer sample of 100 women aged 49 to 82 years who were sedentary, free of cardiovascular disease, and caring for a relative with dementia. Participants were randomized to 12 months of home-based, telephone-supervised, moderate-intensity exercise training or to an attention-control (nutrition education) program. Exercise consisted of four 30- to 40-minute endurance exercise sessions (brisk walking) prescribed per week at 60% to 75% of heart rate reserve based on peak treadmill exercise heart rate. Main outcomes were stress-induced cardiovascular reactivity levels. rated sleep quality, and reported psychological distress.Results. Compared with nutrition participants (NU), exercise participants (EX) showed significant improvements in the following: total energy expenditure (baseline and post-test means [SD] for EX = 1.4 [1.9] and 2.2 [2.2] kcal/kg/day; for NU = 1.2 [1.7] and 1.2 [1.6] kcal/kg/day; p
