Introduction: There is a lack of evidence regarding the effect of physical exercise (a structured, guided and systematized form of physical activity) as a strategy combined with usual drug treatment on the symptoms of depression in people with bipolar disorder (BD). Consequently, the most recent recommendation from the World Health Organization for the practice of physical activity/physic…
Physical activity (any body movement with energy expenditure above resting levels) differs from physical exercise (physical activity performed in a systematic, guided, and organized manner). Although much has been explored regarding the impact of physical exercise on the expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in the general population, the relationship between physical act…
Cytokines can be produced, expressed and released by muscle fibers. In healthy individuals, acute exercise can induce anti-inflammatory effects, and the acute increase in IL-6 induced by exercise stimulates a systemic anti-inflammatory environment, with evidence that exercise has positive effects on cognitive function and brain health. The finding that muscle contraction is perceived by t…
Introduction: Aging is accompanied by a decrease in brain volume (brain atrophy), which is related to cognitive worsening in the elderly, and, therefore, corresponds to an important risk factor for dementia in this population. Justification: Evidence indicates that physical exercise interventions have the potential to contribute to the prevention and/or mitigation of this atrophy. However…

Introduction: Bipolar disorder (BD) is a specific and complex disorder characterized by mood changes: manic, hypomanic and depressive episodes. The population with TB has a mortality rate two to three times higher than the general population. Meta-analysis studies have shown that the chances of death from cardiovascular diseases increase in patients with TB. However, the studies did not a…
Physical activity is a healthy act, which promotes numerous benefits, being a protective factor for the development of different diseases, especially when practiced within the recommendations (300 minutes or more) proposed by the World Health Organization. Recent studies have indicated that diseases and mental disorders are related to lesser PA accumulation, in which we highlight depressi…
Realize more time of moderate/vigorous physical activity (MVPA) and less time of sedentary behavior (SB) is necessary and beneficial to patients with depression. The objective evaluation of these variables is carried out by accelerometers, used for 7 days and this collection is considered valid with at least 4 days of use. Such protocol is not performed by 30 to 60% of patients on average…
