Abstract
Background. Cancer-related fatigue is a persistent symptom in acute myeloid leukemia survivors, with associated decreased functional capacity, which further deteriorates their quality of life. The current study aimed to compare between the impact of aerobic training and resistive training on functional capacity in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) survivors. Fifty nine patients with AML from both sexes aged between 35 and 45 years,were selected from hematology department in (BLINDED FOR PEER REVIEW), where the study was conducted. Patients were randomly assigned into two groups; Group (A) underwent aerobic training in the form of cycling within 50-60% of maximum heart rate. Group (B) underwent resistive training conducted in the form of a series of exercises using free weights, and dumbbells. Sessions were carried out three times per week, for a total of eight weeks period. Six minute walk test (6MWT), 10 repetitions maximum test (10 RM). Ventilatory functions test, fatigue severity assessment (FAS) and quality of life (QoL) scales were measured in both groups before and after the study period. Results. Significant improvement in 6MWT, maximum oxygen consumption (VO2 max) and vital capacity in group (A), significant improvement in fatigue and QoL in both groups and significant improvement in 10 RM test in group (B). Conclusion. Both aerobic and resistive training significantly improved functional capacity in acute myeloid leukemia survivors with a more significant improvement due to aerobic training.

Abstract
Background. Patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (HD) suffer from respiratory symptoms, uremic myopathy and protein catabolism leading to reduction of functional capacity and respiratory muscle strength. Objective. To determine the efficacy of intradialytic respiratory training using concurrent flow resistance (CFR) on respiratory muscle strength and functional capacity. Subjects and methods. Forty patients with end stage renal disease on hemodialysis for at least 4 months, with their age ranged from 30 – 40 of both sexes (20 men and 20 women) participated in this study at hemodialysis center of Fayoum University Hospital, Fayoum, Egypt. A Single- interventional study group designed. The study period was 12 weeks. Maximum inspiratory pressure (MIP) and maximum expiratory pressure (MEP), selected pulmonary function test, Functional capacity and fatigue severity scale (FSS) were evaluated before and after the study. Results. There was significant improvement in MIP, MEP, FEV1%, FVC%, 6MWT and FSS by 61.37%, 63.01%, 58.26%, 55.12%, 36.48% and 22.35% respectively, while no significant difference was recorded regarding to FEV1/FVC% ratio. Conclusion. It can be concluded that respiratory training using concurrent flow resistance (CFR) device for 12 weeks was effective therapeutic technique to improve respiratory muscle strength and functional capacity in patients with end stage renal disease on hemodialysis.

Fizjoterapia Polska 2002; 2(4); 285-289

Abstract
Background. The objective of this study was to assess the influence of complex treatment on functional capacity in patients with chronic coronary artery disease (CAD). Treatment consisted of CABG procedure and subsequent inpatient (phase 1) and outpatient (phase 2) cardiac rehabilitation programs.Material and methods. The study group consisted of 46 male patients aged from 36-68 (x = 51 ± 9.4), whose phase 1 rehabilitation program was initiated in 1st day after CABG procedure and lasted for consecutive 7 days. Phase 2 of rehabilitation consisted of group exercise sessions performed at outpatient exercise centre and 16 cycles of interval training performed on cycle ergometer. Results and conclusions. The results of stress test obtained before CABG procedure and 6 and 12 months later were compared. It was found that patients’ functional capacity improved considerably. The adequate tolerance of exercises performed according to proposed program was noted as well.

摘要
简介。在现代文明时代，腰椎病痛成为医学和社会问题，在慢性病中的多种疼痛综合症、复发性质和疼痛持续性促使人们去寻求有效的诊断和治疗方法。研究目的在比较两种水疗法对减轻上班族颈椎退行性疾病的疼痛和消除功能限制方面的有效性。
材料和方法。共144名年龄在45-55岁间的女性上班族参与研究，她们参与退行性变化过程中所产生颈椎疼痛的康复治疗。根据所应用的康复计划不同，这些女患者被分成两组。实验工具包括颈椎功能测试（Valsalva、Kernig、压缩测试及牵引测试）、颈椎活动范围的线性测量、NRS量表及NDI指数等。分析时所采取的测试包括：卡方检验、学生 t检定、曼-怀-威三氏检验等。
结果。两组康复治疗结束后，在功能测试、颈椎活动范围、NRS标度值及NDI指数方面均观察到具统计学意义的显著改善。第二组患者所取得的研究结果差异比第一组更大。
结论。两种治疗计划的使用均有助于减轻疼痛并改善功能效率，然而接受包含泥疗法在内计划的患者所获得的改善程度更大。
