Summary

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a genetic disease characterized by abnormal chloride transport in epithelial tissues. Inflammation is a key component contributing to the main alterations induced by the disease. The increase in life expectancy comes with a higher prevalence of CF-related comorbidities, but also with new emerging complications directly related to aging. Physical fitness and exercise practice have been previously associated to survival and better quality of life in patients with cystic fibrosis. Thus, the aim of this study is to assess the effects of a remotely supervised resistance exercise program on lung function, muscle strength, body composition, quality of life and inflammatory markers in adult patients with cystic fibrosis.
