Summary

The objective of this study was to compare the effects of training between high-intensity interval training and moderate continuous exercise training on the pulmonary function, respiratory muscle strength, symptoms of patients with allergic rhinitis, cytokines, and oxidative stress in patients with allergic rhinitis.

Detailed description

36 patients with allergic rhinitis were divided into 3 groups, 12 people per group: the control group (CON), the group with high-intensity interval training at a ratio of 1:2 (HIIT) and the group with moderate continuous training (MCT), 3 days per week, over a total period of 12 weeks. Before and after the experiment, lung function, respiratory muscle strength, allergic rhinitis symptoms, nasal blood flow rate, peak nasal inspiratory flow, nitric oxide levels, cytokines and quality of life were measured and used for statistical analysis.

Conditions

• Allergic Rhinitis

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	High-intensity interval training group (HIIT)	The participants performed HIIT programs for 12 weeks involving walking/running on a treadmill preceded by a 10-min warm-up at low intensity and exercise with high intensity for 1 min at 85%-90% of the maximum heart rate alternating with low intensity at 50%-55% of the maximum heart rate for 2 min, for 24 minutes, and 10-min cool down.
OTHER	Moderate continuous training group (MCT)	Subject participating in 30-min sessions for 12 weeks and Each session consisted of a 10-min warm up, walking/running on a treadmill 30 minutes at 65-70% Maximum Heart rate and 10-min cool down.
OTHER	Sedentary control group (CON)	The control group had normal daily life.
