Abstract

The aim of this study was to compare physical performance in Italian adolescents with different habitual activity levels and to examine its relationship with peripheral muscle strength and quality of life. At regular clinic visits in 5 cystic fibrosis (CF) Centres in Italy, 35 subjects performed spirometry, incremental shuttle walk test (ISWT), one-repetition maximum (1 RM) and completed the Habitual Activity Estimation Scale (HAES). Subjects were divided into two groups, based on activity levels derived from the HAES. More active subjects achieved higher ISWT distance (ISWD) (1040.4 m vs.851.3 m, p=0.2) and described better body image perception (75.7% vs. 66.7% p=0.3) than subjects in the less active group, but these results did not reach a statistical significance. There was no correlation between ISWD, lung function and quality of life, but we observed a moderate correlation between ISWD and upper limb strength (r=0.46). Our data showed that more active subjects did not differ from less- active ones. Further studies should choose alternative tools to assess physical activity levels in order to detect the real engagement in vigorous activities, making it easier to compare and combine results and promote educational intervention.
意大利青少年囊性纤维化患者的身体活动水平和表现:一项多中心横断面研究
本研究的目的是比较意大利青少年不同习惯性活动水平的身体表现,并研究其与周围肌肉力量和生活质量的关系。在意大利5个囊性纤维化(CF)中心的常规门诊就诊中,35名受试者进行了肺活量测定、增量穿梭行走测试(ISWT)、单次重复最大值(1 RM)和习惯性活动评估量表(HAES)。根据HAES得出的活动水平,受试者被分为两组。运动较多的受试者ISWT距离(ISWD)较运动较少的受试者高(1040.4 m比851.3 m, p=0.2),体像感知较运动较少的受试者好(75.7%比66.7% p=0.3),但结果均无统计学意义。ISWD与肺功能和生活质量无相关性,但我们观察到ISWD与上肢力量有中度相关性(r=0.46)。我们的数据显示,活动量大的受试者与活动量小的受试者并无差异。进一步的研究应该选择替代工具来评估身体活动水平,以便发现真正参与剧烈活动的情况,使比较和综合结果更容易,并促进教育干预。
