Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Changes in high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP). Timepoint: First intervention and 2 months after intervention. Method of measurement: At the beginning and end of the trial, 10 mL of venous blood samples will be collected between 9:00 AM and 7:00 AM following an overnight fast. The immunoturbidimetry assay will be utilized to characterize the serum hs-CRP level (Pars Azmoon Co., Tehran, Iran).;Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-a). Timepoint: First intervention and 2 months after intervention. Method of measurement: At the beginning and end of the trial, 10 mL of venous blood samples will be collected between 9:00 AM and 7:00 AM following an overnight fast. Based on the biotin double antibody sandwich technique, commercial enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits (Diaclone, Besancon, France) will be used to analyze the levels of TNF-a.;Changes in Interleukin 6 (IL-6). Timepoint: First intervention and 2 months after intervention. Method of measurement: At the beginning and end of the trial, 10 milliliters of venous blood samples will be collected between 7 AM and 9 AM after an overnight fast. Based on a double biotin sandwich antibody method, commercial ELISA kits (Diaclone, Besançon, France) will be used to analyze IL-6 levels.;Changes in Interleukin 10 (IL-10). Timepoint: First intervention and 2 months after intervention. Method of measurement: At the beginning and end of the trial, 10 milliliters of venous blood samples will be collected between 7 AM and 9 AM after an overnight fast. Based on a double biotin sandwich antibody method, commercial ELISA kits (Diaclone, Besançon, France) will be used to analyze IL-10 levels.;Changes in Low-Density Lipoprotein (LDL). Timepoint: First intervention and 2 months after intervention. Method of measurement: At the beginning and end of the trial, 10 ml of venous blood samples will be collected between 9 am and 7 am after an overnight fast. LDL concentration will be determined by enzymatic colorimetric methods (C

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Waist circumference. Timepoint: First intervention and 2 months after intervention. Method of measurement: Waist circumference was measured using a non-elastic tape measure in the standing position at the midpoint of the lower edge of the lowest rib and the superior border of the iliac crest after normal breathing (without clothing). Waist circumference was measured according to standard methods described elsewhere.;Hip circumference. Timepoint: First intervention and 2 months after intervention. Method of measurement: The circumference of the hips will also be measured at the area of ??the greatest curvature of the buttocks without pressing the skin.;Body composition (FFM, FM, and FM%). Timepoint: First intervention and 2 months after intervention. Method of measurement: A body composition analyzer (Tanita BC-418, Tanita Corp., Tokyo, Japan) will be used to measure the participants' body composition.;Maximum oxygen consumption (VO2 max). Timepoint: First intervention and 2 months after intervention. Method of measurement: Aerobic fitness will also be assessed with a standardized submaximal treadmill walking protocol, which will be modified from the Balke 27 maximal protocol, to be appropriate for participants with various chronic conditions.;Body Mass Index (BMI). Timepoint: First intervention and 2 months after intervention. Method of measurement: BMI will also be calculated using the relevant formula by dividing weight (kg) by height squared (m2).;Body weight changes. Timepoint: First intervention and 2 months after intervention. Method of measurement: The patients' weight before and after the intervention will be measured using a Seca dial scale made in Germany with an accuracy of 100 grams with minimal clothing and no shoes. The patients' height will also be measured using a tape measure mounted on the wall with an accuracy of 0.1 cm.
