Conditions

Sjogren's syndrome

Interventions

Experimental group: 32 women with Sjogren's Syndrome will perform 28 weeks of supervised physical exercise, being 2 sessions of 1 hour per week. The first 16 weeks will be of resistance exercises, in
Weeks 3 to 5: 40-59% VO 2max for 30 min
Weeks 6 to 8: 40-59% VO 2max for 40 min
Weeks 9 to 12: 60-84% VO 2max for 50 min. Control group: 32 women with Sjogren's Syndrome will maintain traditional treatment for the disease and comorbidities, without performing physical exercises.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
15% improvement in maximum oxygen consumption (VO2max) measured by ergospirometry in relation to baseline, performed at the beginning of the study and up to 72 hours after the last training.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Improvement of respiratory threshold and maximal heart rate as measured by ergospirometry; improvement of ejection fraction and left ventricular systolic and diastolic functions, measured by echocardiography; improvement of glycemic and lipemic profiles; improvement in the quality of life measured by the SF 36 questionnaire; maintenance of the disease activity index measured by the ESSDAI questionnaire. All measurements were taken up to 72 hours after the last training.
