Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Inflammatory biomarkers Baseline and post-intervention Intravenous blood sample will be collected for analyzing inflammation (IL-6 protein, TNF-alpha protein). | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Muscle thickness Baseline and post-intervention The B-mode ultrasonography will be used to capture quadricepts muscle images of the dominant leg. All muscle thickness (MT) and echo intensity (EI) were analyzed with Image J software.,Endothelium-dependent vasodilation Baseline and post-intervention Post-occlusive reactive hyperemia (PORH) technique will be used at brachial artery at the dominant arm. ,muscle strengthening Baseline and post-intervention Upper arm strengthening will be measured by the bench press technique. Leg dynamometer test will be used to evaluate leg muscles strengthening.,Body composition and anthropometry Baseline, during, post-intervention Body composition (body mass, BMI, muscle mass, %body fat, fat mass, water mass, protein mass, mineral mass, bone mass, and visceral fat level) will be measured by a bioelectrical impedance analyzer.,Vital sign Baseline, during, post-intervention HR, blood pressure (BP), BP variability, respiratory rate (RR), and partial oxygen saturation (SpO2) will be measured in the supine position by a bed side monitor,Physical activity level and dietary intake Baseline, during, post-intervention The Beacke Habitual Physical Activity Questionnaire will be used to determine activity levels. The 24 hrs. dietary recall and Food Frequency Questionnaires will be used to determine dietary intake. | — |
