The Effect of Twelve-Week Aerobic Exercise on IL-6 level and depression in 50-65 Years Old Women with Syndrome Metabolic

The aim of this research was to investigate the effect of twelve-week aerobic exercise with moderate intensity on IL-6 level and depression in 50-65 years old women with syndrome metabolic and its relationship with indexes of syndrome metabolic.
24 women with metabolic syndrome (MetS) voluntarily took part in the present study. Participants were randomly divided in two groups of MetS exercise (ME), MetS control (MC), each comprised of 12. During the first week ME group participated in three sets of eight-minute aerobic exercise training (AT) program and they have 5 minute rest part between the sets. One minute was added to the duration of exercise sets weekly basis. Beck depression questionnaire and blood samples were conducted before and after twelve-week. IL-6 level and depression significantly decreased (P˂0.05) as effects of three-month aerobic exercise. Z syndrome metabolic score underwent a significant increase (P˂0.05). A significant relationship (P˂0.05) was also noticed among improvement of metabolic syndrome, IL-6 level and depression decrease.
The twelve-week aerobic exercise leaded to a decrease in depression and amelioration in metabolic syndrome. It is also probable that depression decrease as an effect of 3-month aerobic exercise relate with IL- 6 decrease.
