  abstract  = {The association between physical activity (PA) and variables of the perceived environment mainly originate from cross-sectional studies that introduced the idea that the environment influences the PA level of residents. However, the direction of cause and effect has not been solved with finality. The aim of this study was to investigate whether residents' perception of their proximate environment differs depending on their level of PA in transport and recreation. We conducted a cross-sectional survey with residents of six different parts of the city of Cologne, Germany. The sample of 470 adults (52.8\% females; mean age = 35.5 ± 13.8 years) filled in the Global Physical Activity Questionnaire (GPAQ), as well as the European Environmental Questionnaire ALPHA. To distinguish between residents with "low" and "high" PA, we split the samples into two on the basis of the specific median in transport- and recreation-related PA. In the "high" vs. "low" PA group of the overall sample, we noted 4\%-16\% more "PA favourable" environmental perceptions in seven of the 15 environmental variables. Multiple linear regression analyses were performed to investigate associations of socio-demographic correlates and transport- and recreation-related PA on the dependent variables of the environmental perception. In this case, levels of PA were significant predictors for eight of the 15 items concerning environmental perceptions. Thus, the present study introduces the idea that residents with higher levels of transport and recreational PA may perceive their environment in a more "PA-favourable" way than residents with lower levels.},

  abstract  = {Background Physical activity (PA) guidelines acknowledge the health benefits of regular moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) regardless of bout duration. However, little knowledge exists concerning the type and intensity distribution of structured and incidental lifestyle PA of students and office workers. The present study aimed to i) assess the duration and distribution of intensity of MVPAs during waking hours ≥50\% of heart rate reserve (HRR), ii) to identify the type of PA through diary assessment, iii) to assign these activities into structured and lifestyle incidental PA, and iv) to compare this information between students and office workers. Methods Twenty-three healthy participants (11 students, 12 office workers) recorded heart rate (HR) with a wrist-worn HR monitor (Polar M600) and filled out a PA diary throughout seven consecutive days (i.e. ≥ 8 waking h/day). Relative HR zones were calculated, and PA diary information was coded using the Compendium of PA. We matched HR data with the reported PA and identified PA bouts during waking time ≥ 50\% HRR concerning duration, HRR zone, type of PA, and assigned each activity to incidental and structured PA. Descriptive measures for time spend in different HRR zones and differences between students and office workers were calculated. Results In total, we analyzed 276.894 s (76 h 54 min 54 s) of waking time in HRR zones ≥50\% and identified 169 different types of PA. The participants spend 31.9 ± 27.1 min/day or 3.9 ± 3.2\% of their waking time in zones of ≥50\% HRR with no difference between students and office workers (p > 0.01). The proportion of assigned incidental lifestyle PA was 76.9 ± 22.5\%. Conclusions The present study provides initial insights regarding the type, amount, and distribution of intensity of structured and incidental lifestyle PA ≥ 50\% HRR. Findings show a substantial amount of incidental lifestyle PA during waking hours and display the importance of promoting a physically active lifestyle. Future research could employ ambulatory assessments with integrated electronic diaries to detect information on the type and context of MVPA during the day.},

  abstract  = {Wenig ist bekannt {\"u}ber die gesundheitsrelevanten Effekte von Spielraumgestaltungen im Kindergarten. Deshalb sollten in dieser Studie die Auswirkungen der Neugestaltung des Außengel{\"a}ndes eines Kindergartens untersucht werden. Dazu wurde eine historisch-kontrollierte Studie konzipiert, an der 66 Kinder des Interventionskindergarten St. Jakobus in Versbach / W{\"u}rzburg teilnahmen. Die Daten von 336 Kindern aus 20 Kontrollkinderg{\"a}rten der PAKT-Studie standen als Kontrollen zur Verf{\"u}gung. Die Intervention bestand in der vollst{\"a}ndigen Neugestaltung des Außen¬gel{\"a}ndes des Kindergartens und der Aufstellung eines großen Kletterger{\"a}tes (Playmobil-Aktivschiff). Die Messungen erfolgten 3 Monate vor und 5-7 Wochen nach der Er{\"o}ffnung des neuen Außengel{\"a}ndes. Gemessen wurde der zeitliche Anteil an „moderate-and-vigorous physical activity" (MVPA) mittels Bewegungsmonitoren (GT1M) an 7 Tagen, sowie folgende motorische Tests: Einbeinstand (EIN), Seitliches Hin- und Herspringen (SHH) und Standweitsprung (SW) aus dem Karlsruher Motorik-Screening, Balancieren r{\"u}ckw{\"a}rts (RB) und Zielwurf auf eine Scheibe aus dem Motoriktest f{\"u}r 4-6 J{\"a}hrige und das dynamische Balancieren r{\"u}ckw{\"a}rts (DBR) aus dem K{\"o}rperkoordinationstest f{\"u}r Kinder. Der DBR wurde nur im Interventionskindergarten durchgef{\"u}hrt. Aus den Z-Werten der Ergebnisse im EIN, SHH, SW wurde ein Motorikgesamtscore als Maß der allgemeinen k{\"o}rperlichen Leistungsf{\"a}higkeit gebildet. Gr{\"o}ße, Gewicht, Hautfaltendicke an vier K{\"o}rperstellen ({\"u}ber dem Bizeps und dem Trizeps, sowie subskapul{\"a}r und suprailiakal) und der Blutdruck wurde gemessen (Dinamap 8100, Critikon). Aus Daten des Deutschen Wetterdienstes wurde die mittlere Tagestemperatur am Tag der zweiten Untersuchung bestimmt und bei den Analysen des Blutdrucks ber{\"u}cksichtigt. In zwei Frageb{\"o}gen wurden Informationen zu famili{\"a}ren, gesundheitlichen und sozio{\"o}konomischen Gegebenheiten ermittelt sowie sportliche Aktivit{\"a}ten in der Freizeit abgefragt. Die {\"A}nderungen im MVPA-Anteil an Vormittagen von Werktagen und die {\"A}nderungen im Motorikgesamtscore der motorischen Leistungsf{\"a}higkeit wurden als prim{\"a}re Ergebnisvariablen definiert. F{\"u}r die statistischen Berechnungen wurde PASW Statistics 18 genutzt. Um Gruppenunterschiede zu T1 zu analysieren wurde die Varianzanalyse (ANOVA) verwendet. F{\"u}r die L{\"a}ngsschnitt¬unter-suchung bei intervallskalierten Variablen wurde die univariate Varianzanalyse genutzt (allgemeines lineares Modell) und Alter, sowie Geschlecht als feste Faktoren, das Ergebnis der Eingangsuntersuchung als Kovariate ins Modell eingeschlossen. Zur Eingangsuntersuchung bestanden folgende signifikante Unterschiede zwischen der Kontroll- und Interventionsgruppe: die Interventionsgruppe waren am Vormittag von Werktagen weniger k{\"o}rperlich aktiv und schnitten schlechter im SHH ab. Im L{\"a}ngsschnitt zeigten sich f{\"u}r die Interventionsgruppe gegen{\"u}ber der Kontrollgruppe signifikante Verbesserungen in den beiden prim{\"a}ren Ergebnisvariablen MVPA-Anteil am Vormittag von Werktagen (p=0,002), sowie im Motorikgesamtscore der motorischen Leistungsf{\"a}higkeit (p=0,012). Weitere positive Ergebnisse ergaben sichf{\"u}r den systolischen Blutdruck (p=0,037 unter Einschluss der mittleren Tagestemperatur als Kovariate). Hingegen stiegen Gewicht (p=0,009), BMI-Perzentile (p= 0,003) und Trizeps-Hautfaltendicke (p<0,001) im Vergleich zur Kontrollgruppe an. Die attraktive Neugestaltung des Außengel{\"a}ndes eines Kindergartens zeigte sich also erfolgreich, das Bewegungsverhalten und die motorischen F{\"a}higkeiten der Kinder zu f{\"o}rdern. Es konnte auch nachgewiesen werden, dass die mittlere Außentemperatur einen hoch signifikanten Einfluss auf den systolischen Blutdruck hat, weshalb dies in entsprechenden zuk{\"u}nftigen Studien ber{\"u}cksichtigt werden sollte. Trotz Intervention ergab sich im Beobachtungszeitraum eine Zunahme von Gewicht, BMI und subkutanem Fettgewebe. Als Ursache daf{\"u}r kommen die kurze Beobachtungszeit, sowie die Einschr{\"a}nkungen w{\"a}hrend der Umbauphase des Außengel{\"a}ndes in Frage. Zuk{\"u}nftige Studien sollten unbedingt auch langfristige Messungen des Gewichts, BMIs und subkutanen Fettgewebes beinhalten, um hier weiter Klarheit zu schaffen. Nach den Ergebnissen dieser Studie stellt die Neugestaltung des Außengel{\"a}ndes in Kinderg{\"a}rten eine effektive M{\"o}glichkeit zur F{\"o}rderung der Gesundheit von Kindern dar.},

  abstract  = {The aim was to examine certain aspects of circulatory, metabolic, hormonal, thermoregulatory, cognitive, and perceptual responses while sitting following a brief session of high-intensity interval exercise. Twelve students (five men; age, 22 ± 2 years) performed two trials involving either simply sitting for 180 min (SIT) or sitting for this same period with a 6-min session of high-intensity exercise after 60 min (SIT+HIIT). At T\(_0\) (after 30 min of resting), T\(_1\) (after a 20-min breakfast), T\(_2\) (after sitting for 1 h), T\(_3\) (immediately after the HIIT), T\(_4\), T\(_5\), T\(_6\), and T\(_7\) (30, 60, 90, and 120 min after the HIIT), circulatory, metabolic, hormonal, thermoregulatory, cognitive, and perceptual responses were assessed. The blood lactate concentration (at T\(_3\)-T\(_5\)), heart rate (at T\(_3\)-T\(_6\)), oxygen uptake (at T\(_3\)-T\(_7\)), respiratory exchange ratio, and sensations of heat (T\(_3\)-T\(_5\)), sweating (T\(_3\), T\(_4\)) and odor (T\(_3\)), as well as perception of vigor (T\(_3\)-T\(_6\)), were higher and the respiratory exchange ratio (T\(_4\)-T\(_7\)) and mean body and skin temperatures (T\(_3\)) lower in the SIT+HIIT than the SIT trial. Levels of blood glucose and salivary cortisol, cerebral oxygenation, and feelings of anxiety/depression, fatigue or hostility, as well as the variables of cognitive function assessed by the Stroop test did not differ between SIT and SIT+HIIT. In conclusion, interruption of prolonged sitting with a 6-min session of HIIT induced more pronounced circulatory and metabolic responses and improved certain aspects of perception, without affecting selected hormonal, thermoregulatory or cognitive functions.},

  abstract  = {Background Improvement of the long-term effectiveness of multidisciplinary ortho-paedic rehabilitation (MOR) in the management of chronic non-specific low back pain (CLBP) remains a central issue for health care in Germany. We developed an interprofessional and interdisciplinary, biopsychosocial rehabilitation concept named "PASTOR" to promote self-management in adults with CLBP and compared its effectiveness with the current model of MOR. Methods A multicentre quasi-experimental study with three measurement time points was implemented. 680 adults aged 18 to 65 with CLBP were assed for eligibil-ity in three inpatient rehabilitation centres in Germany. At first the effects of the MOR, with a total extent of 48 hours (control group), were assessed. Thereafter, PASTOR was implemented and evaluated in the same centres (intervention group). It consisted of six interprofessional modules, which were provided on 12 days in fixed groups, with a total extent of 48 hours. Participants were assessed with self-report measures at baseline, discharge, and 12 months for functional ability (primary outcome) using the Hannover Functional Ability Questionnaire (FFbH-R) and vari-ous secondary outcomes (e.g. pain, health status, physical activity, pain coping, pain-related cognitions). Results In total 536 participants were consecutively assigned to PASTOR (n=266) or MOR (n=270). At 12 months, complete data of 368 participants was available. The adjusted between-roup difference in the FFbH-R at 12 months was 6.58 (95\% CI 3.38 to 9.78) using complete data and 3.56 (95\% CI 0.45 to 6.67) using available da-ta, corresponding to significant small-to-medium effect sizes of d=0.42 (p<0.001) and d=0.10 (p=0.025) in favour of PASTOR. Further improvements in secondary out-comes were also observed in favour of PASTOR. Conclusion The interprofessional and interdisciplinary, biopsychosocial rehabilita-tion program PASTOR shows some improvements of the long-term effectiveness of inpatient rehabilitation in the management of adults with CLBP. Further insights into mechanisms of action of complex intervention programs are required.},

  abstract  = {Background: Scientific guidelines have been developed to update and harmonize exercise based cardiac rehabilitation (ebCR) in German speaking countries. Key recommendations for ebCR indications have recently been published in part 1 of this journal. The present part 2 updates the evidence with respect to contents and delivery of ebCR in clinical practice, focusing on exercise training (ET), psychological interventions (PI), patient education (PE). In addition, special patients' groups and new developments, such as telemedical (Tele) or home-based ebCR, are discussed as well. Methods: Generation of evidence and search of literature have been described in part 1. Results: Well documented evidence confirms the prognostic significance of ET in patients with coronary artery disease. Positive clinical effects of ET are described in patients with congestive heart failure, heart valve surgery or intervention, adults with congenital heart disease, and peripheral arterial disease. Specific recommendations for risk stratification and adequate exercise prescription for continuous-, interval-, and strength training are given in detail. PI when added to ebCR did not show significant positive effects in general. There was a positive trend towards reduction in depressive symptoms for "distress management" and "lifestyle changes". PE is able to increase patients' knowledge and motivation, as well as behavior changes, regarding physical activity, dietary habits, and smoking cessation. The evidence for distinct ebCR programs in special patients' groups is less clear. Studies on Tele-CR predominantly included low-risk patients. Hence, it is questionable, whether clinical results derived from studies in conventional ebCR may be transferred to Tele-CR. Conclusions: ET is the cornerstone of ebCR. Additional PI should be included, adjusted to the needs of the individual patient. PE is able to promote patients self-management, empowerment, and motivation. Diversity-sensitive structures should be established to interact with the needs of special patient groups and gender issues. Tele-CR should be further investigated as a valuable tool to implement ebCR more widely and effectively.},

  abstract  = {Background Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) has improved survival in high-risk childhood leukemia but is associated with long-term sequelae such as impaired pulmonary function and reduced exercise capacity impacting quality of life. Methods A convenience sample of 17 patients after allo-HSCT (HSCT—12 male, age 15.7±6.7 years, time after HSCT 5.3±2.8 years) underwent pulmonary function testing, echocardiography, and an incremental exercise test on a bike. Physical activity and health-related quality of life were assessed by questionnaires (7-day physical activity recall, PEDS-QL). Seventeen healthy age- and gender-matched controls served as control group (CG) for results of pulmonary function and exercise testing. Results HSCT showed reduced pulmonary function (HSCT vs. CG: FEV1 90.5±14.0 vs. 108.0±8.7\%pred; FVC 88.4±19.3 vs. 107.6±6.9\%pred, DLCO 75.3±23.6 vs. 104.9±12.8\%pred) and exercise capacity (VO2peak 89±30.8\%pred, CG 98±17.5\%pred; Wmax 84±21.7\%pred, CG 115±22.8\%pred), but no relevant cardiac dysfunction and a good quality of life (PEDS-QL mean overall score 83.3±10.7). Differences in peak oxygen uptake between groups were mostly explained by 5 adolescent patients who underwent total body irradiation for conditioning. They showed significantly reduced diffusion capacity and reduced peak oxygen uptake. Patients reported a mean time of inactivity of 777±159min/day, moderate activity of 110±107 min/day, hard activity of 35±36 min/day, and very hard activity of 23±22 min/day. A higher amount of inactivity was associated with a lower peak oxygen uptake (correlation coefficient tau -0.48, p=0.023). Conclusions This pilot study shows that although patients after allo-HSCT reported a good quality of life, regular physical activity and exercise capacity are reduced in survivors of stem cell transplantation, especially in adolescents who are treated with total body irradiation for conditioning. Factors hindering regular physical activity need to be identified and exercise counseling should be part of follow-up visits in these patients.},

  abstract  = {Chronic stress, even stress of a moderate intensity related to daily life, is widely acknowledged to be a predisposing or precipitating factor in neuropsychiatric diseases. There is a clear relationship between disturbances induced by stressful stimuli, especially long-lasting stimuli, and cognitive deficits in rodent models of affective disorders. Regular physical activity has a positive effect on the central nervous system (CNS) functions, contributes to an improvement in mood and of cognitive abilities (including memory and learning), and is correlated with an increase in the expression of the neurotrophic factors and markers of synaptic plasticity as well as a reduction in the inflammatory factors. Studies published so far show that the energy challenge caused by physical exercise can affect the CNS by improving cellular bioenergetics, stimulating the processes responsible for the removal of damaged organelles and molecules, and attenuating inflammation processes. Regular physical activity brings another important benefit: increased stress robustness. The evidence from animal studies is that a sedentary lifestyle is associated with stress vulnerability, whereas a physically active lifestyle is associated with stress resilience. Here, we have performed a comprehensive PubMed Search Strategy for accomplishing an exhaustive literature review. In this review, we discuss the findings from experimental studies on the molecular and neurobiological mechanisms underlying the impact of exercise on brain resilience. A thorough understanding of the mechanisms underlying the neuroprotective potential of preconditioning exercise and of the role of exercise in stress resilience, among other things, may open further options for prevention and therapy in the treatment of CNS diseases.},

The objective of this study was to assess physical activity, fitness and health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in adolescents with established diagnosis of CNO versus healthy controls (HC). Methods 15 patients with CNO and 15 age and gender matched HC aged 13-18 years, completed questionnaires, performed an incremental exercise test with gas exchange measures up to voluntary fatigue and wore an accelerometer over 7 days at home to assess physical activity behavior. Results At the time of assessment, 5 CNO patients were in clinical, one in radiological and 5 in clinical and radiological remission. 7 did not receive any therapy at the time of assessment. The results of the exercise test and of the accelerometry did not show any significant difference between CNO and HC. However, reported sports participation was lower in patients with CNO and PedsQL3.0 and 4.0 showed significant lower values in most of the scores indicating reduced HRQOL. Conclusion Although most CNO patients showed a favorable course of disease without any relevant differences in objective measurements of physical activity and fitness versus HC at the time of assessment, questionnaires revealed perceived limitations. Further studies are needed to measure HRQOL and to validate questionnaires in patients with CNO against objective measures including more participants with a higher level of disease activity.},

Physical activity (PA) and a Mediterranean diet lead to cancer reduction or survival benefits and increased quality of life (QoL), but this is yet unstudied among LFS. TP53 PV carriers (PVC) and their relatives were questioned on dietary patterns (Mediterranean Diet Adherence Screener), PA (Freiburg Questionnaire), QoL (Short-form-Health-Survey-12), smoking, alcohol consumption and perception of cancer risk in a German bi-centric study from March 2020-June 2021.
