a Effect of Aerobic Exercise Training on Serum Levels of High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol A Meta-analysis Satoru Kodama, MD; Shira Tanaka, MS; Kazumi Saito, MD; Miao Shu, MS; Yasuko Sone, MS; Fumiko Onitake, MS, RD; Emiko Suzuki, PhD; Hitoshi Shimano, MD, PhD: Shigeru Yamamoto, PhD, RD; Kazuo Kondo, MD, PhD: Yasuo Ohashi, PhD; Nobuhiro Yamada, MD, PhD; Hirohito Sone, MD, PhD Background: Acrobic exercise is believed to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease partially through increas- ing serum levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C). However, ths effect varies considerably among exercise intervention studies. Methods: Electronic database searches of MEDLINE (ase. amined the effect of exercise training on HDL-C level 2005) for randomized controlled trials that ex- Results: Twenty”! change in HDL-C level was statistically significant but modest (2.53 mg/dl. [0.065 mmol/L]; P<.001). Mi mal weekly exercise volume for increasing HDL-C level ‘was estimated to be 900 keal of energy expenditure per ‘week oF 120 minutes of exercise per week, Univatiat ‘gression analysis indicated that every 10-minute prolon- gation of exercise per session was associated with an ap- proximately 1.4-mg/dL (0.036-mmol/L) increase in HDL-C level. In contrast, there was no significant ass0- re articles were included. Mean net ciation between exercise frequency or intensity. Mul- Liple meta-regression analyses demonstrated that sub- jects with a body mass index (calculated as weight in kilograms divided by height in meters squared) less than 28 and total cholesterol level of 220 mg/l. [5.7 mmoV/L] ‘ormore experienced an approximately 2.l-mg/dL. (0.054- mmol/L larger increase in HDL-C level than these with a body mass index of 28 or more and total cholesterol level less than 220 mg/dL. (5.7 mmoVL). Conclusions: Regular acrobic exercise modestly in- ‘ereases HDL-C level. There appears to exist a minimum, ‘exercise volume fora significant increase in HDL-C level Exercise duration per session was the most importante ‘ment of an exercise prescription. Exercise was more fective in subjects with intially high total cholesterol le cls of low body mass index.

Finally, 25 articles (35 rls) met our inclusion criteria. Sample sizes varied between 9 and 200, with a total of 1404 subjects (mean age range, 23-75 years) (Table 1). The ‘mean intervention period was 27.4 weeks. Subjects were not limited to specific ethnie groups, but in many sludies information on ethnicity was lacking. yon The quality of tials was assessed. according to the scale described by Jadad etal? with each trial evalu- ated according to randomization, double-blinding, withdrawals, and dropouts. The mean (SD) score was comparatively low (1.5 [0.5] ofa pos- sible 5 points). The quality assess- ment criterion that permitted dis- crimination between studies involved withdrawals and dropouts.

For 21 tials in which the weekly estimated EE was greater than 900 keal, the pooled.

EFFECTS OF SUBJECT CHARACTERISTICS ON CHANGE IN HDL-C LEVEL BY EXERCISE TRAINING Multivariate analysis was per- formed by means of regression mod- els o investigate the extent to which, characteristics of subjects indepen- dently contributed to the change in HDL-C level (Rabble 5). Two step- wise regression analyses using model 1 and model 2 showed that subjects with a higher TC level oF ‘who were less obese responded be ler to exercise training, In model in subjects with a mean TC level of 220 mg/dL (5.7 mmol/L) or greater and mean BMI less than 28, ‘ise training resulted in an average of 2.L-mp/dl. (0.054-mmol/L) (5.1 limes) larger net elevation in HDL-C level than when the mean TC level was less than 220 mg/dL (5.7 mmol/L) and mean BMI was 28 or areater. By contrast, age, percent age of men, HDL-C level, and aero- bic capacity were not significant pre- dictors of MDHC. See ‘Our meta-analysis indicated that the effect of aerobic training resulted. in a 2.53-mg/dL (0.065-mmol/L) elevation of net HDL-C change (Figure 2).

This Suggests that in improving blood HDL-C values, increasing time per session is beiter than performing smultiple brie exercise sessions when total time for exercise is lated, a3 is the case for many people. Al- though the Centers for Disease Con- trol and Prevention and the Ameri- can College of Sports Medicine’? recommend about 30 minutes of moderateintensity physical activ- itysuchasbrisk walking on most (or preferably all) days, our analyses suggest that a longer duration per session of continuous exercise than that recommendation is necessary for a significant inerease tn HDL-C level. However, no study in this analysis reported weekly exercise frc- quency of twice oF less: the fre- quency in those studies ranged from 2.3106.1 workouts per week. Ther. fore, additional research is needed to determine the minimal exercise frequency required to modily HDL-C levels.
