Discussion

Randomized trial shows decreased inflammatory markers with combined exercise in COPD patients, suggesting an anti-inflammatory benefit.

Combined resistance and aerobic training significantly reduced inflammatory markers in COPD patients.
IL-6 levels showed a greater decline in the intervention group compared to the control group.
Participants in both training groups experienced notable improvement in walking distance and oxygen saturation.
These findings indicate that added resistance training enhances the benefits of aerobic exercise in managing inflammation.

Acheche et al. (2025) studied this question.
