Résumé : |
Objective To examine the efficacy of a physical activity behavioral intervention for improving outcomes of body composition in persons with multiple sclerosis (MS). Design Secondary analysis of data from a randomized controlled trial. Setting University research laboratory. Participants Ambulatory persons with MS (N=82). Intervention A 6-month, internet-delivered physical activity behavioral intervention designed to increase lifestyle physical activity, primarily walking. The behavioral intervention was based on principles of social cognitive theory. Main Outcome Measures Whole-body bone mineral content (BMC), bone mineral density (BMD), and soft tissue composition, using dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry. Results There were no significant differences between conditions posttrial on body composition outcomes using the adjusted critical value (P<.008 there was a significant effect of the intervention on whole-body bmc and bmd using unadjusted critical value percent body fat mass approached significance criteria. not lean soft tissue or index> Conclusions Our results provide preliminary evidence that an internet-delivered lifestyle physical activity intervention might improve bone health and body composition in MS. Such findings are important considering that physical activity is a modifiable behavior with the potential to confer long-term benefits for the prevention and management of fracture risk and comorbidities among those with MS. |
