Comment on “The Effect of a Community-Based, Primary Health Care Exercise Program on Inflammatory Biomarkers and Hormone Levels”

Abstract EN

We read with great interest the recent paper by C.

B.

Papini et al.

in which the authors examined “impact of a community-based exercise program in primary care on inflammatory biomarkers and hormone levels” in the 1-year quasiexperimental study [1].

The authors very clearly discussed the relation between exercise and inflammation.

They concluded that community-based exercise program can result in a decrease or maintenance of inflammatory biomarkers after 1 year, and it has the potential to be a viable public health approach for chronic disease prevention.

This study displayed that public health exercise intervention delivered in low-income communities has the potential to use a beneficial effect and improve or maintain inflammatory biomarkers profiles, supporting the prevention of chronic diseases.
