Home-based exercise trial in chronic liver disease testing aerobic versus combined training effects
This is a randomized controlled trial comparing home-based aerobic exercise (AE), combined aerobic and resistance exercise (ARE), and control (physical activity counseling) in adult patients with chronic liver disease who have complications including sarcopenia, malnutrition, and fatigue. The 8-week intervention measured oxygen consumption, muscle strength, body composition, frailty, fatigue, and quality of life before and after the program. The abstract describes the study design and planned measurements but does not report the actual results or findings.
