Effects of Physical Activity and Exercise Interventions on Health Outcomes in Occupational Drivers: A Systematic Review
No full textBackground: Occupational drivers are exposed to a wide range of risk factors, including sedentary behavior and physical inactivity, which can contribute to various chronic diseases. However, exercise interventions are likely to alleviate the negative associations and reduce chronic disease risks. This systematic review aimed to inventorize research studies investigating the effects of physical activity and exercise interventions on health outcomes in occupational drivers, and to assess interventions that have demonstrated effectiveness on health outcomes in occupational drivers.Methods: The electronic databases "Web of Science," "Scopus," and "PubMed" were searched using keywords related to "occupational drivers," "exercise," and "health outcomes." Studies were included if they examined the effects of physical activity and exercise among occupational drivers on the following health outcomes: pain, disability, lifestyle factors (sleep, weight, physical activity, nutrition), fatigue, stress, and cardiometabolic risk factors. The methodological quality of the studies was assessed by the Cochrane Risk of Bias tools for randomized and non-randomized studies.Results: Fourteen articles were included (three randomized and 11 non-randomized controlled trials). All studies were judged to have an overall risk of bias as "some concerns, low, moderate or serious." Evidence suggests that stretching and isometric exercises have significantly improved pain, disability, and fatigue. In contrast, multicomponent lifestyle interventions have enhanced physical activity levels, cardiometabolic risk factors, anthropometrics (body mass index, weight, waist circumference), sleep, and dietary intake among occupational drivers.Conclusion: The available evidence indicates the potential benefits of exercise interventions and physical activity for health outcomes in occupational drivers. However, high-quality studies are needed in the future to establish stronger evidence supporting the effect of the exercise intervention.The author(s) disclosed receipt of the following financial support for the research, authorship, and/or publication of this article: This research was supported by Higher Education Commission of Pakistan (HEC), Grant No. HEC/HRD/OSS-III/ Batch-3/Belgium/2022/19745
Walnuts ameliorated hepatic inflammation and toxicity induced by thermally oxidised high-fat diet in mice
No full textThis study examined the effects of thermally oxidised high-fat diet (Oxi-HFD) induced toxicity on mice. Biochemical and histological analyses revealed that the Oxi-HFD group had higher levels of fat accumulation in their livers compared to the control groups. Mice fed on Oxi-HFD exhibited higher levels of hepatic inflammatory markers, altered lipid profile, decreased antioxidant status, and increased body weight. Oxidized high-fat diets significantly increased the amounts of hepatic lipase, phospholipids, and lysophospholipids. However, supplementation of walnut extract improved hepatic lipase, phospholipids, and lysophospholipid levels in mice. Additionally, the consumption of walnut extract improved body weight, lipid profiles (TC, TG, HDL, and LDL), and antioxidant status (GSH, CAT, GSH-Px, SOD, and TBARS). Furthermore, walnut extract supplementation down-regulated the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-6 and TNF-α). In conclusion, walnut extract is a valuable source of hepatoprotective substances that enhance antioxidant status and reduce hepatic inflammation.The work was conducted at the Department of Biochemistry, University of Malakand, Pakistan.
