Experimental: MAST program
Mixed Aerobic and Strength Training program (MAST): Each exercise session consisted of 10 minutes of warm-up, 15-30 minutes of interval aerobic training by cycle ergometer according to the program, 20 minutes of strength training exercises, and 10 minutes of cool-down by stretching.

MAST program: twice a week for 4 months

Kein Eingriff: UC

Maximal Oxygen Uptake
Zeitfenster: At baseline and after 4 months of intervention
|
To obtain peak oxygen uptake (VO2max; ml-1/min-1/kg), a symptom-limited exercise stress test was performed on a cycle ergometer.
The test was preceded by a 2-minute warm-up at the intensity of 20 W. The first test load was 20 W, and was increased by 20 W at each 2-minute stage until the participants could no longer continue, i.e., they were unable to maintain pedaling frequency > 40 rpm, they achieved a respiratory exchange ratio of more than 1.0, or clinical criteria for test termination was observed.
VO2max was measured and monitored with a breath-by-breath gas exchange system.

Cerebral Blood Flow Velocity (BFV)
Zeitfenster: At baseline and after 4 months of intervention
|
Cerebral BFV was monitored using Transcranial Doppler Ultrasound.11
The middle cerebral artery was insonated from the temporal window by placing the 2-MegaHertZ (MHz) probe against the skin of the temporal region above the zygomatic arch.
The probe was positioned to obtain maximal BFV and was fixed at the desired angle using a 3-dimensional positioning system.
Once instrumented, BFV was continuously recorded throughout ten minutes of supine rest and 10-minutes on a table tilted to 80° from the horizontal position (head-up with foot plate support).

Trail Making Test
Zeitfenster: At baseline and after 4 months of intervention
|
The Trail Making (TM) test is a measure of shifting attention.
Participants are required to sequentially connect a series of numbered circles (Part A), and then to alternate between numbers and letters sequentially (Part B) (e.g., A-1-B-2-C-3..).
Any participant who has not completed Part B within the standard 5 minutes (300 seconds) allotted for the task will be considered unable to complete the task.
The scores in Part A (TM-A), Part B (TM-B) T scores ( age, education adjusted), and their difference (TM-B -TM-A) were calculated and used to measure executive function, i.e., lower scores indicates better performance.

Muscle Strength
Zeitfenster: At baseline and after 4 months of intervention
|
MAST sessions were held twice a week for 16 weeks.
Each exercise session consisted of 10 min of warm-up, 15-30 min of interval aerobic training by cycle ergometer according to the program, 20 min of strength training exercises, and 10 min of cool-down by stretching.
The target heart rate (HR) increased progressively from 50% up to 80% of HR reserve by the end of the intervention period.The Karvonen formula ([(HRmax - HRrest)×(0.50 to 0.80)] + HRrest) was used to calculate the target HR.
During every training session a new wireless computerized ECG monitoring system was used.
After aerobic training, the strength training program was performed.
Exercises used body mass as resistance and included squat, step-up-squat, step-up, heel rise, and sit-ups.
Dumbbells were used as extra weight (5 or 10% of body weight) during other exercises except for sit-ups.
The control group participated in an educational session once a month and kept physical activity diaries during the intervention period.
