Abstract

Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine the effect of TAI CHI TRAINING on TNF-a, BDNF serum levels and cognitive and physical function in women with STROKE.Methods: 20 women in Qom city with STROKE (mean age: 65.80±3.55y, weight: 68.41±14.00 kg and body mass index: 26.33 ± 5.15kg.m2) voluntarily were divided randomly into Tai Chi group (10 patients) and control group (10 patients). Serum BDNF and TNF-a were analyzed by using an ELISA kits in pretest and post-test. Cognitive function were assessed by the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE). Also pretest and post-test measurements were recorded for the timed upand-go test. Tai Chi group trained 6 weeks, three times per week for 60 minutes (consisted of a 10-minutes warm-up period, 40-minutes simplified Tai Chi exercises performed, and a 10- minutes cool-down period).Data were analyzed using the independent samples t-test and paired samples t-test.Results: Tai Chi group showed a significant improvement in serum TNF-a and DYNAMIC BALANCE (p£0.05). Despite the increase in serum BDNF and improvement cognitive function, no significant differences were observed between the two groups.Conclusion: Therefore the findings of this study suggest that TAI CHI TRAINING as a low intensity and simple training can improve women balance and inflammatory status with STROKE.
