Research Progress on Effect of Exercise on Resting Metabolic Rate in Metabolic Diseases
Objective Based on the background of the increasing prevalence of metabolic diseases globally over the past 20 years,this review summarizes the characteristics of resting metabolic rate(RMR)in metabolic diseases and focuses on discussing the potential pathways of exercise to improve RMR,aiming to provide new ideas for the management and treatment of metabolic diseases.Methods Through literature review,this study systematically searched and collated research on obesity,hypertension,diabetes,metabolic syn-drome,exercise,and resting metabolic rate,summarizing the RMR characteristics of these diseases,the impact of exercise on RMR,and related pathways.Results and Conclusion RMR plays an important role in managing metabolic diseases and has a certain role in predicting weight changes and metabolic levels.Acute exercise can change RMR through increasing muscle repair activities,sympa-thetic nerve excitability,and post-exercise oxygen consumption;regular exercise can affect RMR by changing body composition,hor-mone levels,and skeletal muscle metabolism.For metabolic diseases,more attention should be paid to the role of time management in exercise in the future,such as the impact of different periods and durations of exercise on RMR,which will help to formulate exercise prescriptions.
