| الملخص: | Depression decreases the quality of life of the elderly. An exercise can help overcome this problem. Therefore, an exercise in the elderly is needed. Senam Jantung Sehat Seri-I (SJSS-I) was one of the proposed sport for the elderly. Oxidative stress that occurs in depressed elderly is characterised by an increase in plasma NF-kB levels. This research aimed to investigate the effects of SJSS-I in enhancing the physical fitness while decreasing the Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS)-15 score and plasma NF-kB level in the elderly. The experimental design was involved 30 elderly aged individuals with >60 years that further categorised into mild and moderate depression level, andthen completed the SJSS-I for 3 times a week for 12 weeks. Physical fitness was measured by the 6-minute test, GDS-15 score, and peripheral blood withdrawal done in pre- and post-workout. Plasma NF-kB level was measured by ELISA assay. A paired t-test and Wilcoxon test were used in statistical analysis. The results showed the physical fitness for mild levels was higher than moderate depression (35.273 + 8.86 m vs 264.40 + 118.18 m; p<0.001. Depressed GDS scores and NF-kB plasma levels were lower in mild depression group than moderate depression group (3.00 vs 7.00; p = 0.001 and 7.60 + 4.17 pg/ml vs 8.86 + 3.85 pg/ml; p<0.001). SJSS greatly imrpoved of the physical fitness with a decrease in GDS-15 scores and plasma NF-kB in the elderly with mildly depression than those with moderate level of depression. |
