Abstract

The aim of this study, The comparison of effects Aerobic activity and Caloric restriction on cellular and vascular adhesion molecules in obese women. 40 sedentary Obese woman with mean ± SD age: 20/4±1/26 years, %BF: 26/6± 3/95 and BMI: 30/6±2/81 m/kg2 were selected and randomly allocated to EXP1 (Aerobic activity) , EXP2 (Caloric restriction) , EXP3 (concurrent intervention) and control groups. 8 week Training program in EXP1   included running on treadmill in 50-60 min, 5 day/week, EXP2 --  use a caloric restriction diet with equal energy to EXP1 and EXP3 use a diet and Aerobic activity with energy restriction equal EXP1. Data Analyzing show that weight, BMI and %BF in the experimental groups were significantly decrease. The most change seen in EXP1 equal 6/4%, 6/4%and 1/9% (p<0.05). Result show that the decreases of CRP in EXP1, EXP2 and EXP3 equal %56.6, %25.7 and %44.2. The decrease of CRP significant in EXP2 (Aerobic activity) and EXP3 (concurrent intervention)(p<0.01). Result show that the decreases of Fibrinogen levels in EXP1, EXP2 and EXP3 equal %7.8, %6.2 and %11.7. The decrease of Fibrinogen significant in EXP2 (Aerobic activity) and EXP3 (concurrent intervention)(p<0.01). A low correlation were seen between Baseline and changes CRP and Fibrinogen levels and %BF, weight (p>0.05).
