To examine the patterns of upper respiratory tract infections (URTI) in postmenopausal Turkish women and the relationship of moderate aerobic exercise with secretion of salivary IgA and episodes of URTI.
Ninety healthy, sedentary women at ages 45 to 65 years volunteered to participate in a 12-week prospective study. They were randomized to three groups equal in number: indoor exercise, outdoor exercise, and no exercise. The exercising women were supervised during 30 min indoor treadmill walk or outdoor track walking sessions during 5 days/week at 60% of their calculated maximal heart rate. During a 12-week exercise program, episodes suggestive of URTI were recorded. Non-exercising women were followed with weekly telephone calls. The salivary IgA levels were measured in all the subjects before and at the end of the study.
There were significant differences between the exercising and non-exercising women with respect to the number of URTI episodes and the length of URTI symptomatology per episode in favor of exercise. No significant difference was found between the indoor and outdoor exercising groups. The salivary IgA levels showed no significant differences between the three groups and within each group.
Moderate intensity aerobic exercise is associated with fewer episodes of URTI and fewer days of URTI symptomatology per episode in healthy postmenopausal Turkish women, but this does not seem to be related to salivary IgA concentrations.
研究绝经后土耳其女性上呼吸道感染（URTI）的模式，以及中等强度有氧运动与唾液IgA分泌和URTI发作之间的关系。
90名年龄在45至65岁之间、久坐不动的健康女性自愿参与一项为期12周的前瞻性研究。她们被随机分为人数相等的三组：室内运动组、室外运动组和不运动组。运动组女性在每周5天、每次30分钟的室内跑步机行走或室外跑道行走过程中接受监督，运动强度为其计算出的最大心率的60%。在为期12周的运动计划期间，记录疑似URTI的发作情况。不运动的女性通过每周电话随访。在研究开始前和结束时测量所有受试者的唾液IgA水平。
在URTI发作次数和每次URTI症状持续时间方面，运动组和不运动组女性之间存在显著差异，运动组更具优势。室内运动组和室外运动组之间未发现显著差异。三组之间以及每组内部的唾液IgA水平均未显示出显著差异。
中等强度有氧运动与健康绝经后土耳其女性较少的URTI发作次数以及每次URTI症状持续天数相关，但这似乎与唾液IgA浓度无关。
