To compare markers of health associated with chronic diseases between yoga and non-yoga participants.
30 participants were categorized as either: 1) "Yoga" engaging in yoga ≥2 times/week for ≥6 months, or 2) "Non-yoga" not engaging in yoga.
Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) and Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II) scores were significantly different between the yoga and non-yoga groups (PSS: 8.0 vs. 17.5, respectively, p < 0.05; BDI-II: 1.0 vs. 5.5, respectively, p < 0.05). No significant differences were evident between groups for inflammatory markers nor Complex V of the mitochondrial electron transport chain. The erythrocyte sedimentation rate values differed between groups based on clinical cutoffs, with yoga participants categorized as normal (11.0 mm) and non-yoga above normal (21.5 mm).
This research supports that yoga participation is associated with lower PSS and BDI-II scores but does not support a relationship with markers of inflammation. Further research is warranted.
比较瑜伽参与者和非瑜伽参与者与慢性疾病相关的健康指标。
将 30 名参与者分为以下两类:1)“瑜伽”,每周至少进行 2 次瑜伽练习,持续时间至少 6 个月;2)“非瑜伽”,不进行瑜伽练习。
瑜伽组和非瑜伽组在感知压力量表(PSS)和贝克抑郁量表-II(BDI-II)评分上有显著差异(PSS:分别为 8.0 和 17.5,p<0.05;BDI-II:分别为 1.0 和 5.5,p<0.05)。两组之间的炎症标志物和线粒体电子传递链复合物 V 没有明显差异。根据临床切点,红细胞沉降率值在组间存在差异,瑜伽组参与者被归类为正常(11.0mm),而非瑜伽组高于正常(21.5mm)。
本研究支持瑜伽参与与较低的 PSS 和 BDI-II 评分相关,但与炎症标志物无关。需要进一步的研究。
