Physical activity can improve health as well as reduce stress and the risk of developing several widespread diseases. However, there exists no accepted standard biomedical examination-method for stress evaluation. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of regular physical activity on stress and wellness as well as the evaluation of potential biomarkers in this field. This study included 105 people (mean age = 36.57 ± 1.4 years) who were randomly assigned into the exercise group 1 (EG-1) (n = 41), the exercise group 2 (EG-2) (n = 30), and the control group (CG) (n = 34). Measurements of stress and wellness were obtained by Multiscan BC-OXI before and after experimental period. This device presents a multifrequency segmental body composition 3D analyser with digital pulse oximeter. The key indicators of stress as well as for wellness were significantly improved in the EG-1. Parasympathetic activity showed significant changes as potential stress biomarker. Statistically significant gender differences were not observed in the comparable groups. The results suggest that the stress resistance and well-being significantly improved in the EG-1 due to regular physical activity. However, further research is necessary to determine effects of physical activity on integral health indicators.
体育活动不仅可以改善健康状况，还可以减轻压力，降低罹患多种常见疾病的风险。然而，目前还没有被广泛认可的用于评估压力的标准生物医学检查方法。本研究旨在探究规律的体育活动对压力和健康的影响，并评估该领域的潜在生物标志物。该研究纳入了 105 名志愿者（平均年龄=36.57±1.4 岁），他们被随机分为运动组 1（EG-1）（n=41）、运动组 2（EG-2）（n=30）和对照组（CG）（n=34）。在实验前后，使用 Multiscan BC-OXI 对压力和健康状况进行了测量。这是一种具有数字脉搏血氧仪的多频分段体成分 3D 分析器。EG-1 中的压力和健康的关键指标都有显著改善。副交感神经活动作为潜在的压力生物标志物也发生了显著变化。在可比组中，未观察到统计学意义上的性别差异。结果表明，由于有规律的体育活动，EG-1 中的压力抵抗力和健康状况有显著改善。然而，还需要进一步的研究来确定体育活动对整体健康指标的影响。
