Fatigue and plasma cytokine concentrations at rest and during exercise in patients with sarcoidosis
Conclusion: Treated sarcoidosis patients exhibit a relation between physical fatigue, reduced motivation and total fatigue and pre-exercise plasma IL-1[beta] concentrations. Acute exercise does not increase PCLs. Whether the reduced MRC score and physical fatigue in treated patients is related to the therapy or to the underlying inflammatory process is difficult to determine. Please cite this [...]
