NCT05253638
Systemic lupus erythematosis (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by production of autoantibodies and the deposition of immune complexes, affecting a wide range of organs. The clinical onset of SLE derives from the interaction between genetic predisposition and environmental, immunological and hormonal factors, with a strong predilection for women of childbearing age. SLE is usually diagnosed in young women in the third decade of life and represents the leading cause of systemic disease with secondary kidney involvement. Lupus nephritis (LN) occurs in \~50% of patients with SLE and is the most common, but not the only, cause of kidney injury in SLE. LN typically develops early in the disease course, generally within the first 6 to 36 months, and may be present at initial diagnosis. Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is a pleiotropic inflammatory cytokine with regulatory roles in innate and adaptive immunity and is implicated in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases including SLE. MIF actively participates in multiple stages of the inflammatory response, acting on cells directly and/or potentiating the effects exerted by other stimuli. MIF overcomes the inhibitory effects of glucocorticoids on TNF alpha, IL-1 beta, IL-6, and IL-8 production. MIF is implicated in the pathogenesis of other autoimmune diseases including rheumatoid arthritis (RA), type 1 diabetes, multiple sclerosis and Guillain Barré syndrome.

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak has not only changed the lifestyles of people globally but has also resulted in other challenges, such as the requirement of self-isolation and distance learning. The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in an inability to go out to exercise and a reduction in movement, so the demand for exercise at home has increased. To investigate the relationships between a Nintendo Ring Fit Adventure (RFA) intervention and improvements in running time, cardiac force index (CFI), centimeters per beat (CMPB), sleep quality, and mood disorders.
