Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
It is with great pleasure that we present this Special Issue entitled "Effectiveness of Physical Exercise for People with Chronic Diseases". We intend to bring together the latest productions and studies involving chronic diseases and physical exercise as an important tool for intervention, management and the prevention of the worsening of symptoms. We will consider chronic diseases that promote health conditions that limit activities of daily living, require continuous medical care and follow-up, and can last for 1 year or more and cause death or disability. Thus, we hope to bring together works that can add knowledge; raise discussions based on the most carefully gathered evidence; strengthen integration between researchers and scientists around the world; and reinforce the importance of joint action among prevention measures, the development and implementation of public policies, health education and a greater understanding that adherence to healthier lifestyle habits contributes significantly to the reduction of the onset of these diseases in our society.
Dr. Laisa Liane Paineiras-Domingos
