  • SPECIAL ISSUE ON "EXERCISE AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITY IN RHEUMATOLOGY"

    Moving beyond pharmacological treatment: the role of exercise in rheumatic diseases.

    Physical activity and structured exercise are increasingly recognized as essential components of comprehensive care in rheumatology, with growing evidence supporting their benefits on disease outcomes, physical function, quality of life, and long-term health.

    To promote scientific research and interdisciplinary discussion in this rapidly evolving field, Reumatismo is launching a Special Issue dedicated to Exercise and Physical Activity in Rheumatology.

     

    We welcome original research, reviews, and scientifically relevant contributions addressing:

    · Exercise interventions and rehabilitation in inflammatory and non-inflammatory rheumatic diseases.

    · Physical activity, disease activity, functional outcomes, and quality of life.

    · Exercise prescription, personalized training, and multidisciplinary care.

    · Sports participation and physical performance in patients with rheumatic diseases.

    · Innovative approaches, digital health, and technology-supported exercise programs.

    · Implementation of physical activity into routine rheumatology practice.

     

    Interested in contributing?

    Authors must prepare the manuscript in English and submit it selecting the section “EXERCISE AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITY IN RHEUMATOLOGY” in accordance with the Reumatismo’s guidelines for authors.

    Rather than restricting submissions to a fixed deadline or requiring a predefined collection of manuscripts, this initiative provides a dedicated submission pathway, allowing eligible articles to undergo peer review and, if accepted, to be published progressively.

    Accepted papers will be published as Early Access and subsequently be brought together in a dedicated Special Issue.

     

    Guest Editors: Simone Parisi, MD (Rheumatology Unit, AOU Città della Salute e della Scienza di Torino, Turin, Italy) & Luca Semperboni, MD (Medical Lab, Turin, Italy)

    “Our ambition is to establish a scientific forum connecting rheumatologists, rehabilitation specialists, physiotherapists, exercise scientists, and researchers, strengthening the role of physical activity as an integral part of evidence-based rheumatology care".
