However, immunosuppression with calcineurin inhibitors that inhibit the mTOR signaling pathway may improve lethal length.\n\nIt is also thought that post-transplant treatment regimens contribute to delayed recovery of decreased bone mineral density and increased fracture risk.\n\nGreater muscle mass, as measured by creatinine clearance at 1 year after transplantation, was associated with longer recipient and allograft survival.\n\nThe results of previous studies indicate low cardiovascular fitness in patients after liver transplantation.\n\nSince after liver transplantation, cardiovascular diseases cause 19 to 42% of deaths not related to the liver, performing aerobic exercises to obtain and maintain cardiovascular fitness after liver transplantation can reduce the mortality rate. After transplanting, reduced significantly.\n\nConsidering the important role of the immune system in transplant rejection, the safety of sports training is very important in terms of not over-activating the immune system and endangering the life of the transplanted tissue. In previous studies related to exercise and immune system activity and inflammatory cytokines after transplantation, it has been shown that moderate exercise including aerobic and resistance exercises can inhibit inflammatory cytokines and have beneficial effects on the immune system.\n\nHigh levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) in the period after transplant surgery are associated with an increased risk of transplant rejection.\n\nAerobic exercise reduces levels of inflammatory cytokine TNF-α and markers of liver function in patients with chronic liver diseases.\n\nAccording to this evidence, it seems that doing sports exercises is effective in reducing the risk of transplant rejection and modulating the patient's immune system. Acute graft rejection occurs days to weeks after transplantation. The immune system can see the transplanted organ as foreign and attack it, destroy it and lead to transplant rejection.\n\nConsidering the mentioned benefits of exercise therapy after liver transplantation, it is possible that the early start of exercise therapy in the hospitalization phase leads to a reduction in the risk of transplant rejection and improvement of allograft residues in patients after liver transplantation.\n\nConsidering that the current evidence shows that there is no use of a specific rehabilitation protocol in the hospitalization phase of patients after liver transplantation, we intend to evaluate its effects with changes in the common physiotherapy program in these departments according to the specific conditions of these patients. In other words, despite the acceptable therapeutic effects, the use of a combined protocol of aerobic and resistance exercises in the hospitalization phase of these patients has not been reported so far."}, "eligibilityModule"=>{"sex"=>"ALL", "stdAges"=>["ADULT", "OLDER_ADULT"], "minimumAge"=>"18 years", "healthyVolunteers"=>false, "eligibilityCriteria"=>"Inclusion Criteria:\n\n1.
