Resumen
Antecedentes: Pruebas consistentes sugieren que el ejercicio mejora la cognición y la toma de decisiones, con pruebas preliminares que sugieren que los factores neurotróficos derivados del cerebro (BDNF) pueden mediar estos efectos en actividades de intervalos de alta intensidad, como en la práctica del fútbol. Se realizó una revisión sistemática de estudios sobre jugadores de fútbol o intervenciones en tareas futbolísticas que evaluaran la causalidad del ejercicio o su relación con cambios en el nivel basal de BDNF. Métodos: La búsqueda se realizó en PubMed, SPORTDiscus, Cochrane y FECYT (Web of Sciences, CCC, DIIDW, KJD, MEDLINE, RSCI y SCIELO) de acuerdo con las directrices para la realización de revisiones sistemáticas en el ámbito de las ciencias del deporte. Resultados: De los 44 estudios identificados inicialmente, se revisaron siete en su totalidad y se extrajeron y analizaron sus medidas de resultado. En el estudio científico del fútbol, los estudios publicados hasta la fecha han explorado la relación de los niveles séricos de BDNF y otros factores de la función cognitiva con la expresión genética de polimorfismos, las condiciones antropométricas y de forma física, el efecto de ejercicio agudo del partido y las acciones típicas del partido como el remate de cabeza. Conclusiones: La heterogeneidad de diseños y variables evaluadas en los estudios relacionados con el ejercicio o interacción del BDNF y la práctica del fútbol no permite determinar de forma concluyente que exista una relación con la causa o efecto de factores genéticos, antropométricos o condicionales que deriven en un aumento del BDNF por acciones durante la práctica del fútbol.
Background: Consistent evidence suggests that exercise improves cognition and decision making, with preliminary evidence suggesting that brain-derived neurotrophic factors (BDNFs) may mediate these effects on high-intensity interval activities, such as in football playing. We conducted a systematic review of studies on football players or football task interventions that evaluated the causality of exercise or its relationship with changes in the basal BDNF level. Methods: The search was conducted in PubMed, SPORTDiscus, Cochrane, and FECYT (Web of Sciences, CCC, DIIDW, KJD, MEDLINE, RSCI, and SCIELO) according to the guidelines for performing systematic reviews in the sport sciences field. Results: From the 44 studies initially identified, seven studies were fully reviewed, and their outcome measures were extracted and analysed. In the scientific study of football, the studies published thus far have explored the relationship of serum BDNF levels and other cognitive function factors with the genetic expression of polymorphisms, the anthropometric and fitness conditions, the acute exercise effect of the match, and the typical actions of the match such as heading. Conclusions: The heterogeneity of designs and variables evaluated in studies related to BDNF exercise or interaction and football playing does not allow us to conclusively determine that there is a relationship with the cause or effect of genetic, anthropometric, or conditional factors that derive from an increase in BDNF due to actions during the playing of football.
