A study on the physical fitness and values of blood chemistry on running group in old men

本研究的目的是为研究运动猝死的发生机制提供基础资料。对参加过马拉松比赛的老年人进行力量和血液生化检测。1990年，对14名参加马拉松的老年人(平均年龄61.2岁)进行了体力和血液生化测定。1991年继续对7名参加马拉松比赛(平均年龄68.2岁)的受试者进行身体状况测试，并对其中7名受试者参加马拉松比赛前后的血液生化检测结果进行了研究。在力量测试中，人与人之间的力量测试差异很大，但受试者总体上比一般老年人强壮得多。有几名受试者的心电图出现异常，但认为继续锻炼不会造成麻烦。血液生化测试结果反映了受试者的高龄和锻炼的效果。目前正在研究运动引起的生化血液测试的变化。这些结果并不能轻易地为运动中猝死的问题提供科学的答案。因此，计划以此为基础，收集更多同类信息，研究让老年人安全锻炼的体检类型。

The purpose of this research was to obtain basic information for studying the mechanism of sudden death during exercise. In it, strength and biochemical blood tests were performed on elderly people who had run in marathons.In 1990, the physical condition at rest of 14 subjects (average age 61.2 years) was determined by making electrocardiograms and testing their strength and blood biochemistry. In 1991, the tests on their physical condition were continued and the results of biochemical blood tests carried out on seven of the subjects before and after running in a marathon (average age 68.2 years) were studied.In the strength tests, a great variation was seen from person to person but the subjects on the whole were much stronger than the average elderly person.Abnormalities were seen in the electrocardiograms of several of the subjects but it was considered that they would cause no trouble if they continued to exercise as they had been doing.The high age of the subjects and the effects of exercise were reflected in the results of the blood biochemistry tests. The changes in biochemical blood tests resulting from exercise are being studied at present.These results do not provide an easy scientific answer to the problem of sudden death during exercise. Therefore, using them as a basis, it is planned to collect more of the same kind of information and study types of medical check that will enable elderly people to exercise safely.
