Adaptations of central arterial viscoelasticity with aerobic training

本研究的目的是确定1）心肺适能与中心动脉粘弹性的关系，2）有氧训练对中心动脉粘弹性的影响。在第一项研究中，与年龄相关的中心动脉粘度增加被维持心肺功能所抑制。然而，在第二项研究中，当进行10周的有氧训练时，训练对中心动脉粘度没有影响。因此，本研究提示，改善中心动脉血粘度可能需要较长时间的有氧运动，但需较短时间，如10周。

The aim of this study was to determine 1) relationship between cardiorespiratory fitness and central arterial viscoelasticity, and 2) effect of aerobic training on central arterial viscoelasticity. In first study, age-associated increase in central arterial viscosity was suppressed by maintenance of cardiorespiratory fitness. However, in second study, when performing 10-week aerobic training, the central arterial viscosity was not changed by the training. Therefore, this study suggests that the improvement of central arterial viscosity may need relative longer term of aerobic exercise, but shorter such a 10-week.
