  • Title: [Clinical features and physical fitness parameters in athletes with cardiac connective tissue dysplasia syndrome].
    Author: Mikhaĭlova AV, Smolenskiĭ AV.
    Journal: Klin Med (Mosk); 2004; 82(8):44-8. PubMed ID: 15468725.
    Abstract:
    Seventy-seven athletes with different manifestations of the cardiac connective tissue dysplasia (CCTD) syndrome (mitral prolapse (MP), anomalously located chordae (ALC) of the left ventricle and/or their combination) and 23 athletes without signs of CCTD syndrome were examined. The purpose of the study was to determine the specific features of the phenotypic picture, ECG data, and physical fitness in athletes with the manifestations of CCTD syndrome. The characteristic features of anthropometric data (higher heights and decreased body mass index), a larger number of the phenotypic signs of CCTD, the specific features of ECG, and lower parameters of physical fitness and aerobic capacities in the groups of MP, ALC, and/or their combination were identified; the impact of MP and ALC on these parameters was evaluated.
