  • Title: [Effectiveness of the physical training of post-myocardial infarction patients with differing exertion tolerances].
    Author: Barats SS, Lipchenko AA, Vetrov AV.
    Journal: Ter Arkh; 1986; 58(5):111-6. PubMed ID: 3738783.
    Abstract:
    A total of 159 men after myocardial infarction were examined. Of them 73 were engaged in physical training for 11 mos. Its efficacy was analysed after the results of bicycle ergometry taking account of initial exercise tolerance. A positive effect of physical training was noted both in the patients with high and low exercise tolerance. Raised physical working capacity was observed in parallel with the improved indices of the left ventricular contractility in accordance with the results of two-dimensional echocardiography. The authors also observed a favorable effect of physical training on lipoprotein metabolism, in particular a decrease in the value of the apo B/apo AI ratio was noted that might suggest a decrease in the inflow of cholesterol to the vascular wall and an enhanced outflow from it.
