Title: [The role of physical training in lipid metabolic parameters in patients with chronic myocardial infarct]. Author: Mitu F, Azoicăi D, Gheorghiţă N. Journal: Rev Med Chir Soc Med Nat Iasi; 1995; 99(1-2):63-71. PubMed ID: 9524658. Abstract: OBJECTIVES: The aim of the study is to follow the variation of some parameters of the lipidic metabolism, during physical training, at patients with chronic myocardial infarction. METHODS: Among 132 patients with chronic myocardial infarction, we selected 22 patients, mean age 47.4 +/- 6.08 years from which 18 followed supervised physical training a period of 3-6 months. There were determined before and at the end of the interval, the following parameters: serum lipids, serum cholesterol, HDLcol, LDLcol, triglicerids, apolipoproteins A,B, Apo B/A ratio. The statistical comparison has been made for each parameters, by univariate and multivariate analysis. RESULTS: HDLcol increased significantly in the study group at the end of the interval (from 28.9 mg% to 42.3 mg%, p < 0.001); LDLcol and total cholesterol did not vary. Apo A increased significantly, but Apo B/A ratio did not change. CONCLUSIONS: Physical training altered the lipidic profile by increasing the protective fraction of the cholesterol--HDLcol and Apo A.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
