However, it is unknown whether this effect occurs in patients with recent myocardial infarction (AMI). Methods Fifty-two patients with a recent first uncomplicated AMI underwent endothelial function evaluation before and after 3 months of moderate aerobic exercise training. We measured brachial artery vasomotor reactivity using flow-mediated dilation (FMD), a cold pressor (CP) test, and sublingual nitroglycerin. Patients were randomized into 2 groups: 28 patients (G1) underwent training, while 24 patients (G2) served as controls. Brachial artery vasomotor reactivity was reassessed after 1 month of detraining (DT). Results At baseline the FMD was 1.66% +/- 4.11% in G1 and 2.04% +/- 3.4% in G2 (P = NS) and vasoconstriction was evident after a CP test. The diameter reduction was -4.1% +/- 3.89% in G1 and -4.39% +/- 5.67% in G2 (P = NS). At follow-up the FMD had increased to 9.39% +/- 4.87% in G1 (P < .01) and to 4.4% +/- 3.9% in G2 (P < .01 vs G1). Vasoconstriction during a CP test was observed only in G2. Endothelium-independent vasodilation was unchanged in both groups. Effort tolerance increased by 32% in G1 patients (P < .01 versus G2) and was correlated with FMD change (R = 0.51, P < .01). After detraining the FMD was significantly reduced in G1 (P < .01) and a further vasoconstriction was evident after CP testing. Conclusions Exercise training improves endothelium-dependent vasodilation in post-AMI patients. This improvement is associated with a significant increase in exercise tolerance. These benefits disappeared after detraining. Langue : ANGLAIS Tiré à part : OUI |
