Abstract:
Objective To explore the effect of aerobic exercise training on artery elasticity among patients with essential hypertension.Methods A total of 155 cases of patients with essential hypertension (EH)were selected,and were divided into control group(76 cases)and aerobic exercise group(79 cases).Control group was follow routine drug therapy,and aerobic exercise group was follow aerobic exercise training besides the routine therapy for 12 weeks.CAVI,ABI values,limb blood pressure,TG,TC,LDL -C,HDL -C and U -MA were compared before and after the intervention.Results After the intervention,bilateral CAVI values of aerobic exercise group were 7.76 ±0.15,7.88 ±0.15,8.87 ±0.25 and 8.89 ± 0.22,and lower than those before the intervention(P <0.05).The decline range of bilateral CAVI value(the difference between the mean differences before and after the intervention)were 1.03 ±0.07 and 1.03 ±0.06,significantly wider than the control group of 0.33 ±1.97 and 0.15 ±0.08(P <0.05).After the intervention,limb systolic pressure,diastolic blood pressure and triglyceride,cholesterol decreased in the aerobic exercise group(P <0.05).The limb systolic blood pressure and left limb diastolic blood pressure decreased in the control group after intervention (P <0.05),but the decline range was smaller than the aerobic exercise group(P <0.05 ).Conclusion The aerobic exercise training could significantly improve arterial elasticity among patients with essential hypertension.
