摘要：This study compared the autonomic modulation and baroreflex sensitivity responses to acute session of aerobic and strength exercises in kidney recipients. Ten (6 men and 4 women) kidney-recipient patients joined the study. All patients were enrolled in a regular exercise program. The same group undertook two different exercise protocols in separate days (strength and aerobic), with baroreflex and autonomic activity evaluations before and 60 min after each session. Both groups showed similar behaviors at rest, but differences were found only after aerobic exercise regarding baroreflex sensitivity. The behavior of the autonomic system was reestablished after aerobic exercise. However, the same finding did not occur with strength exercise. This information is important because autonomic recovery after exercise is an important index for long-term training periodization.
