摘要:Background and Study Aims: Pathophysiological studies have shown that elevated circulating concentrations of soluble inflammatory markers,
including monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), soluble E-selectin and soluble vascular cell adhesion
molecule-1 (sVCAM-1) may be independent risk factors for arteriosclerosis adhesion molecules. The
aim of this study, is the effects of combined exercise on the arteriosclerosis adhesion molecules of self-reliance
health fitness and appendicular muscle mass in elderly women.
Material and Methods: The participants were 21 elderly women (exercise group, n = 11; control group, n = 10). The combined exercise
consisted of walking and resistance exercise 80 minutes/session, 4 days each week for 12 weeks. Body
composition, a dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry , and arteriosclerosis adhesion molecules were measured.
Results: After combined exercise, significant group time interactions for body weight (p<0.01) and body fat percentage
(p<0.01) were found. In AMM and HDL-C(r = 0.830, p<0.01), there was positive relationship while MCP-1
(r = −0.685, p<0.01), sE-selectin (r = −0.643, p<0.01), and sVCAM-1(r = −0.625, p<0.01) showed a negative correlation.
Conclusions: The long-term combined exercises appeared to prevent the risks of arteriosclerosis by improving arteriosclerosis
adhesion molecules through enhancing self-reliance health fitness and increasing muscle mass of the elderly
women.
