Background . The assessment of blood pressure (BP) response during exercise test is an important diagnostic instrument in cardiovascular system evaluation. study aim was to determine normal values BP submaximal, multistage healthy adults with regard their age, gender, and workload.

In the last decade, peripheral blood was main source of hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) for autologous and allogeneic transplantation. The exact mechanisms HSC mobilization are still not clear efficacy procedure is hardly predictable. Ligand-receptor interactions adhesion molecules, such as SDF1/CXCR4, VLA4/VCAM-1, or CD44/osteopontin, play an important role in homing niche. There some evidence that disruption ligand-receptor complex leads to egress HSCs blood. aim present study evaluation...
The aim of the study was to determine arterial blood pressure response exercise in young athletes. group comprised 711 athletes (457 boys, 254 girls) aged 10 18 years (mean 13.41 ± 3.12 years) who had been training for an average 7.62 4.2 h per week 4.01 2.5 years. Participants with elevated above 90th percentile at rest were excluded from investigation. A symptom-limited, multistage test exhaustion performed using a Monark cycle ergometer. Arterial measured aneroid manometer third minute...
This study evaluated the clinical outcomes of cardiac rehabilitation (CR) in women with coronary artery disease (CAD) comparison to men. Methods: Patients after acute syndrome or revascularization procedures (106 women, 180 men) were consecutively admitted a comprehensive outpatient CR program, comprising 45-min ergometer interval training three times week for eight weeks. The intensity was determined on basis heart rate, calculated following an exercise test. divided into subgroups...
Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence residential (RCR) vs ambulatory (ACR) cardiac rehabilitation (CR) on health-related quality life (QOL) connected with changes in exercise capacity patients coronary heart disease (CHD). Methods and Results: 562 CHD were studied: 313 participants RCR 249 ACR. examination performed at beginning CR after 8 weeks. QOL assessed using EuroQuol 5D (EQ-5D) SF36 questionnaires. Exercise testing evaluation workload during last stage test...
Objective: Circulating endothelial cells (CECs) in patients with hematological malignancies are assessed as a noninvasive marker of angiogenesis. The aim this study was to evaluate the numbers CECs and their subsets during mobilization hematopoietic stem cells. Patients methods: Thirty‐eight were enrolled (19 females 19 males) at median age 56.5 years. group consisted multiple myeloma (26), lymphoma (10), acute myeloid leukemia (2). Blood samples collected before chemotherapy (0), 1 day...
The bone marrow niche functions are modulated by complicated cytokines network. aim of our study was to evaluate the levels VCAM‐1, VEGF, MMP‐9 and SDF during mobilization CD34+ cells in patients with hematological malignancies. Thirty four were enrolled (19F, 15 M) at median age 57 years. group consisted multiple myeloma (26) lymphoma (8). procedures comprised chemotherapy then G‐CSF. Blood samples collected before ( N = 34) on day first apheresis 26). Cytokines evaluated ELISA assay. We...
Background: Despite the use of advanced treatment techniques, coronary artery disease (CAD) still remains main cause left ventricular (LV) dysfunction and heart failure. Participation in cardiac rehabilitation (CR) programs can lead to a number beneficial effects, but some patients do not demonstrate expected improvement. The aim this study is evaluate impact CR on changes exercise capacity with regard presence LV dysfunction. Methods: A group 428 CAD were consecutively admitted an...
Background/Objectives: Dietary habits are among the most significant determinants of health. The aim this study was to assess nutritional quality and cardiovascular profiles individuals following plant-based diet. Methods: population comprised 199 (136 women, 63 men; mean age 33.9 ± 8.9 years) including vegans (VG; n = 50), vegetarians (VN; 101) omnivores (OV; 48). In analysis procedures were assessed: a questionnaire interview, anthropometric blood pressure measurements, sample collection....
The study population included 141 male CAD patients prospectively and consecutively admitted to an outpatient comprehensive CR program. Twenty-seven with type-2 diabetes were compared 114 males without diabetes. participants performed a 45-min cycle ergometer interval training alternating 4-min workload 2-min active restitution three times week for 8 weeks. intensity was adjusted so that the patient's heart rate achieved calculated according Karvonen formula. At baseline after weeks, all...
