Why the study?
Does endurance exercise training alter the beta-adrenergic-stimulated inotropic response in healthy older postmenopausal women?
Does endurance exercise training alter the beta-adrenergic-stimulated inotropic response in healthy older postmenopausal women?
Endurance exercise training in older postmenopausal women improves maximal oxygen consumption but does not enhance beta-adrenergic-mediated left ventricular contractile function or cause eccentric LV hypertrophy.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Endurance training may improve VO2max without enhancing beta-adrenergic inotropy in older women; leaves open confirmation in RCTs and outcome impact.
Spina et al. (2000) studied this question.
