Does aerobic exercise training improve plasma ADMA concentrations and arterial compliance in postmenopausal women?
p-value: p=<0.01
Aerobic exercise training for 12 weeks improves carotid arterial compliance and reduces plasma ADMA concentrations in postmenopausal women, suggesting a mechanism for exercise-induced vascular benefits.
Tanahashi et al. (2013) studied Postmenopausal women (n=30). Aerobic exercise training vs. Control group was evaluated on Plasma ADMA concentrations and carotid arterial compliance (p=<0.01). Aerobic exercise training for 12 weeks significantly decreased plasma ADMA concentrations (P<0.05) and increased carotid arterial compliance (P<0.01) in postmenopausal women.
