Why the study?
The study aimed to investigate the influence of long-term physical activity on biomarkers for myocyte ischemia (H-FABP), matrix remodelling/vascular stress (sST2), and inflammation (suPAR).
Does long-term physical activity alter biomarkers of myocyte ischemia, matrix remodeling, and inflammation?
Does long-term physical activity alter biomarkers of myocyte ischemia, matrix remodeling, and inflammation?
Long-term physical activity decreases H-FABP (suggesting better perfusion) and increases sST2 (reflecting physiological vascular stress).
