Key result
A 12-week lifestyle modification program significantly decreased arterial stiffness and plasma ADMA concentrations in overweight and obese men.
Why the study?
Does a 12-week lifestyle modification program reduce arterial stiffness and plasma ADMA levels in overweight and obese men?
Does a 12-week lifestyle modification program reduce arterial stiffness and plasma ADMA levels in overweight and obese men?
A 12-week lifestyle modification program reduces arterial stiffness and plasma ADMA levels in overweight and obese men, suggesting ADMA reduction as a potential mechanism for improved vascular health.

May support lifestyle programs for vascular markers in obese men; hypothesis-generating, needs RCTs before clinical adoption.
Maeda et al. (2013) studied Overweight and obesity (n=17). Lifestyle modification program (aerobic exercise and dietary modification) was evaluated on Brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) and plasma ADMA concentration. A 12-week lifestyle modification program significantly decreased arterial stiffness and plasma ADMA concentrations in overweight and obese men.
