Key result
Regular endurance exercise in young men was associated with greater arterial baroreflex sensitivity and its neural component compared to sedentary men (P<0.05).

Population
17 young men, comprising 8 sedentary men and 9 men trained in endurance exercise
Comparison
Regular endurance exercise vs Sedentary lifestyle

May support neural baroreflex benefits from endurance exercise in young men; hypothesis-generating and requires prospective trials before practice change.

Does regular endurance exercise improve arterial baroreflex sensitivity in young men?
p-value: p=<0.05
Regular endurance exercise in young men increases arterial baroreflex sensitivity through neural adaptations rather than changes in carotid arterial compliance.
Komine et al. (2009) conducted a cross-sectional in Healthy (n=17). Regular endurance exercise vs. Sedentary lifestyle was evaluated on Arterial baroreflex sensitivity and its neural component (p=<0.05). Regular endurance exercise in young men was associated with greater arterial baroreflex sensitivity and its neural component compared to sedentary men (P<0.05).
