The Acute Effect of Aerobic Exercise on Brachial Artery Endothelial Function in Renal Transplant Recipients

This study compared the effect of a 30‐minute walk on brachial artery endothelial vasodilatation in kidney transplant (KT) recipients and healthy controls (HCs). Endothelial‐dependent vasodilatation was measured by ultrasound before and after exercise. The HCs experienced a significant increase in v...

Zusammenfassung:This study compared the effect of a 30‐minute walk on brachial artery endothelial vasodilatation in kidney transplant (KT) recipients and healthy controls (HCs). Endothelial‐dependent vasodilatation was measured by ultrasound before and after exercise. The HCs experienced a significant increase in vasodilatation after exercise 1 minute postocclusion when compared with the KT recipients (22%±13% vs 3%±4%; V
