Experiments Health Cardiovascular Disease Exercise Athletes High-fat Diet A single high fat meal is known to inhibit vascular health, specifically within the endothelial layer of the vasculature. PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to determine whether or not athletes compared to non-athletes have a greater ability to reverse endothelial dysfunction resulting from a high fat meal by performing a single bout of moderate intensity exercise. METHODS: Flow mediated dilation (FMD) measurements were performed on three endurance trained (END) and three non-endurance trained (NEND) males prior to consumption of a high fat meal, 30 minutes after consumption of a high fat meal, and after 30 minutes of exercise. FMD was recorded via Doppler ultrasonography with arterial diameters being measured in real-time. RESULTS: Resting FMD values were elevated in END (10.1±6.6%) compared to NEND (6.0±3.9%) although no differences were detected. After exercise, FMD values were also elevated in END (8.5±4.6%) compared to NEND (2.6±4.8%) although no differences were detected. CONCLUSION: While our subject population was small (n=3 for each END and NEND group), further data collection may result in evidence that endurance training can prevent endothelial dysfunction imposed by a single high fat meal. 2013-05-06 English text Ohio Dominican University Honors Theses / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=oduhonors1367854381 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=oduhonors1367854381 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
