Fibrinolytic response to acute exercise in patients with peripheral arterial disease

Article Abstract:

This article investigates the effects of repetitive bouts of aerobic exercise on the fibrinolytic profile of peripheral arterial disease patients. Findings indicate that repeated sessions of submaximal treadmill walking significantly increased tissue plasminogen activator levels and decreased plasminogen activator inhibitor activity for over an hour after each exercise session.

A single bout of walking exercise enhances endogenous fibrinolysis in stroke patients

Article Abstract:

A study is conducted to determine the effects of acute submaximal exercise on fibrinolysis profiles in chronic hemiparetic stroke patients. The findings show that, the short bouts of low-intensity activity are responsible for the favorable changes in the fibrinolytic system.

Smoking history is related to free-living daily physical activity in claudicants

Article Abstract:

This article focuses on the physical activity levels of smokers and nonsmokers in peripheral arterial occlusive disease with intermittent claudication. Heavy smokers with impaired ambulatory function and peripheral circulation problems were also the least active compared to lighter smokers and nonsmokers.
