چکیده

1. Local skeletal muscle blood flow was monitored using the microdialysis ethanol technique and 133Xe clearance during intermittent isometric contractions (5 s on/10 s off) of the thigh at 0-60% of the maximal voluntary isometric contraction force. 2. A linear increase in blood flow over a 25-fold range was detected using both 133Xe clearance and the microdialysis ethanol technique. 3. The median correlation coefficient between percentage maximal voluntary isometric contraction force and the ethanol outflow/inflow ratio, a marker of blood flow, was r = -0.98 (-0.94 to -0.99) (median and range, n = 6). The corresponding correlation coefficient for 133Xe clearance was r = 0.97 (0.92-0.98), the correlation coefficient between the ethanol outflow/inflow ratio and 133Xe clearance being r = -0.92 (-0.89 to -0.94). 4. Dialysate glucose concentration, although affected by blood flow, was not always significantly correlated with blood flow changes (r = 0.70; 0.51-0.95). 5. It may be concluded that the ethanol technique provides a valid measure of changes in local skeletal muscle blood flow. The data furthermore show that a linear increase in thigh skeletal muscle blood flow exists during the studied protocol of intermittent isometric contractions.

MUSCLE BLOOD FLOW DURING EXERCISE In patients suffering from intermittent claudication,

Pathophysiological considerations predict that exercise blood flows at comparable work loads must always be reduced in claudicants in comparison to normal subjects. The present study verified that the exercise blood flow determined by 133xenon clearance measurements in the gastrocnemius muscle in claudicants and in a control group differed widely. As expected, a statistically significant correl...

Limb and skeletal muscle blood flow measurements at rest and during exercise in human subjects.

The aim of the present review is to present techniques used for measuring blood flow in human subjects and advice as to when they may be applicable. Since blood flow is required to estimate substrate fluxes, energy turnover and metabolic rate of skeletal muscle, accurate measurements of blood flow are of extreme importance. Several techniques have therefore been developed to enable estimates to...

The Effects of Eight Weeks High Intensity Intermittent Training and Blood Flow Restricted on Angiogenic Markers of Muscle in Male Runners

Background. Due to the lack of sufficient information about the interactive effects of high intensity intermittent training (HIIT) and blood flow restricted (BFR) exercises on angiogenic variables of skeletal muscle, it seems that integration these training models can influence skeletal muscle angiogenesis in the long term over the individual application of each of these training methods. Obje...
