Summary

The study aimed to highlight the effect of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) on cardiac fibrosis in cardiac patients. From 2009-2018, cardiac patients with measurements of VO2peak, b-type natriuretic peptide, quality of life questionnaire, cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging with late gadolinium enhancement (CMR-LGE), and preserved serum before and after 36 times of HIIT were enrolled. The human cardiac fibroblast (CF) isolated from human adult ventricle is treated with sera before and after HIIT. Measurements of cell migration as well as cell proliferation and global cell protein profiles before and after HIIT will be performed.

Conditions

  • Fibrosis Myocardial

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

High-intensity interval training

Cardiac patients have completed 36 times of exercise training with the exercise frequency of 2-3 times per week. Subjects performed five 3-minute intervals at 80% of VO2peak and each interval was separated by 3-minute exercise at 40% of VO2peak after the warm-up period. The exercise session was terminated by 3-minute cool-down at 30% of VO2peak.
