“…As described in prior studies, 6,8,15 peripheral vasomotor function was assessed by brachial artery ultrasound testing, which was performed according to standard techniques. 16,17 Subjects fasted overnight prior to testing and abstained from smoking on the day of testing.…”

“…However, despite restoration of left ventricular ejection fraction (EF), exercise performance, an important determinant of quality of life (1), remains limited after HTx and reported to be just 50% to 60% level of age-matched healthy controls(2-4) which may not be different from that of medically stable heart failure patients. (5) There are multiple factors that could affect exercise performance after heart HTx and these include recipient's age, gender, body mass index (BMI),(6) chronotropic incompetence, (5, 7) diastolic dysfunction, (5,8) defective adrenergic signaling, altered intracellular calcium handling,(9-11) transplant vasculopathy, (12) endothelial dysfunction (13) and skeletal muscle abnormalities. (11,14,15) The implications of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) are widely recognized in hypertension (16) and systolic heart failure (17) in terms of cardiovascular events (18) and exercise performance.…”

“…O aumento do fluxo sanguíneo associado à contração da musculatura esquelética foi descrito inicialmente pelo fisiologista inglês Walter H. Gaskell em 1878 [Gaskell, 1878] [Franciosa et al, 1981, Patel et al, 2003.…”

“…Entretanto, a correlação entre a capacidade de exercício e medidas da função cardíaca como a fração de ejeção do ventrículo esquerdo e medidas hemodinâmicas centrais são baixas, o que suscita um possível papel de fatores periféricos sobre o desempenho cardiovascular durante o exercício [Franciosa et al, 1981, Patel et al, 2003.…”
