Abstract
Background and Aim: Considering the relationship between vascular disorders and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL), the purpose of this research was to investigate the relationship between the LDL and arterial stiffness indices, including cardiovascular-ankle vascular index (CAVI) and ankle-brachial index (ABI) in the basic state and also after glucose consumption and physical activity. Materials and Methods: This intervention and trial research was conducted on 82 inactive subjects (40 women and 42 men) in the age group of 20 to 45 years of Shahrood city. After 12 hours of fasting, the subjects’ LDL levels were measured. Then the weight, height, body composition and arterial stiffness (cardiovascular index-ankle index (CAVI) and brachial-ankle index (ABI)) were taken at baseline and response 30 minutes of acute endurance activity with 65% maximum heart rate on the treadmill. After 30 minutes of activity, 75 grams of glucose that dissolved in 225 ml of water was consumed, followed by 60 minutes of inactive rest, and the arterial stiffness was measured at the end. Data analysis was performed using simple linear regression and paired t-tests at a significance level of p≤0.05. Results: The results showed no significant relationship between LDL levels and baseline levels of CAVI index in both male and female groups (p>0.05). But, a significant relationship was observed between baseline LDL levels and CAVI index changes (changes in the second stage of measurement after intervention compared to rest levels) in both male and female groups (p=0.001). Also, changes in ABI index were significantly related to LDL only in the male group (p=0.01). Conclusion: It can be concluded that the baseline LDL level can be a sex-dependent predictor of arterial stiffness response to physical activity and glucose consumption.
