The effects of running a 308 km ultra-marathon on cardiac markers.
EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF SPORT SCIENCE(2014)
摘要
The aim of this study was to investigate the expression of cardiac strain and damage in 18 male marathoners with average age of 52.8 +/- 5.0 years running at a 308 km ultra-marathon. Blood samples were collected at pre-race, 100 km, 200 km and 308 km check points for the analysis of cardiac muscle injury markers, creatine kinase (CK), creatine kinase-myocardial band (CK-MB), cardiac troponin I (cTnI) and cardiac muscle strain marker, N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP). The CK levels increased 1127.2 +/- 507.9 IU/L, 5133.8 +/- 2492.7 IU/L and 4958.4 +/- 2087.9 IU/L at 100 km, 200 km and 308 km, respectively, compared to the pre-race levels. The CK-MB levels increased 20.2 +/- 11.2 ng/mL, 73.3 +/- 35.6 ng/mL and 68.6 +/- 42.6 ng/mL at 100, 200 and 308 km, respectively, compared to the pre-race levels. The CK-MB/CK ratio showed that the CK-MB mass index was within the normal range (<2.5%) at 100 km, 200 km and 308 km. The cTnI levels showed no significant difference in all check points. The NT-proBNP levels increased 146.55 +/- 92.7 pg/mL, 167.95 +/- 111.9 pg/mL and 241.23 +/- 121.2 pg/mL at 100, 200 and 308 km, respectively, compared to the pre-race levels. The normal CK-MB mass index (<5.0 ng/mL) and the absence of an increase in the cTnI levels during the 308 km ultra-marathon suggested that no myocardial injury despite an elevation in CK-MB. The increase in NT-proBNP levels probably resulted from continuous hemodynamic cardiac stress and represents a transient physiological myocardial protective response.
