消防员 (FF) 和执法人员 (LEO) 面临高心血管疾病 (CVD) 风险. 这项研究发现,FF的运动能力更好,但压力和心血管疾病风险生物标志物比LEO更高,这表明职业特定因素影响健康.
科学领域:
- 职业健康 职业健康 职业健康
- 心血管疾病研究研究
- 生物标记分析 生物标记分析
背景情况:
- 消防员 (FF) 和执法人员 (LEO) 患心血管疾病 (CVD) 的风险较高.
- 大约45%的值班FF死亡是与心血管疾病相关的,而LEO的心血管疾病患病率是一般公众的1.7倍.
研究的目的:
- 为了比较FF和LEO之间的CVD风险生物标志物,身体健康和身体成分.
- 调查职业特异性压力因素对第一响应人员健康状况的影响.
主要方法:
- 98名男性FF和73名男性LEO参加了比赛.
- 最大心肺运动测试 (CPXT) 评估了心肺呼吸能力 (VO2max).
- 双能X射线吸收仪 (DXA) 和人类测量测量评估了人体组成;血液样本分析了心血管疾病风险生物标志物.
主要成果:
- 与LEO相比,FF的CPXT炼时间 (更高的健身) 显著更长.
- FFs表现出更高水平的先进氧化蛋白产物,血液皮质醇和腰部至部的比率.
- 这些发现表明,与LEO相比,FF的压力和心血管疾病风险生物标志物增加.
结论:
- 虽然FF表现出优越的运动能力,但他们也表现出更高的压力和心血管疾病风险生物标志物.
- 职业特定的特征和压力因素似乎对第一响应人员的心血管疾病风险概况作出了重大贡献.
- 进一步研究为FF和LEO量身定制的干预措施是有必要的.

Exercise and Cardiovascular Response
Light to moderate physical activity initiates a series of interconnected responses in the body. The heart rate modestly increases in anticipation of the workout, followed by widespread vasodilation as oxygen consumption by skeletal muscles increases. This results in decreased peripheral resistance, increased capillary blood flow, and accelerated...
