Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Previous studies have shown that thoracolumbar spinal cord injury patients do not adversely affect renal function with prolonged upper extremity exercise. However, it is unknown for those with cervical cord injury. The purpose of this study was to clarify the renal function during exercise in persons with cervical spinal cord injury. The study investigated in two situations: 30 minutes arm-crank ergometer exercise at 50% of maximum oxygen consumption for healthy adults and persons with cervical spinal cord injury and wheelchair half marathon race for individuals with cervical spinal cord injury and thoracolumbar spinal cord injury. There were no adverse effects on renal function in patients with cervical spinal cord injury during both exercises. It was also suggested that persons with cervical spinal cord injury may be compensating for Na reabsorption by enhancing aldosterone response, and that Na excretion may be enhanced compared to thoracolumbar spinal cord injury patients.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
頚髄損傷者が30分の上肢エルゴメータ駆動運動や、ハーフマラソンレース程度の運動を行っても腎機能に悪影響がないことが判明した。過去の胸腰髄損傷者における研究結果と合わせると、腎交感神経障害があることで尿生成に関係するホルモン動態も健常者と比べて変化しており、障害された状態でも尿生成や血圧調整などを生体として恒常性を維持するために適応した結果と思われる。本研究は、脊髄損傷者、特に頚髄損傷者が積極的に運動を行うことの安全性を証明する一助となった。
