| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study aimed to examine the effects of acute or chronic one-legged mechanical compression in mild hypoxia on arterial stiffness in the experimental and the control legs. Our results from acute experiment imply that mechanical compression in mid hypoxia reduces arterial stiffness only in the experimental leg and that the reduction in arterial stiffness is significantly greater in hypoxia than in normoxia. Our results from the intervention study also indicate that regular mechanical compression in normoxic and hypoxic groups reduces arterial stiffness only in the experimental leg, but not in the control leg. However, our data mean that the reduction in arterial stiffness after regular mechanical compression do not differ between both groups.
