Outline of Final Research Achievements

The purpose of this study was to clarify whether the increase in venous compliance with exercise training was related to the training induced adaptation of circulatory responses. The findings in this study suggested that 1) interval training for 8 weeks in healthy young adults increases calf venous compliance and decreases blood pressure during exercise, but that 2) the degree of increase in venous compliance has no correlation with the adaptation of blood pressure.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

運動トレーニングに伴う静脈血管機能の改善（適応）が生体にもたらす効果に関する検討は，動脈血管における知見と比較して少ない．本研究では，運動トレーニングに伴う静脈血管機能向上の生理的意義を解明しようとしている点に学術的意義がある．また，循環システムに対して静脈血管伸展性向上がもたらす効果を明らかにすることで，循環器系疾患予防のための，ひいては健康寿命延伸のための健康施策の考案につながる点に社会的意義があるといえる．
