Research Abstract |
We enrolled cardiac adult patients to investigate the relationship between physical activity and cardiovascular calcification and events. We also basically investigated the effect of exercise training on the retardation of calcification. The results were that exercise training did not reduce the extent of aortic calcification in mice.
