The effect of aquatic exercise on cystatine C, fibrinogen, CRP and lipid profile

One of the main reasons for heart attacks are imbalance of homeostasis system which can cause thrombosis and lead to heart attacks. This study explored the effects of aquatic exercise on the fibrinogen, CRP, cystatine C and Lipid profile of nonathletic students. A total of 30 female nonathletes with aged 18-27 years were selected randomly divided the two groups of aerobic and control. The aerobic group took part in three weekly sessions of aerobic exercises during a twelve week period. Fibrinogen, CRP, cystatine C, triglyceride, cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) factors were studied through obtained blood samples. Findings showed that aquatic exercises led to a significant decline in the subjects’ fibrinogen (P=.037), cystatine C (P=.013), triglyceride (P=.005) and cholesterol (P=.003) levels. but did not cause significant differences in other variables. This study concluded that routine aerobic training can decrease the threat of cardiovascular disease through the decrease of some inflammatory indices such as fibrinogen and cystatine C.
