Ankle and arm pressure recordings for the diagnosis of exercise-induced arterial endofibrosis

01 april 2020 BACKGROUND: Measurement of ankle and brachial blood pressure after maximal exercise is largely used to diagnose exercise‑induced arterial endofibrosis (EIAE). AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: We aimed to compare the different available methods and combination of...

Near-infrared spectroscopy of the thigh fails to discriminate cyclists with arterial endofibrosis from normal asymptomatic athletes

01 oktober 2018 BACKGROUND: This study is to assess the applicability and performance of the near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) in the diagnosis of exercise-induced arterial endofibrosis (EIAE). METHODS: NIRS was measured on each thigh, in 12 highly trained...
