Abstract
Background: The isometric exercise performed using the handgrip (HG) acutely promotes elevation of systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP), and in a non-consensual manner among articles elevation or maintenance of heart rate (HR). Currently, although there is a vast literature on the hemodynamic effects of interval training and isometric exercise with HG alone, there is still no consistent evidence of such adjustments occurring in the association between the two. Therefore, the objective of this study was to describe the acute hemodynamic responses found only during interval training and when combined with isometric contraction with HG.
Methods: This is a pilot study of a crossover clinical trial. Seven male volunteers, aged 24±3.9 years, underwent three protocols on an ergometric treadmill, with a 3-minute warm-up at 30% of heart rate reserve (HRR), four sprints 2 minutes at 50% HRR and active intervals at the same speed as the warm-up. Randomization was carried out in a simple random manner. The protocols were classified according to the use of HG during sprints, as follows: PI = without HG; PII = HG 30% of handgrip strength (HGS) and PIII = 60% of HGS). Variations (Δ) in HR, double product (DP), SBP and DBP were evaluated.
Results: The presence of HG did not change HR behavior, but it increased DP (PI: 10,472±2,539 vs. PII: 12,217±1,933 vs. PIII: 13,369±3,089) through SBP, which in PI had a plateau behavior of 15±22.2 mmHg, while PII varied with an average of 41±12.2 mmHg and PIII 47±11.1 mmHg, in the 4th sprint. DBP fell in PI with 12±13.2 mmHg, while PII and PIII showed an drop of 0±19.6 and 6±13.0 mmHg in the last sprint, respectively.
Conclusions: The use of HG during interval training directly modulates hemodynamic variables, promoting an increase in SBP elevation, attenuation of the drop in DBP and an increase in DP, without an increase in HR.

期刊介绍:
The Annals of Translational Medicine (Ann Transl Med; ATM; Print ISSN 2305-5839; Online ISSN 2305-5847) is an international, peer-reviewed Open Access journal featuring original and observational investigations in the broad fields of laboratory, clinical, and public health research, aiming to provide practical up-to-date information in significant research from all subspecialties of medicine and to broaden the readers’ vision and horizon from bench to bed and bed to bench. It is published quarterly (April 2013- Dec. 2013), monthly (Jan. 2014 - Feb. 2015), biweekly (March 2015-) and openly distributed worldwide. Annals of Translational Medicine is indexed in PubMed in Sept 2014 and in SCIE in 2018. Specific areas of interest include, but not limited to, multimodality therapy, epidemiology, biomarkers, imaging, biology, pathology, and technical advances related to medicine. Submissions describing preclinical research with potential for application to human disease, and studies describing research obtained from preliminary human experimentation with potential to further the understanding of biological mechanism underlying disease are encouraged. Also warmly welcome are studies describing public health research pertinent to clinic, disease diagnosis and prevention, or healthcare policy. With a focus on interdisciplinary academic cooperation, ATM aims to expedite the translation of scientific discovery into new or improved standards of management and health outcomes practice.
