title: Changes in systolic and diastolic functions of the left ventricle and endothelium function against the background of electric stimulation in athletes.
abstract: Against the background of 10 procedures of electric stimulation of the quadriceps muscle of the thigh performed in 72 athletes we observed a significant increase in volume parameters of the left-ventricular systolic function and increase in diastolic function in a group of athletes during the recovery period. Significant increase in endothelium-dependent values was noted in both groups during electric myostimulation; it directly correlated with all metric and integral echocardiography parameters in main group.
