Endurance exercise and the production of the vascular endothelial growth factor and haematopoietic factors in patients with anaemia
F Dimeo, W Knauf, D Geilhaupt, et al
Background: Physical activity has been shown to stimulate haematopoiesis in patients with anaemia due to chronic renal failure or haematological malignancies.
Objective: To evaluate the effect of moderate exercise on the production, release, and reuptake of haematopoietically active factors.
Methods: Ten patients (four men and six women, mean (SD) age 51 (10) years) with a haemoglobin concentration under 130 g/l (men) or 120 g/l (women) carried out five three minute exercise bouts at an intensity of 80% of the maximal heart rate, corresponding to a lactate concentration of 3 (0.5) mmol/l. Patients rested for three minutes between bouts. The concentrations
