Correction of the antioxidant system in people with arterial hypertension against the background of dosed physical activity

Abstract

This study aims to determine and compare the content of diene conjugates, plasma malondialdehyde and its active form, plasma vitamin E and blood selenium in patients with stage II hypertension before and after dosed exercise before and after taking vitamin E and selenium.Conclusions. Since the immediate response to bicycle ergometry is changes in the level of diene conjugates of plasma and erythrocytes and malondialdehyde of plasma (increase), it can be assumed that they are involved in the formation of the primary compensatory reaction in response to physical exertion in individuals with arterial hypertension. Thus, lower levels of plasma and erythrocyte diene conjugates and plasma malondialdehyde suggest improved antioxidant defense in hypertensive patients after vitamin E and selenium supplementation both before and after exercise.
