چکیده

Introduction: Swimming training fosters the heart performance.The aim of this study was to determine the effect of swimming training on heart structure and function of elite swimmers. Methods: The study was a causal comparative. The statistical sample included swimmer and non-athlete groups. Athletes were the elite swimmers who participated voluntarily in this study. Inclusion criteria for athletes included a history of at least ۵ years of regular swimming training. After sampling, all participants took part in the echo-heart test in which they were given Color Doppler M-Mode echocardiography. The functional and structural parameters included left ventricular internal diameter in systole (LVIDs), left ventricular internal diameter in diastole (LVIDd), interventricular septal end diastole (IVSd), left ventricular mass index(LVMI), left atrial dimensions (LAD), aortic root dimension (ARD), left ventricular posterior wall dimensions (LVPWD), heart rate (HR) and ejection fraction(EF).Shapiro-Wilk test was used to normalize the research data. Statistical analysis was used by independent samples t-test and Analysis of variance (ANOVA). The p-value was defined as p ≤ ۰.۰۵. The hypothesis test was performed using SPSS software version ۱۹. Results: The independent sample t-test results showed that swimmers had a significant decrease in LVIDs(p = ۰.۰۰۱), LVPWD(p = ۰.۰۰۱) and HR(p = ۰.۰۰۱) compared to non-athletes. The results also revealed that swimmers had a significant increase in a LVIDd(p = ۰.۰۰۱), LAD(p = ۰.۰۰۱), ARD(p = ۰.۰۰۱) and EF(p = ۰.۰۱۲) compared to non-athletes.There was no significant difference between groups in IVSd(p = ۰.۷۸۹) and LVMI(p = ۰.۹۳۱). But the results were fifferent when variables were adjusted to the participants’ age, weight, height and body mass index (BMI) by ANOVA. The adjusted results showed that swimmers had a significant decrease in LVIDs(p = ۰.۰۰۲) and HR(p = ۰.۰۱۹) compared to non-athletes. The results also revealed that swimmers had a significant increase in a LAD(p = ۰.۰۰۱) and ARD(p = ۰.۰۰۱) compared to non-athletes.There was no significant difference between groups in LVIDd (p = ۰.۲۶۶), IVSd (p = ۰.۲۵۵), LVMI (p = ۰.۹۸۴), LVPWD (p = ۰.۱۲۸), and EF (p = ۰.۰۶۳). Conclusion: Long-term swimming training can lead to some heart physiological changes in elite swimmers. It seems that this changes can improve heart performance in this athletes.

COI مخفف عبارت CIVILICA Object Identifier به معنی شناسه سیویلیکا برای اسناد است. COI کدی است که مطابق محل انتشار، به مقالات کنفرانسها و ژورنالهای داخل کشور به هنگام نمایه سازی بر روی پایگاه استنادی سیویلیکا اختصاص می یابد.

کد COI به مفهوم کد ملی اسناد نمایه شده در سیویلیکا است و کدی یکتا و ثابت است و به همین دلیل همواره قابلیت استناد و پیگیری دارد.
