We aimed to assess the effects of one session of aerobic or isometric exercise on flow-mediated dilation (FMD) and pulse wave velocity (PWV) in post-MI volunteers undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Twenty post-MI patients undergoing PCI were randomized to aerobic (AE, n\u2009=\u200910) or isometric (IE, n\u2009=\u200910) exercise groups. We evaluated cardiac structure and function (echocardiographic); carotid plaque presence (ultrasound). FMD and PWV were measured 10\u00a0min before and 10\u00a0min after the intervention: a single session of moderate-intensity AE (30\u00a0min; ratings 12\u201314 on Borg\u2019s scale or 50\u201360% HRreserve) or handgrip IE (four two-minute bilateral contractions; 30% maximal voluntary contraction; 1-min rest). Generalized estimating equations (Bonferroni post-hoc) was used to assess differences (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009\u2264\u20090.050).<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>FMD improved only in the AE group (\u0394\u2009=\u20094.9%; <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.034), with no difference between groups after exercise. Even after adjustment (for baseline brachial artery diameter) the effectiveness of AE remained (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.025) with no change in the IE group. PWV was slightly reduced from baseline in the AE group (\u0394\u2009=\u20090.61\u00a0m\/s; <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.044), and no difference when compared to the IE group.
