Abstract

In order to assess the possible occurrence of acute haemolysis with prolonged exertion, serum haptoglobin levels were determined from venous blood samples collected from eight male runners immediately preceding (PreRH), immediately following (PRH1), and 6 h following (PRH2) completion of a marathon road race. The subjects mean age, percentage of body fat, and maximum oxygen uptake (V02max) were 46 +/- 9 years, 12.1 +/- 3.4 and 54.9 +/- 8.4 ml/kg/min, respectively. The mean race finish time for the subjects was 3:35 +/- 0:18 h:min. The PreRH, PRH1 and PRH2 averaged 129 +/- 18,97 +/- 48 and 86 +/- 35 mg/dl respectively. Significant differences of -32.5 mg/dl between PreRH versus PRH1 and - 42.5 mg/dl between PreRH versus PRH2 were found. The difference between PRH1 and PRH2 of - 10.6 mg/dl was not significant. No signficant correlations were found between the decreases in serum haptoglobin and V02max or race finish time. The data suggest the occurrence of an acute haemolysis with performance of the marathon road race. Verf.-Referat
