Abstract
219 young athletes, 41 long distance runners of old age and 15 sedentary people have been studied. The method of non-invasive arteriography was adopted to determine arteria wave transmitting speeds at a state of rest. The results showed that the transmitting speed increased in proportion to age. Although there were significant differences among age groups above 50, no significant differences were found among the young athletes. The arterial speed in long-distance runners between 50 and 60 years of age was found to be slower than that in sedentary people. This indicated that long-distance running could help retard the loss of elasticity of the arterial walls in the aged. Verf.-Referat
