What is Comparison of vascular arterial stiffness parameters of adolescent wrestlers with healthy subjects: Is heavy training harmful for wrestlers? about?

## Backround: The effect of different exercise modalities on the vascular structure has been the subject of clinical trials but there is not enough data about wrestlers. ## Objective: This study aimed to compare the arterial stiffness parameters in adolescent wrestlers with those of age-matched sedentary controls to show the effects of long and heavy training. ## Methods: This study was carried out as a case-control study. thirty three (n= 33) elite male adolescent wrestlers (12-18 years) and 35 age and sex-matched control subjects (p= 0.438) with a sedentary lifestyle were included the study. the data was obtained by using sonography and a sphygmomanometer. systolic and diastolic diameters and intima media thickness (imt) measurements were performed from the carotid arteries of the subjects. the arterial tension was measured in the same session, and arterial stiffness parameters were calculated using specific formulas. ## Results: The mean age range was 15.9 ± 0.9 years and 16.0 ± 0.8 years for the wrestlers and control subjects, respectively (p= 0.43). statistically, the body mass index (bmi) was significantly higher in wrestlers (mean = 23.7 ± 4.0 kg/m2; p= 0.00). the groups had
