Abstract :
Background and objectives: Coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) is a surgical procedure used to treat coronary heart disease. The present study aimed to investigate effects of 8 weeks of combined rehabilitation training on plasma levels of leptin, adiponectin, and resistin in middle-aged men who have undergone CABG. Methods: The present research was a quasi-experimental study with a pretest-posttest design. The statistical population included all patients who have undergone CABG in Mashhad, Iran. Overall, 26 middle-aged men who have undergone CABG were enrolled in the study. The subjects were divided into a training group (n=14) and a control group (n=12). Data were analyzed in SPSS software (version 21) using analysis of covariance and paired t-test at significance level of 0.05. Results: Plasma levels of leptin did not change significantly (p=0.709), adiponectin increased significantly (p=0.001), and resistin decreased significantly (p=0.005) after the training intervention. Conclusion: As a non-pharmacological intervention, the rehabilitation training has cardioprotective effects on patients who undergone CABG.
