Métodos: Dezessete ratos idosos (~ 478 dias/vida) foram divididos em Treinados-T, n=11 e Controle-C, n=6. Foram submetidos a um teste incremental antes e após 8 semanas de treinamento de natação (30 min/dia, 5/semanais, a ~5% do peso corporal) ou controle sem exercícios. O teste foi realizado com incrementos de 1% do peso corporal a cada 3 minutos até a exaustão. O limiar de lactato foi identificado por ajuste polinomial da resposta da razão lactato/carga. Após período experimental os animais foram sacrificados para cálculo da razão peso do coração/peso corporal. Resultados: O limiar de lactato não demonstrou diferença significativa com o treinamento em ambos os grupos (T:pré=5,1±0,7/pós=5,3±0,7%PC; C:pré=6,1±0,4/pós=6,4±0,6%PC;p>0,05). Quando calculada a variação do peso corporal do pré para o pós-experimento, constatou-se diferença significativa entre os grupos (T=-1,5±2,4% vs. C=6,4±3,3%;p<0,0001). Observou-se diferença de 13% da razão peso do coração/peso corporal entre grupos (T=0,29±0,04 vs. C=0,25±0,03;p<0,05). Conclusão: Embora alterações na razão peso do coração/peso corporal indiquem possíveis benefícios de eficiência cardiovascular decorrente do treinamento, a metodologia utilizada não resultou em melhora da capacidade aeróbia mensurada pelo limiar de lactato em ratos idosos.]]></p></abstract>

Methods: Seventeen elderly rats (~ 478 days/life) had been divided in Trained-T, n=11 and Control-C, n=6. They underwent an incremental test before and after 8 weeks of swimming training (30 min/day, 5/weekly, ~5% body weight) or control without exercise. Incremental test was carried out with increments of 1% body weight each 3 minutes until exhaustion. Lactate threshold was identified by polynomial adjustment of the ratio lactate/workload. After experimental period animals were sacrificed for calculation of the ratio weight of the heart/body weight. Results: lactate threshold did not demonstrate significant difference with training in both groups (T:pre=5.1±0.7/post=5.3±0.7%PC;C:pre=6.1±0.4/post=6.4±0.6%PC;p>0.05). When calculated the variation of the body weight before and after training, significant difference between groups was evidenced (T=-1.5±2.4% vs. C=6.4±3.3%;p<0.0001). A 13% difference was observed in the ratio weight of heart/body weight between groups (T=0.29±0.04 vs. C=0.25±0.03;p<0.05). Conclusion: Although alterations in the ratio weight of heart/body weight indicate possible cardiovascular benefits because of training, the used protocol did not result in improvement of aerobic capacity evaluated by lactate threshold in elderly rats.]]></p></abstract>
