研究人员说,50岁以上的男性耐力运动员每4人中就有1人可能面临与心脏疤痕相关的危险的心脏节奏。 One in four male endurance athletes over 50 may face dangerous heart rhythms linked to heart scarring, researchers say.

Leeds大学在《欧洲预防心脏病学杂志》上发表的一项研究发现,50岁以上的男性耐力运动员中,约有四分之一在运动期间或运动后会经历危险的心律障碍,如心电图突变,特别是心脏肌肉有伤痕的运动员。 A University of Leeds study published in the European Journal of Preventive Cardiology finds that about one in four male endurance athletes over 50 may experience dangerous heart rhythm disturbances, like ventricular tachycardia, during or after exercise, especially those with heart muscle scarring. 研究人员对106名男性跑步者和骑自行车者进行了监测,他们使用了可穿戴和可植入的装置,将这些事件与潜在的心脏损伤而不是自我锻炼联系起来。 Researchers monitored 106 male runners and cyclists using wearable and implantable devices, linking the episodes to underlying heart damage rather than exercise itself. 虽然体育活动仍然对心脏健康非常有益,但专家们建议对患有头晕或晕眩等症状的老年男性运动员进行常规心血管筛查和医疗评估,并指出,可穿戴的心脏监测器可能有助于早期发现问题。 While physical activity remains highly beneficial for heart health, experts recommend routine cardiovascular screenings and medical evaluation for older male athletes with symptoms such as dizziness or palpitations, and note that wearable heart monitors may help detect issues early.
