Table 3 Changes in thrombin/antithrombin III complex (TAT), tissue plasminogen activator/plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 complex (t-PAIC), and D-dimer before (Pre) and after (Post) 8-week cycle training with (BFR group) or without (CON group) blood flow restriction (BFR).

From: Blood flow restriction accelerates aerobic training-induced adaptation of \( {\dot{\text{V}}}{\text{O}}_{2} \) kinetics at the onset of moderate-intensity exercise

  1. Statistical analysis was performed using a repeated-measures two-way analysis of covariance followed by Bonferroni's multiple comparisons test. Partial eta squared (ηp2) is the effect size of the interaction and main effects of group and time. Values are expressed as mean ± SE (n = 9).
  2. *Significant difference from pre-training (Pre) (P < 0.05).
