Endothelial function, red blood cell velocity, and concentrations of C-reactive protein, and soluble intercellular adhesion molecules-1 improved after both LI and LI-BFR. Endothelin-1 and oxidative stress increased after LI-BFR, and lowered after LI.Conclusion: LI-BFR, but not LI improved strength, muscle mass, IGF-1, endothelial function, and selected inflammatory markers in a nonagenarian sarcopenic patient. These results are promising and suggest that LI-BFR should be considered as an alternative to prevent muscle loss and improve functional fitness in frail older populations.Keywords: aging, muscle mass, resistance exercise, vascular occlusion, endothelial function, microcirculationLopes KGBottino DAFarinatti Pde Souza MGCMaranhão PAde Araujo CMSBouskela ELourenço RAOliveira RBDove Medical Pressarticleagingmuscle massresistance exercisevascular occlusionendothelial functionmicrocirculation.GeriatricsRC952-954.6ENClinical Interventions in Aging, Vol Volume 14, Pp 1461-1469 (2019)
