Why the study?
Does endurance exercise training improve left ventricular size and remodeling and reduce blood pressure in older adults with mild or moderate hypertension?
Does endurance exercise training improve left ventricular size and remodeling and reduce blood pressure in older adults with mild or moderate hypertension?
Endurance exercise training is associated with reduced blood pressure and partial regression of left ventricular hypertrophy and concentric remodeling in older hypertensive adults.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
May support endurance exercise in older hypertensives; hypothesis-generating for LV remodeling, needing RCTs.
The data suggest that exercise training can reduce BP and induce partial regression of LVH and LV concentric remodeling in older adults with mild or moderate hypertension.
