Do South Asians have elevated postexercise blood pressure and myocardial oxygen consumption compared to Europeans despite equivalent resting pressure?
Do South Asians have elevated postexercise blood pressure and myocardial oxygen consumption compared to Europeans despite equivalent resting pressure?
South Asians exhibit impaired postexercise recovery of blood pressure and rate-pressure product compared to Europeans, which is associated with autonomic dysfunction and aortic stiffness.
