Exaggerated exercise BP response was associated with endothelial and aortic abnormalities in healthy men; supports mechanistic research but leaves clinical risk stratification unresolved.
Does an exaggerated blood pressure response to exercise correlate with endothelial dysfunction and neurohormonal activation in healthy males?
An exaggerated blood pressure response to exercise in healthy males is associated with endothelial dysfunction, decreased proximal aortic compliance, and increased exercise-related neurohormonal activation.
