Abstract
Influence of antihypertensive pharmacological treatment on the acute cardiovascular responses to the resistance exercise in hypertensive middle-aged women
Highlights
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) have been the leading cause of death worldwide, accounting for 17.7 million deaths in 20171
Systolic BP (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (BP) (DBP), as expected, were higher in the decompensated and untreated groups when compared to the controlled group
The SBP and DBP were lower at all times in the controlled group when compared to the other groups (Figure 2A and 2B, respectively; p
Summary
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) have been the leading cause of death worldwide, accounting for 17.7 million deaths in 20171. With a worldwide prevalence of approximately 45%2, is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases and one of the leading causes of a modifiable risk factor for morbimortality. It may be prevented or controlled through changes in behavioral risk factors such as unhealthy eating, tobacco use, obesity, alcohol abuse, and physical inactivity. Among these modifiable risk factors, we highlight physical exercise, which is indicated as an adjuvant in both prevention and treatment of arterial hypertension.
