Physical exercise causes a series of physiological responses resulting from autonomic and hemodynamic adaptation that affect the cardiovascular system. Many studies have demonstrated its beneficial effect on blood pressure. Bearing in mind that hypertension is a very prevalent condition causing high morbidity and mortality rate, the physical exercise plays an important role as a nondrug measure...

متن کاملNOS3 genotype-dependent correlation between blood pressure and physical activity.
Endothelium-dependent vasorelaxation plays an important role in reduction of blood pressure and is mediated through release of nitric oxide (NO), which is generated by constitutively expressed endothelial nitric oxide synthase (NOS3). Exercise also augments NO release and has been recommended for primary prevention and improvement of hypertension, but individual responses are highly variable. W...
متن کاملBlood pressure and physical activity: time to move (on).
To the Editor: In their article, “Blood Pressure Circadian Pattern and Physical Exercise Assessment by Accelerometer and 7-Day Physical Activity Recall Scale,” Garcia-Ortiz et al. report that physical activity recorded as counts per minute with an accelerometer was associated with the dipper pattern in a cohort of healthy participants.1 This study merits several comments. The interest in the re...
متن کاملPhysical Activity, Obesity Status, and Blood Pressure in Preschool Children.
OBJECTIVE To examine the combined effects of physical activity and weight status on blood pressure (BP) in preschool-aged children. STUDY DESIGN The sample included 733 preschool-aged children (49% female). Physical activity was objectively assessed on 7 consecutive days by accelerometry. Children were categorized as sufficiently active if they met the recommendation of at least 60 minutes da...
