Impaired Systolic Blood Pressure Recovery and Heart Rate Recovery After Graded Exercise in Patients With Metabolic Syndrome

摘要

The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare systolic blood pressure recovery and heart rate recovery (HRR) values obtained at various time intervals after maximal graded exercise treadmill testing between patients with metabolic syndrome (MS) and the controls without MS. To our knowledge, this is the first study indicating systolic blood pressure recovery (SBPR) impairment and its relations to HRR and other variables in this group of patients.
