Hypotensive Therapy

1. Ambulatory blood pressure recordings were made over a 48 h period on six hypertensive patients. The conditions of study were standardized, particularly with regard to physical activity, and during one period of each day the patients were randomly allocated to be active or inactive. 2. Results show that blood pressure was highest during physical activity and lowest during sleep. There was no significant difference between the arterial pressures measured during the same physical activities carried out at the same time each day. However, during the same time on consecutive days when activity was randomized, there was a significant difference between the pressure recordings during physical activity compared with those during inactivity. Heart rate changes showed a similar trend during the randomized period. 3. Physical activity and sleep have a profound effect on continuous arterial blood pressure recordings and these are independent of time alone. These observations should be taken into account when using this ambulatory system to assess hypotensive therapy.

AbstractBackground:Physical inactivity contributes to many health issues. The WHO-recommended physical activity for adolescents encompasses aerobic, resistance, and bone strengthening exercises aimed at achieving health-related physical fitness. Heart rate variability (HRV) and maximal aerobic capacity (VO2max) are considered as noninvasive measures of cardiovascular health. The objective of this study is to compare the effect of structured and unstructured physical training on maximal aerobic capacity and HRV among adolescents.Methods:We designed a single blinded, parallel, randomized active-controlled trial (Registration No. CTRI/2013/08/003897) to compare the physiological effects of 6 months of globally recommended structured physical activity (SPA), with that of unstructured physical activity (USPA) in healthy school-going adolescents. We recruited 439 healthy student volunteers (boys: 250, girls: 189) in the age group of 12–17 years. Randomization across the groups was done using age and gender stratified randomization method, and the participants were divided into two groups: SPA (n=219, boys: 117, girls: 102) and USPA (n=220, boys: 119, girls: 101). Depending on their training status and gender the participants in both SPA and USPA groups were further subdivided into the following four sub-groups: SPA athlete boys (n=22) and girls (n=17), SPA nonathlete boys (n=95) and girls (n=85), USPA athlete boys (n=23) and girls (n=17), and USPA nonathlete boys (n=96) and girls (n=84).Results:We recorded HRV, body fat%, and VO2 max using Rockport Walk Fitness test before and after the intervention. Maximum aerobic capacity and heart rate variability increased significantly while heart rate, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and body fat percentage decreased significantly after both SPA and USPA intervention. However, the improvement was more in SPA as compared to USPA.Conclusions:SPA is more beneficial for improving cardiorespiratory fitness, HRV, and reducing body fat percentage in terms of magnitude than USPA in adolescent individuals irrespective of their gender and sports activities.

The Impact

Background. Conflicting results are reported on the effect of Ramadan fasting on the cardiovascular health of patients with hypertension, a highly prevalent cardiovascular disease risk factor. This research aimed to evaluate the impact of fasting on cardiac health and heart rate variability (as a measure of cardiac stress) of hypertensive patients. Methods. Patients with controlled hypertension were followed in a prospective cohort during and after Ramadan. Lipid panel and blood glucose were measured at the end of each phase. Blood pressure and heart rate variability were monitored in the morning, afternoon, and evening of each follow-up day. Results. The study included 58 subjects (mean age: 54 ± 11.5 years, 52% male). Fasting did not affect body composition, lipid panel parameters, and blood pressure of hypertensive subjects; males only presented lower body weight and hip circumference during Ramadan. Blood glucose was significantly higher during Ramadan. Fasting significantly increased HRV during the afternoon period. Conclusions. Ramadan intermittent fasting reduces cardiac stress among hypertensive patients controlled by and adherent to hypertensive medication, without affecting their hypertensive state.

Introduction: We estimated cross-sectional associations between accelerometer-estimated light (LPA), moderate (MPA), and vigorous (VPA) intensity physical activity (PA) and heart rate variability (HRV), and tested mediation of these associations by glycemic control indices, blood lipids, and blood pressure. Hypothesis: PA is positively and independently associated with higher (improved) HRV. Glycemic measures are partial physiological mediators of these associations. Methods: Data were from 1,668 participants (X -age = 46 ± 4 yrs, 58% F, 40% black) in Year 20 (2005-06) of the Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults (CARDIA) Fitness Study. The ActiGraph 7164 estimated participants’ mean min/d of LPA, MPA, and VPA over 7d. Three sequential 10-sec 12-lead ECG strips provided standard deviation of all normal RR intervals (SDNN) and root mean square of all successive RR intervals (rMSSD) HRV. Physiological mediators included fasting glucose and insulin as well as 2-hr oral glucose tolerance (OGTT), fasting triglycerides (TG), HDL-C, and systolic blood pressure (BP). Multiple linear regression, controlling for demographic and lifestyle confounders, assessed independent associations of PA with SDNN and rMSSD HRV per 1-SD. Mediation analyses computed the proportion of the PA-HRV associations attributable to physiological mediators. Results: Participants averaged 360.2 ± 83.8, 33.0 ± 22.0, and 2.7 ± 6.2 min/d of LPA, MPA, and VPA, respectively, with mean values for SDNN (32.6 ± 22.4 ms) and rMSSD (34.0 ± 24.8 ms) similar. VPA was associated with both HRV metrics (SDNN: std = .06 [.03, .10]; rMSSD: std = .08, [.05, .12]) and LPA with rMSSD only (std = .05, [.01, .08]). Fasting glucose and insulin mediated between 11.6%-20.7% of the association of VPA and LPA with HRV (Table). Triglycerides also mediated these associations (range: 9.6%-13.4%; Table). Conclusions: Accelerometer-estimated VPA and LPA were positively associated with higher HRV. These associations may be due most to glycemia and insulinemia.
