Short-term vascular hemodynamic responses to isometric exercise in young adults and in the elderly
Clinical Interventions in Aging Apr 11, 2018
Hartog R, et al. - Researchers sought to determine changes in vascular hemodynamics in response to isometric handgrip exercise across ages. Using the Mobil-o-Graph based on the pulsatile pressure changes in the brachial artery and one-way ANOVA test, vascular hemodynamics and the changes induced by isometric handgrip exercise were, respectively, assessed among participants divided into three age categories: 20–40, 41–60, and 61–80 years. After isometric challenge, increased blood pressure levels were noted. Also, a strong association was observed between handgrip strength and change in blood pressure levels and aortic stiffness in elderly subjects.
