Post-exercise hypotensive response in stroke patients following acute moderate or high intensity cycling session
CONCLUSIONS: Those results suggest that HIIT induce a systolic blood pressure reduction of greater magnitude than MICT immediately after cycling exercise among patients with prior ischemic stroke or TIA. For both exercises, effects on ambulatory blood pressure are similar and persist up to 8 hours.PMID:34651612 | DOI:10.23736/S0022-4707.21.12823-3

Three-week exercise and protein intake immediately after exercise increases the 6-min walking distance with simultaneously improved plasma volume in patients with chronic cerebrovascular disease: a preliminary prospective study
ConclusionsIn chronic post-stroke patients, 3-week rehabilitation combined with protein intake immediately after exercise increased 6MWD simultaneously with increased PV and BV, but it did not increase resting blood pressure. The present regimen is acceptable and effective for ambulatory patients with chronic cerebrovascular disease.Name of the registry Examining effects of protein supplementation on functional improvement during rehabilitation intervention in chronic stroke patientsTrial registration number UMIN000028009; date of registration: 30/06/2017. This study was registered prospectively.

Influence of Endurance and Resistance Exercise Order on the Postexercise Hemodynamic Responses in Hypertensive Women
Abstract: Menêses, AL, Forjaz CL, Lima, PFM, Batista, RMF, Monteiro, MF, and Ritti-Dias, RM. Influence of endurance and resistance exercise order on the postexercise hemodynamic responses in hypertensive women. J Strength Cond Res 29(3): 612–618, 2015—The study aims to evaluate the effects of the order of endurance and resistance exercises on postexercise blood pressure (BP) and hemodynamics in hypertensive women. Nineteen hypertensive women underwent 3 sessions: control (50 minutes rest), endurance (50–60% of heart rate reserve) followed by resistance exercise (50% of 1 repetition maximum) (E + R), and resistance f...

Osteoarthritis and other long-term health conditions in former elite cricketers
Conclusions Heart problems were significantly lower, while OA, THR, TKR, anxiety, and depression were significantly higher in the former cricketers compared to the normal population (ELSA). Most former cricketers reflected positively on their career.

Cardiovascular considerations in middle-aged athletes at risk for coronary artery disease.
This article reviews exercise-related risks for sudden death and the performance of a global cardiovascular risk assessment. The need for additional preexercise risk stratification with electrocardiogram, graded exercise testing, or echocardiography is outlined. In addition, the optimum choice of medications for hypertension or dyslipidemia treatment and the effects of these medications and aspirin on endurance exercise are reviewed.

150 minutes of vigorous physical activity per week predicts survival and successful ageing: a population-based 11-year longitudinal study of 12 201 older Australian men.
CONCLUSIONS: Sustained physical activity is associated with improved survival and healthy ageing in older men. Vigorous physical activity seems to promote healthy ageing and should be encouraged when safe and feasible. PMID: 24002240 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Blood Pressure Changes Following Aerobic Exercise in Caucasian and Chinese Descendants
Int J Sports MedDOI: 10.1055/s-0034-1390493Acute aerobic exercise produces post-exercise hypotension (PEH). Chinese populations have lower prevalence of cardiovascular disease compared to Caucasians. PEH may be associated cardiovascular disease through its influence on hypertension. The purpose of this study was to compare PEH between Caucasian and Chinese subjects following acute aerobic exercise. 62 (30 Caucasian and 32 Chinese, 50% male) subjects underwent measurement of peripheral and central hemodynamics as well as arterial and cardiac evaluations, 30 min and 60 min after 45 min of treadmill exercise. Caucasians...

Hypertension screening of commercial divers from an occupational medicine perspective.
Abstract Hypertension is one of the most common chronic diseases in the world: in the United States, it affects one-third of the adult population. Most cases are primary hypertension - with no identified cause - and significantly increase risk for cardiovascular disease and stroke. At NASA's Neutral Buoyancy Laboratory (NBL), there is a cadre of professional divers who provide underwater support during extravehicular activity training (EVAs, commonly referred to as "spacewalks") for astronauts. The NBL occupational health program requires regular "work-site" physical exams, including blood pressure checks, on at l...

Walking Speed, Risk Factors, and Cardiovascular Events in Older Adults—Systematic Review
We examined the associations of WS measures with markers of cardiovascular risk and with cardiovascular events in noninstitutionalized subjects older than 60 years. A systematic review of observational studies was conducted using MEDLINE and SCOPUS from inception of the databases to December 2014, aiming at studies that evaluated WS as the primary outcome (usual or maximal pace) within a distance ≤20 m associated with cardiovascular health. All 15 included studies (29,845 subjects) reported significant associations of WS with different cardiovascular risk factors (coronary artery calcification, C-reactive protein, hypert...
