Efeito agudo do exercício aeróbio contínuo, intervalado e resistido na pressão arterial em idosas hipertensas / Acute effect of continuous aerobic exercise, interval and resistive on blood pressure in hypertensive elderly women

Giulliard de Oliveira Campos 18 September 2017 (has links)
Objetivo: O presente estudo investigou as respostas hemodinâmicas agudas da pressão arterial sistólica (PAS), pressão arterial diastólica (PAD) e frequência cardíaca (FC), imediatamente e nas 24 horas após o exercício, em idosas hipertensas, submetidas a 3 tipos de exercícios físicos e um momento controle (C). Métodos: Participaram do estudo 30 idosas hipertensas sob terapia medicamentosa. Todas as idosas foram submetidas aos protocolos de exercício aeróbio contínuo (AC), exercício aeróbio intervalado (AI), exercício resistido (ER) e a (C), com o intervalo mínimo de 7 dias para assegurar o efeito agudo de cada intervenção, em ordem randomizada. Todas as participantes foram submetidas previamente ao teste ergométrico, utilizando-se o protocolo de rampa devido a sua melhor acurácia para a população em estudo. A prescrição do AC e do AI foi feita por meio da frequência cardíaca máxima (FCM) obtida no teste. Na intervenção do AC foi calculada a frequência cardíaca de treinamento (FCT), com a intensidade de 70% FCM, com duração de 40 minutos de exercício. No AI foi utilizado a alternância de 80% da FCM no período de condicionamento, durante 2 minutos, e 60% da FCM, durante 2 minutos, para o período de recuperação, com duração de 40 minutos de exercício. O ER foi conduzido após obtenção de uma repetição máxima (1RM) em três exercícios para os principais grupos musculares: chest press, leg press e remada sentada e mais seis exercícios resistidos comumente utilizados para a prescrição do treinamento de força nas academias, utilizando o número de repetições adequadas por meio da escala de percepção subjetiva de esforço (PSE). A intensidade do ER foi de 50% de 1RM para dez repetições para o aquecimento específico e, após 1 minuto, a carga era ajustada para 70% de 1RM e realizava-se uma série entre 6 e 10 repetições para o condicionamento em todos os exercícios. Os valores da PAS, PAD e FC foram obtidos antes e após as sessões dos exercícios pelo método oscilométrico e, após cada sessão era realizada a monitorização ambulatorial da pressão arterial (MAPA) de 24 horas nos 4 momentos. Os dados foram avaliados pelo modelo de efeitos mistos. Resultados: Os dados obtidos no período pré e pós exercícios, mostraram redução em menor valor da variável PAS após a realização do AI e AC comparados ao ER no momento pós exercício (p<0,01). Na FC foi observado aumento no período pós exercício em AI e AC em comparação com ER e de ER em relação ao C (p<0,01). As observações nas 24 horas subsequentes foram obtidas por meio da MAPA, com maior redução da PAS em AI nas 24 horas do que nos outros grupos, sendo a redução da PAS em ER também maior do que em AC e C (p<0,01). Na PAD, a redução em AI e ER foram similares. Considerando apenas o período de vigília, a redução de PAS em AI foi superior aos outros grupos. No período de sono, AI e ER promoveram maiores reduções na PAS, com maior redução da variável PAD em ER (p<0,01). Conclusão: A prática de exercício físico intervalado e resistido promovem maior hipotensão pósexercício (HPE) ao longo das 24 horas subsequentes, em relação ao AC e C. O exercício aeróbio contínuo promove apenas redução da pressão arterial nas primeiras horas após o exercício. / Objective: The present study investigated the acute hemodynamic responses of systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP) and heart rate (HR), immediately and within 24 hours after exercise, in hypertensive elderly women submitted to 3 types of physical exercise and control. Methods: Thirty hypertensive elderly women in drug therapy participated of the study. They all underwent to continuous aerobic exercise (CA), interval aerobic (IA), resistance exercise (RE) and control (C), with a minimum interval of 7 days, in random order. All participants were previously submitted to the treadmill stress test, using the ramp protocol due to its better accuracy for the study population. The prescription of the CA and the IA was done by maximum heart rate (MHR) obtained by the test. In the CA intervention, training heart rate (THR) was calculated, with the intensity of 70% MHR, with duration of 40 minutes of exercise. In the IA, we used 80% of the MHR during the conditioning period for 2 minutes and 60% of the MHR during 2 minutes for the recovery period, lasting 40 minutes. The ER was conducted after obtaining a maximal repetition (1RM) in three exercises for the main muscle groups: chest press, leg press and seated paddling, and six more commonly used resistance exercises for the prescription of strength training in the academies, using the number of adequate repetitions through the subjective perception of effort scale (PES). The RE intensity was 50% of 1RM for ten replicates for the specific heating and after 1 minute the load was adjusted to 70% of 1RM, and a range of 6 to 10 replicates were performed for the conditioning. The SBP, DBP and HR values were obtained before and after the exercise sessions by the oscillometric method and after that, 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) was performed in the 4 moments. The data were evaluated by the mixed effects model. Results: Data obtained in the pre and post exercise period showed a decrease in the SBP variable after IA and CA compared to the RE (p <0.01). In the HR, we observed increase in the post-exercise period in IA and CA compared to RE and RE in relation to C (p <0.01). The observations in the subsequent 24 hours were obtained through ABPM, with a greater fall in SBP in IA in 24 hours than in the other groups, with a decrease in RE also greater than in CA and C (p <0.01). In DBP, IA and RE fall were similar. Considering only the waking period, the SBP decrease in IA was higher than the other groups. In the sleep period, IA and RE promoted fall in SBP, with a greater fall in DBP in RE (p <0.01). Conclusion: The practice of interval aerobic and resistance exercise promoted greater post-exercise hypotension (PEH) during the subsequent 24 hours, compared to CA and C. Continuous aerobic exercise promotes only drop in the first hours after exercise.

Vera Lucia Toscano Stocco 24 November 2015 (has links)
Ao considerar que os distúrbios respiratórios relacionados ao sono, apneia obstrutiva do sono (AOS) e dessaturação noturna de oxigênio (DNO), podem estar presentes em pacientes com doença pulmonar obstrutiva crônica (DPOC), este estudo teve como objetivos: (1) estimar a frequência de AOS e DNO na amostra e nos graus e categorias GOLD (Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease); (2) avaliar a relação da presença de AOS e DNO no agravamento clínico de pacientes com DPOC. Estudo transversal em 56 pacientes com DPOC estável e pressão parcial arterial de oxigênio (PaO2) diurna > 60 mmHg, submetidos à coleta dos seguintes dados: demográficos, antropométricos e de hábito tabágico; relato de ronco e sonolência diurna; número de exacerbações e hospitalizações; escala de dispneia do Medical Reserch Council modificada; teste de avaliação da DPOC; escala de sonolência de Epworth; espirometria; gasometria arterial; hemograma; monitorização ambulatorial da pressão arterial e polissonografia. Os pacientes foram classificados em graus e categorias GOLD e divididos em 3 grupos de estudo: grupo DPOC pura, grupo síndrome de sobreposição (SS) e grupo dessaturador (D). Os resultados mostraram: 30 pacientes do sexo masculino (54%); idade: 63,7 (DP=7,3) anos; índice de massa corpórea (IMC): 25,2 (DP=4,3) Kg/m2; circunferência do pescoço: 38,4 (DP=3,2) cm; 46% tabagistas; carga tabágica: 50,0 (DP=20,7) anosmaço; volume expiratório forçado no primeiro segundo (VEF1): 56,4 (DP=19,8) % do previsto; PaO2: 78,3 (DP=8,0) mmHg; saturação arterial de oxigênio (SaO2): 95,5 (DP=1,4) %; 29 pacientes (52%) eram do grupo DPOC pura, 14 (25%) do grupo SS e 13 (23%) do grupo D; frequência de AOS e DNO na amostra: 25% e 23%, respectivamente; frequência de AOS nos GOLD 1234: 14%, 24%, 25%, 50% (p=0,34) e GOLD ABCD: 44%, 15%, 25%, 26% (p=0,31), respectivamente; frequência da DNO nos GOLD 1234: 29%, 24%, 19%, 25% (p=0,88) e GOLD ABCD: 11%, 20%, 25%, 30% (p=0,35), respectivamente. Evidências de diferença estatística entre os 3 grupos: sexo (DPOC pura: 48% de homens versus SS: 86% versus D: 31%; p<0,01); IMC (DPOC pura: 23,9 (DP=3,8) versus SS: 24,7 (DP=4,6) versus D: 28,6 (DP=3,5) Kg/m2; p<0,01); circunferência do pescoço (DPOC pura: 37,4 (DP=2,7) versus SS: 40,0 (DP=2,9) versus D: 38,9 (DP=3,9) cm; p=0,03); relato de sonolência diurna (DPOC pura: 17% versus SS: 0 versus D: 38%; p=0,03); SaO2 diurna (DPOC pura: 95,8 (DP=1,5) % versus SS: 95,8 (DP=1,1) % versus D: 94,7 (DP=1,3) %; p=0,04); descenso noturno diastólico (DPOC pura: 6,5 (DP=7,0) % versus SS: 2,3 (DP=7,3) % versus D: 5,6 (DP=7,0) %; p=0,04). Conclui-se que, em pacientes com DPOC, a frequência de AOS e DNO foi elevada na amostra e não sofreu influência dos graus ou categorias GOLD; encontrou-se associação entre a presença de AOS e o sexo masculino, maior circunferência do pescoço e menor descenso noturno diastólico; e a presença de DNO associou-se com o sexo feminino, maior IMC, maior relato de sonolência diurna e menor SaO2 diurna. Estas características podem contribuir para diferenciar clinicamente os grupos SS e D do grupo DPOC pura / While considering that the sleep-related breathing disorders, obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and nocturnal oxygen desaturation (NOD) may be present in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), this study aimed to: (1) to estimate the frequency of OSA and NOD in the sample and in the GOLD degrees and categories (Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease); (2) to assess the relationship of the presence of OSA and NOD in the clinical aggravation of patients with COPD. Transversal study in 56 patients suffering from stable COPD and daytime partial arterial oxygen tension (PaO2) > 60 mmHg, subjected to the collection of the following data: demographic and anthropometric data, and smoking habit; report of snoring and daytime sleepiness; number of exacerbations and hospitalizations; modified Medical Research Council dyspnea scale; COPD assessment test; Epworth Sleepiness Scale; spirometry; arterial gasometry; hemogram; ambulatory blood pressure monitoring and polysomnography. The patients were classified in GOLD degrees and categories and divided into 3 study groups: pure COPD group, overlap syndrome (OS) and desaturator group (D). The results showed: 30 male patients (54%); age 63,7 years old (DP=7,3); body mass index (BMI) 25,2 Kg/m2 (DP=4,3); neck circumference 38,4 cm (DP=3,2); 46% smokers; smoking load 50,0 pack years (DP=20,7); forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1) 56,4% of the expected (DP=19,8); PaO2 78,3 mmHg (DP=8,0); arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2) 95,5% (DP=1,4); 29 patients (52%) belonged to the pure COPD group, 14 (25%) to the OS group and 13 (23%) to the D group; frequency of OSA and NOD in the sample: 25% and 23%, respectively; frequency of OSA in the GOLD 1234: 14%, 24%, 25%, 50% (p=0,34) and GOLD ABCD: 44%, 15%, 25%, 26% (p=0,31), respectively; NOD frequency in the GOLD 1234: 29%, 24%, 19%, 25% (p=0,88) and GOLD ABCD: 11%, 20%, 25%, 30% (p=0,35), respectively. Evidences of statistical difference among the three groups: sex (pure COPD: 48% men versus OS: 86% versus D: 31%; p<0,01); BMI (pure COPD: 23,9 (DP=3,8) versus OS: 24,7 (DP=4,6) versus D: 28,6 (DP=3,5) Kg/m2; p<0,01); neck circumference (pure COPD: 37,4 (DP=2,7) versus OS: 40,0 (DP=2,9) versus D: 38,9 (DP=3,9) cm; p=0,03); report of daytime sleepiness (pure COPD: 17% versus OS: 0 versus D: 38%; p=0,03); daytime SaO2 (pure COPD: 95,8% (DP=1,5) versus OS: 95,8% (DP=1,1) versus D: 94,7% (DP=1,3); p=0,04); diastolic sleep dip (pure COPD: 6,5% (DP=7,0) versus OS: 2,3% (DP=7,3) versus D: 5,6% (DP=7,0); p=0,04). It was concluded that, in patients with COPD, the OSA and NOD frequency was high in the sample and was not influenced by GOLD grades or categories. An association between the presence of OSA and the male sex, a larger neck circumference and a smaller diastolic sleep dip was found; and the presence of the NOD was associated with the female sex, a larger BMI, a more significant report of daytime sleepiness and a smaller daytime SaO2. These characteristics may contribute to differentiate clinically the OS and D groups from the pure COPD group

Avaliação do comportamento da pressão arterial em pacientes transplantados renais através de três métodos de mensuração / Evaluation of the blood pressure im kidney transplantation using three methods of measurement

Fabiana Agena 17 January 2011 (has links)
A hipertensão arterial apresenta alta prevalência entre os receptores de transplante renal sendo considerada um fator de risco cardiovascular importante influenciando na sobrevida do paciente e do enxerto. O objetivo principal deste estudo foi comparar se o controle da pressão arterial nos pacientes transplantados renais por meio da utilização de monitorização residencial da pressão arterial é mais comparável ao resultado da monitorização ambulatorial da pressão arterial quando comparada à medida da pressão arterial de consultório. No período de março de 2008 a abril de 2009, foram avaliados prospectivamente 183 pacientes transplantados renais, com tempo de transplante de 1 a 10 anos. Os pacientes foram submetidos a três métodos de medida de pressão arterial (PA): medida de pressão arterial em consultório, monitorização residencial da pressão arterial (MRPA), e monitorização ambulatorial da pressão arterial (MAPA). Foram avaliados 183 pacientes, dentre eles 94 eram homens (54 %) e 89 mulheres (46 %). A idade média foi de 50 ± 11 anos. O tempo de transplante médio foi de 57 ± 32 meses. Noventa e nove pacientes receberam enxertos de doadores falecidos (54 %) e 84 foram receptores de doadores vivos (46 %). Quando avaliados usando a medida de PA obtida em consultório, 56,3% apresentavam-se PA elevada e 43,7% com PA normal com média de 138,9/82,3 ± 17,8/12,1mmHg. Entretanto, quando avaliados pela MRPA, 55,2% dos indivíduos apresentavam-se PA normal e 44,8 % apresentavam-se PA elevada com média de 131,1/78,5 ± 17,4/8,9. Utilizando a MAPA observamos que 63,9 % dos indivíduos apresentavam-se PA normal e 36,1 % dos indivíduos apresentavam-se PA elevada com média de 128,8/80,5 ± 12,5/8,1. Verifica-se que os dois métodos (Consultório e MRPA) tem concordância significativa com a MAPA, mas a MRPA tem uma concordância maior que a medida de Consultório, comprovado pelo teste Exato de Fisher, com valor descritivo de 0,026. Pelo teste de McNemar, verificamos que não há simetria nos dados nos dois métodos (MRPA e Consultório). Os índices de correlação linear de Pearson dos métodos, comparadas a MAPA, foram de 0,494 para medida de consultório e de 0,768 para MRPA, com a MRPA com melhor correlação com a MAPA. Comparando os erros dos dois métodos pelo teste t pareado, obteve-se o nível descritivo de 0,837, pelo qual concluí-se que o erro médio da PA de Consultório é igual ao do MRPA. Analisando a curva ROC para as medidas de PA em cada método, observa-se que a PA em consultório apresenta-se áreas sob a curva mais baixas que as obtidas pela MRPA em relação a MAPA. Concluí-se que os resultados pressóricos obtidos com a MRPA são mais comparáveis aos resultados obtidos pela MAPA em relação àqueles obtidos pela medida de consultório, sendo factível sua realização em um hospital publico / Hypertension is highly prevalent among kidney transplantation recipients and considered an important cardiovascular risk factor influencing patient survival and kidney graft survival. The aim of this study were to compare the blood pressure (BP) control in kidney transplant patients through the use of home blood pressure monitoring is more comparable with the results of ambulatory blood pressure monitoring compared to the measurement of office blood pressure. From March 2008 to April 2009 prospectively we were evaluated 183 kidney transplant recipients with time after transplantation 1 - 10 years. Patients underwent three methods for measuring blood pressure: office blood pressure measurement (OM), home blood pressure monitoring (HBPM) and ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM). We evaluated 183 patients, among them 94 men (54%) and 89 women (46%). The average age was 50 ± 11 years. The average time of transplant was 57 ± 32 months. Ninety-nine patients received grafts from deceased donors (54%) and 84 were recipients of living donors (46%). When assessed using OM, 56.3% presented with uncontrolled and 43.7% with adequate control of BP with an average of 138.9 / 82.3 ± 17.8 / 12.1 mmHg. However, when measured by HBPM, 55.2% of subjects were controlled and 44.8% presented with uncontrolled BP with an average of 131.1 / 78.5 ± 17.4 / 8.9 mmHg. Using the ABPM we observed that 63.9% of subjects had was controlled and 36.1% of patients presented uncontrolled BP with an average 128.8 / 80.5 ± 12.5 / 8.1.mmHg We found that the two methods (OM and HBPM) has a significant agreement, but the HBPM has a higher agreement than OM, confirmed by Fisher exact test, with descriptive value of 0.026.We found that there is no symmetry in the data for both methods with McNemar test. Person´s correlation for the ABPM with the other two methods were 0.494 for office measurement and 0.768 for HBPM, best value of HBPM with ABPM. Comparing the errors of the two methods by paired t-test, we obtained the descriptive level of 0.837, we conclude that the average error is equal to OM of HBPM. Looking at the ROC curve for BP measurements in each method, we observed that BP in practice presents lower than those obtained by HBPM in relation to ABPM. We conclude that the results obtained with HBPM were closer to the ABPM results than those obtained with blood pressure obtained at OM

Ambulatory blood pressure:association with metabolic risk indicators, renal function and carotid artery atherosclerosis

Vasunta, R.-L. (Riitta-Liisa) 20 November 2012 (has links)
Abstract Blood pressure is usually measured on a clinic visit as a momentary value. It can also be defined as a continuum based on several repeated measurements. Ambulatory blood pressure measurement (ABPM) is a method of repeated BP measurements targeted to evaluate the circadian blood pressure (BP). Nondipping, i.e., the lack of reduction of BP during the night, has been shown to associate with cardiovascular endpoints. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between 24-hour ABPM and cardio-metabolic confounders in a cross-sectional, population-based study design. Particular attention was paid to the nondipping phenomenon. Adiponectin, a hormone secreted by the adipose tissue, has vasoprotective and anti-inflammatory effects. Reduced adiponectin level has been associated with hypertension. In this study adiponectin level was inversely associated with daytime systolic BP, but showed no association with nondipping. Hypertension is one component of metabolic syndrome (MS). MS has been associated with nondipping. The association between ABPM and metabolic abnormalities was studied in subjects without known hypertension or type 2 diabetes. Subjects with impaired glucose metabolism were more likely to belong to the group of nondippers. Fatty liver is considered as the hepatic manifestation of MS. A significantly higher prevalence of fatty liver has been seen in hypertensives compared to normotensive controls, elevating their risk for cardiovascular morbidity. The association between ABPM characteristics and fatty liver was evaluated in the present study. Significantly higher systolic ABPM levels were seen in subjects with fatty liver, but no association with nondipping existed. The kidney vasculature is prone to injury under a high continuous circadian BP load and lacking nighttime drop. This may lead to diminished glomerular filtration rate. Our study showed a significant independent association between renal function and the dipping status. Reduction in renal function was associated with increased risk of nondipping pattern. Carotid intima-media thickness (cIMT), the surrogate marker of early atherosclerosis, has been associated with blunted nocturnal BP drop. The association between cIMT and dipping status was explored. Nondipping pattern was associated with increased cIMT. In conclusion, ABPM specifies the information of circadian and nighttime BP level not achievable with conventional BP measurement. This is especially beneficial in metabolic abnormalities when the risk of cardiovascular morbidity is increased. / Tiivistelmä Väitöstutkimuksessa osoitettiin, että vuorokausiverenpaineen mittauksella eli ambulatorisella verenpaineenmittauksella on erityistä merkitystä sydän- ja verenpainesairastavuutta lisäävien metabolisten häiriöiden yhteydessä. Työssä haluttiin selvittää 24 tunnin aikana mitatun verenpainetason ja puuttuvan yöaikaisen verenpaineenlaskun eli nondipping-ilmiön yhteyttä tunnettuihin metabolisiin riskitekijöihin ja kaulavaltimoseinämän paksuuntumaan. Kyseessä on suomalaiseen, keski-ikäiseen väestöotokseen kohdistunut poikkileikkaustutkimus. Tavallisesti yöaikainen verenpainetaso laskee 10&#160;% tai enemmän päiväaikaiseen verenpainetasoon nähden (dipping). Verenpaineen lasku voi kuitenkin jäädä puutteelliseksi (nondipping). Nondipping-ilmiön on todettu lisäävän sydän- ja verisuonisairastuvuuden riskiä. Kaulavaltimoseinämän paksuuntumaa on pidetty merkkinä varhaisesta valtimosairaudesta ja maksan rasvakertymä katsottu osaksi metabolista oireyhtymää. Metabolisiin häiriöihin sekä munuaistoiminnan häiriöihin liittyy lisääntynyt valtimosairauden riski. Väitöstutkimuksessa vuorokausiverenpaine mitattiin mukana kannettavalla automaattisella verenpaineenmittausmenetelmällä eli ambulatorisella verenpaineenmittauksella. Lisäksi verenpaine mitattiin tavalliseen tapaan vastaanottokäynnin yhteydessä. Maksan rasvaisuutta ja kaulavaltimon seinämäpaksuutta tutkittiin ultraäänilaitteella. Tavanomaisten taustamuuttujien lisäksi kerättiin laboratoriotietoa sokeriaineenvaihdunnasta, munuaissuodoksen määrästä sekä rasvakudoksen erittämän adiponektiinihormonin määrästä. Nondipping-ilmiön todettiin olevan itsenäisesti yhteydessä sokeriaineenvaihdunnan häiriöön, munuaissuodoksen alenemaan ja kaulavaltimon seinämäpaksuuntumaan. Kohonnut päiväaikainen systolinen verenpainetaso oli yhteydessä verisuoniston kannalta epäedulliseen adiponektiinihormonitasoon. Sekä systolinen että diastolinen verenpainetaso oli korkeampi henkilöillä, joilla todettiin maksan rasvoittuma kuin niillä, joilla ei ollut maksan rasvoittumaa. Tutkimus osoitti ambulatorisen verenpaineenmittauksen tuovan merkittävää lisätietoa etenkin sydän- ja verisuonisairastuvuuden riskiä jo sinällään lisäävissä tiloissa, kuten metabolisissa häiriöissä ja munuaistoiminnan alentumassa. Koska metaboliset häiriöt lisääntyvät jatkuvasti, on todennäköistä, että vuorokausiverenpaineen mittaus yleistyy osana valtimosairastavuuden kokonaisriskin arviointia.

Person´s correlation for the ABPM with the other two methods were 0.494 for office measurement and 0.768 for HBPM, best value of HBPM with ABPM. Comparing the errors of the two methods by paired t-test, we obtained the descriptive level of 0.837, we conclude that the average error is equal to OM of HBPM. Looking at the ROC curve for BP measurements in each method, we observed that BP in practice presents lower than those obtained by HBPM in relation to ABPM. We conclude that the results obtained with HBPM were closer to the ABPM results than those obtained with blood pressure obtained at OM

Perceived Racism and Blood Pressure in Foreign-Born Mexicans

Merideth, Richard Iztcoatl 01 July 2013 (has links) (PDF)
Studies have identified perceived racism as one type of social stress that is believed to contribute to hypertension, though no studies to date have examined the relationship between perceived racism and blood pressure among foreign-born Mexicans living in the United States (U.S.). In addition, studies have shown that acculturation may increase levels of perceived discrimination among foreign-born Mexicans living in the U.S. The primary purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between perceived racism and ambulatory blood pressure among a convenience sample of 332 foreign-born Mexicans living in Utah County, Utah controlling for age, gender, body mass index (BMI), and acculturation. This was done through the use of several multiple regression analyses using archival data collected at Brigham Young University. The Perceived Ethnic Discrimination Questionnaire—Community Version (Brief PEDQ—CV) was used to measure perceived racism. The Acculturation Rating Scale for Mexican Americans (ARSMA-II) was used to measure both language and general acculturation. Four blood pressure variables, including waking systolic blood pressure (WSBP), waking diastolic blood pressure (WDBP), sleeping systolic blood pressure (SSBP), and sleeping diastolic blood pressure (SDBP) were used as outcome variables in the regression analyses. A relationship between perceived racism and any of the ambulatory blood pressure variables used in this study was not found. In addition, English-language acculturation was not found to moderate the relationship between perceived racism and blood pressure in the sample of first generation Mexicans participating in this study. A moderating effect of general acculturation on the relationship between perceived racism and blood pressure was found when controlling for age, BMI, and gender, though this moderating effect disappeared when WDBP was included in the regression model. Implications of findings, limitations, and directions for future research are discussed.

Sensibilidade barorreflexa e resposta inotrópica ao exercício e nas 24 horas em indivíduos com síndrome metabólica conforme classificação da pressão arterial / Baroreflex sensitivity and inotropic response to exercise and at 24 hours in subjects with metabolic syndrome according to blood pressure classification

Marques, Akothirene Cristhina Dutra Brisolla 18 August 2017 (has links)
Introdução. A progressão da síndrome metabólica (SMet) para a doença cardiovascular é complexa, multifatorial e pode estar associada, em parte, com a hiperativação simpática e com a diminuição da sensibilidade barorreflexa (SBR), mecanismos fortemente associados à hipertensão arterial (HAS). Adicionalmente, na hipertensão a resposta da pressão arterial (PA) durante o teste de esforço cardiopulmonar máximo (TECP) e na pressão arterial de 24h (MAPA) está prejudicada. Não é conhecido se pacientes com SMet mas sem hipertensão, apresentam estes prejuízos. Hipóteses. Pacientes com SMet com nível normal de PA clínica apresentam:(1) Resposta aumentada da PA pico e da PA de recuperação em resposta ao exercício máximo; (2) Prejuízo na PA de 24 horas Além disso, analisamos se estas alterações se correlacionam com a atividade nervosa simpática muscular (ANSM) e com a SBR. Métodos. Foram selecionados 72 pacientes recém-diagnosticados com SMet (ATP III), alocados em 3 grupos conforme a classificação da PA (segundo as Diretrizes 2013 ESH/ESC):, SMet hipertensos (HT, n=16, 51±9 anos, 33±4 kg/m2), SMet pré-hipertensos (PHT, n=29, 47±10 anos, 31±3 kg/m2) e SMet normotensos (NT, n=27, 46±7 anos, 32±4 kg/m2). Um grupo controle (C, n=19, 48±2 anos, 25±2 kg/m2) pareado por gênero e idade foi envolvido no estudo. Foram avaliados: a ANSM (microneurografia); a SBR (análise das flutuações espontâneas da PA sistólica e FC) para aumentos (SBR+) e diminuições da PA (SBR-); medidas auscultatórias da PA no pré-teste, pico, 1°, 2° e 4° min de recuperação (TECP); e PAS e PAD de 24 horas, vigília, sono e despertar (MAPA de 24h). O estudo foi dividido em duas partes: Parte 1 - todos os grupos com SMet (HT, PHT e NT) e C foram estudados; e Parte 2 - somente o grupo SMet NT foi comparado ao C. Resultados - Parte 1. Os grupos SMet (HT, PHT e NT) foram semelhantes entre si e apresentaram prejuízo quando comparado ao grupo C nas características físicas, na capacidade física e nos fatores de risco da SMet. Na PAS pico atingida no TECP, o grupo SMet HT apresentou valores superiores quando comparado com SMet PHT, NT, e C (217±23 vs. 202±22; 195±17; 177±24 mmHg; respectivamente; P=0,03). Apresentaram resposta da PAS exagerada (PAS >190 mmHg para mulheres e > 210 mmHg para homens) 81% no grupo HT, 55% no PHT, 37% no NT e 21% no C. Na MAPA, SMet HT apresentou maior PA de 24h que os outros 3 grupos. (P < 0,001). A ANSM foi maior nos grupos SMet HT, PHT e NT quando comparados ao C (33±7; 30±7; 29±6; vs. 18±1 disparos/min, respectivamente, P < 0,001). Somente o grupo SMet HT apresentou menor SBR+ quando comparado ao grupo C (6±3; 8±3; 9±3; vs. 11±5 mmHg/ms; P=0,002). Os grupos SMet HT e PHT apresentaram menor SBR-, enquanto SMet NT foi semelhante ao C (7±2; 9±4; 10±3; vs. 12±5 mmHg/ms; P < 0,05). Houve correlação entre a SBR- e a PAS pico (r=-0,32, P=0,04) com todos os sujeitos dos grupos da SMet e C. Resultados Parte 2. Exceto na PAS no 4º min de recuperação, o grupo SMet NT apresentou maior PAS e PAD comparado ao C em todos os momentos do TECP. O comportamento da PAS e PAD pela área sob a curva (ASC) total foi maior no SMet NT comparado ao C. Na MAPA de 24h, SMet NT apresentou menor PAD no sono que C. Além disso, SMet NT apresentou menor SBR+ e SBR- e maior ANSM comparado ao C. Interessantemente, no subgrupo de pacientes com SMet NT (n=10, 37%) que apresentou PAS pico exagerada a SBR- se correlacionou fortemente com a PAS pico (r=-0,70, P=0,02) e com a PAS no 1º min de recuperação (r=-0,73, P=0,04). Conclusão: Pacientes com SMet, mesmo normotensos, já apresentam resposta exacerbada da PAS e da PAD durante o TECP, dos quais 40% com PAS pico exagerada. A disfunção autonômica pode explicar, pelo menos em parte, esta reposta exacerbada / Introduction. The progression of the metabolic syndrome (MetS) to cardiovascular disease is complex, multifactorial and may be associated in part with sympathetic hyperactivation and reduced baroreflex sensitivity (BRS), mechanisms strongly associated with arterial hypertension (AH). Additionally, in hypertension, the BP response during the maximal cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) and 24h BP (ABPM) is impaired. It is not known whether patients with MetS but without hypertension present those damages. Hypotheses. Patients with MetS with normal clinical BP level present: (1) Increased response of peak BP and recovery BP in response to maximal exercise; (2) Impaired 24 hour BP. In addition, we analyzed if those changes are associated with muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) and BRS. Methods. We selected 72 newly diagnosed patients with MetS (ATP III), subdivided in 3 groups according to the BP classification (according to the ESH/ESC Guidelines): hypertensive MetS (HT, n=16, 51±9 years, 33±4 kg/m2), pre-hypertensive MetS (PHT, n=29, 47± 10 years, 31±3 kg/m2) and normotensive MetS (NT, n= 27, 46±7 years, 32±4 kg/m2). A control group (C, n=19, 48±2 years, 25±2 kg/m2) paired by gender and age was involved in the study. The following were evaluated: the MSNA (microneurography); BRS (analysis of spontaneous fluctuations of systolic BP and HR) for increases to BP (SBR+) and for decreases to BP (SBR-); BP auscultatory measurements in the pre-test, peak, 1st, 2nd and 4th min of recovery (CPET); and SBP and DBP of 24 hours, wakefulness, sleep and awakening (24-hour ABPM). The study was divided into two parts: Part 1. All groups with MetS (HT, PHT and NT) were studied; and C group. Part 2. Only the NT MetS group was compared to the C. Results Part 1. The MetS groups (HT, PHT and NT) were similar and were impaired compared to group C in physical characteristics, physical capacity and risk factors of MetS. In the peak SBP reached at CPET, HT MetS group presented higher values when compared to PHT and NT MetS groups and C (217±23 vs. 202±22, 195±17, 177±-24 mmHg, respectively, P=0.03). There was an exaggerated SBP response (SBP > 190 mmHg for women and > 210 mmHg for men) in 81% of the HT group, 55% of the PHT, 37% of the NT and 21% of the C group. In the ABPM, HT MetS had a higher 24-hour BP than the other 3 groups (P < 0.001). The MSNA was higher in HT, PHT and NT MetS groups when compared to C (33±7, 30±7, 29±6, vs. 18±1 burst/min, respectively, P < 0.001). Only the HT MetS group showed lower SBR+ compared to C (6±3, 8±3, 9±3, vs. 11±5 mmHg/ms, P=0.002). The HT and PHT MetS groups presented lower SBR-, while NT MetS was similar to C (7±2; 9 ±4; 10±3, vs. 12±5 mmHg/ms; P < 0.05). There was a correlation between SBR- and peak SBP (r= -0.32, P=0.04) with all subjects from the MetS and C groups. Results Part 2. Except for SBP in the 4th min of recovery, NT MetS presented higher SBP and DBP compared to C at all moments of the CPET. The SBP and DBP responses by AUC analysis were higher in NT MetS compared to C. In 24h ABPM, NT MetS presented lower DBP in the sleep than in C. In addition, NT MetS presented decreased SBR+ and SBR- and increased MSNA compared with C. Interestingly, in the NT MetS subgroup of patients (n=10, 37%) who showed an exaggerated peak SBP, showed a negative correlation between BRS- and peak SBP (r=-.70; P=0.01) and SBP at 1st minute of recovery (r=.73; P=0.04). Conclusion. Patients with MetS, even normotensive, already present an exacerbated SBP and DBP response during CPET, of which 40% with exaggerated peak SBP. Autonomic dysfunction may explain, at least in part, this exacerbated response

Predictors of left ventricular hypertrophy, diastolic dysfunction and atrial fibrillation:the roles of adiponectin, ambulatory blood pressure and dietary sodium intake

Pääkkö, T. (Tero) 27 November 2018 (has links)
Abstract Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), a common complication of elevated blood pressure (BP), is a risk factor for cardiovascular (CV) morbidity and mortality. Adiponectin has been shown to have cardioprotective effects and is inversely associated with LVH. BP can be measured at a clinical visit, as a momentary value. Ambulatory blood pressure (APB) measurement (ABPM) is a method of repeated BP measurements through a defined period, targeted to evaluate the circadian BP profile. High BP and ABPM have been shown to be associated with LVH and left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD). A high sodium intake has been associated with elevated BP and adverse CV outcome. The aim of this study was to investigate the associations between adiponectin and left ventricular mass index (LVMI), a measure of LVH, ABPM and the development of LVDD during long-term follow-up, ABPM and the change in LVMI during long-term follow-up, and the role of dietary sodium intake in the incidence of AF. Adiponectin has been shown to have vasoprotective, anti-inflammatory and cardioprotective effects. Hypoadiponectinemia has been associated with hypertension, coronary artery disease (CAD) and LVH. In this study, adiponectin levels were inversely associated with LVMI, even after adjustment with conventional risk factors of LVH, in a fairly large sample of middle-aged subjects. Elevated BP and pulse pressure (PP) have been associated with echocardiographic measures of LVDD. In this study, the association between APBM and the development of LVDD during a 20-year follow-up was evaluated. Ambulatory PP (APP) was shown to independently associate with the development of LVDD, even after adjustment with conventional risk factors of LVDD. APBM has been associated with LVH in cross-sectional assessments and has also been shown to have predictive value in future LVMI or LVH. In a few studies the predictive value of APP in future LVMI was observed. In the present study, an increase in APP was shown to predict the change in LVMI during long-term follow-up. In this study, the association between dietary sodium intake and the incidence of AF was evaluated. A high sodium intake predicted the occurrence of AF, which is a novel finding. In conclusion, this study offers novel findings about predictive factors in the entity of cardiac remodelling. / Tiivistelmä Vasemman kammion hypertrofia on yleinen kohonneen verenpaineen seuraus ja sen on todettu olevan sydän- ja verisuonitapahtumien riskitekijä. Adiponektiinin on osoitettu suojaavan vasemman kammion hypertrofialta. Ambulatorinen verenpaineen mittaus on menetelmä, jossa verenpaine mitataan määritellyllä ajanjaksolla toistuvasti, mikä antaa kuvan verenpaineesta vuorokauden eri jaksoissa. Kohonneella ambulatorisella verenpaineella on osoitettu olevan yhteys vasemman kammion hypertrofiaan sekä vasemman kammion diastoliseen vajaatoimintaan. Runsas natriumin saanti on yhteydessä kohonneeseen verenpaineeseen sekä sydän- ja verisuonisairauksiin. Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena on selvittää yhteyksiä adiponektiinin ja vasemman kammion massaindeksin välillä, ambulatorisen verenpaineen ja vasemman kammion diastolisen vajaatoiminnan kehittymisen välillä, ambulatorisen verenpaineen ja vasemman kammion massaindeksin muutoksen välillä sekä natriumin saannin ja eteisvärinän ilmaantuvuuden välillä. Adiponektiinilla on todettu olevan suotuisia vaikutuksia verisuonistoon, tulehdusreaktion hillintään sekä sydänlihakseen. Matalan adiponektiinitason on osoitettu olevan yhteydessä verenpainetautiin, sepelvaltimotautiin sekä vasemman kammion hypertrofiaan. Tässä tutkimuksessa adiponektiinihormonilla osoitettiin olevan käänteinen yhteys vasemman kammion massaindeksiin, vaikka perinteiset riskitekijät otettiin huomioon. Kohonneella verenpaineella sekä pulssipaineella on osoitettu olevan yhteys vasemman kammion diastoliseen vajaatoimintaan. Tässä tutkimuksessa arvioitiin ambulatorisen verenpaineen merkitystä vasemman kammion diastolisen vajaatoiminnan kehittymisessä. Ambulatorinen pulssipaine osoittautui riskitekijäksi, vaikka perinteiset riskitekijät otettiin huomioon. Ambulatorisella verenpaineella ja pulssipaineella on osoitettu olevan yhteys vasemman kammion hypertrofiaan poikkileikkaustutkimuksissa ja seurantatutkimuksissa. Tässä tutkimuksessa ambulatorisen pulssipaineen nousun havaittiin ennustavan vasemman kammion massaindeksin kasvua pitkäaikaisseurannassa. Tässä tutkimuksessa korkean natriumin saannin todettiin olevan yhteydessä lisääntyneeseen eteisvärinän ilmaantuvuuteen. Tätä yhteyttä ei ole aiemmin todettu muissa tutkimuksissa. Tässä tutkimuksessa löydettiin uusia riskitekijöitä sydämen patologisiin ilmentymiin liittyen.

No. of bitstreams: 1 Rafaella Santos.pdf: 19865129 bytes, checksum: eb985146ffff941f87977dbb7f5d7b13 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2015-07-29 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / The 72kDa heat shock proteins are synthesized in our cells and are exported to the blood (eHSP72) in situations changed as oxidative stress and cardiovascular disease. However, both eHSP72 levels as impaired endothelial function has been associated with worse cardiovascular prognosis, including increased mortality. However, little is known about the association of these variables with 24h blood pressure in hypertensive. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between 24h blood pressure and levels of plasma eHSP72, oxidative stress parameters, endotelial function, body composition and physical activity in hypertensive patients. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study which evaluated 140 hypertensive patients (age 61 } 11.1 years) treated and followed by a Basic Health Unit. Were analyzed: 24h blood pressure, level of physical activity, usual by pedometer and endothelial function by plethysmography. In plasma concentrations were evaluated eHSP72 (by ELISA), the activity of the antioxidant enzymes catalase (CAT) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) and lipid peroxidation levels (TBARS). Results: Hypertensive patients were classified as insufficiently active (8089.7 } 4287.9 steps/day). A binary logistic regression showed that those with overweight and obesity are more likely to have daytime systolic blood pressure (SBP) increased wakefulness compared to eutrophic. The same analysis also showed that the increase in vasodilatory capacity by reactive hyperemia (1ml/100ml tissue /min) reduces the chances of having daytime SBP change. Another important finding was that hypertensive patients with detectable eHSP72 were more likely to have nocturnal dipping present. There was no association between the variables of 24h blood pressure and the variables of oxidative stress. Conclusion: altered anthropometric indicators are associated with the daytime SBP uncontrolled, which may be indicative of cardiovascular overload. The night-time fall of blood pressure during sleep is associated with the expression of eHSP72, indicating that this protein may be associated in the modulation of a protective vascular function. / Proteínas de choque térmico de 72kDa são sintetizadas em nossas células e são exportadas para a corrente sanguínea (eHSP72) diante de situações como estresse oxidativo alterado e doenças cardiovasculares. Além disso, tanto os níveis de eHSP72 como a função endotelial prejudicada têm sido associados ao pior prognostico cardiovascular, incluindo aumento de mortalidade. No entanto, pouco se sabe sobre a associação destas variáveis com a pressão arterial de 24h em hipertensos. O objetivo deste estudo foi investigar a associação entre a pressão arterial de 24h e os níveis de eHSP72 plasmático, parâmetros de estresse oxidativo, função endotelial, composição corporal e o nível de atividade física em hipertensos. Métodos: Este é um estudo transversal no qual foram avaliados 140 hipertensos (idade 61±11,1 anos) tratados e acompanhados por uma Unidade básica de Saúde. Foram analisados: pressão arterial de 24h por monitorização ambulatorial (MAPA), nível de atividade física habitual por pedômetro e função endotelial por pletismografia. No plasma foram avaliadas as concentrações de eHSP72 (por ELISA), a atividade de enzimas antioxidantes catalase (CAT) e superóxido dismutase (SOD) e os níveis de lipoperoxidação (TBARS). Resultados: Os hipertensos foram classificados como pouco ativos (8089,7±4287,9 passos/dia). A regressão logística binária apresentou que aqueles com sobrepeso e obesidade têm mais chances de ter pressão arterial sistólica (PAS) da vigília aumentada em relação aos eutróficos. A mesma análise mostrou ainda que o aumento da capacidade vasodilatadora por hiperemia reativa (1 ml/100ml de tecido/min) reduz as chances de ter a PAS da vigília alterada. Outro achado de destaque e também inovador foi que hipertensos com eHSP72 detectável apresentaram mais chances de ter o descenso noturno sistólico presente. Não houve associação entre as variáveis da pressão arterial de 24h e as variáveis de estresse oxidativo. Conclusão: Indicadores antropométricos alterados se associam com a PAS da vigília descontrolada, o que pode ser um indicativo de sobrecarga cardiovascular. A queda da pressão arterial no período do sono está associada com a expressão de eHSP72, indicativo de que esta proteína pode estar envolvida como protetora na modulação da função vascular.

Métodos. Foram selecionados 72 pacientes recém-diagnosticados com SMet (ATP III), alocados em 3 grupos conforme a classificação da PA (segundo as Diretrizes 2013 ESH/ESC):, SMet hipertensos (HT, n=16, 51±9 anos, 33±4 kg/m2), SMet pré-hipertensos (PHT, n=29, 47±10 anos, 31±3 kg/m2) e SMet normotensos (NT, n=27, 46±7 anos, 32±4 kg/m2). Um grupo controle (C, n=19, 48±2 anos, 25±2 kg/m2) pareado por gênero e idade foi envolvido no estudo. Foram avaliados: a ANSM (microneurografia); a SBR (análise das flutuações espontâneas da PA sistólica e FC) para aumentos (SBR+) e diminuições da PA (SBR-); medidas auscultatórias da PA no pré-teste, pico, 1°, 2° e 4° min de recuperação (TECP); e PAS e PAD de 24 horas, vigília, sono e despertar (MAPA de 24h). O estudo foi dividido em duas partes: Parte 1 - todos os grupos com SMet (HT, PHT e NT) e C foram estudados; e Parte 2 - somente o grupo SMet NT foi comparado ao C. Resultados - Parte 1. Os grupos SMet (HT, PHT e NT) foram semelhantes entre si e apresentaram prejuízo quando comparado ao grupo C nas características físicas, na capacidade física e nos fatores de risco da SMet. Na PAS pico atingida no TECP, o grupo SMet HT apresentou valores superiores quando comparado com SMet PHT, NT, e C (217±23 vs. 202±22; 195±17; 177±24 mmHg; respectivamente; P=0,03). Apresentaram resposta da PAS exagerada (PAS >190 mmHg para mulheres e > 210 mmHg para homens) 81% no grupo HT, 55% no PHT, 37% no NT e 21% no C.

A ANSM foi maior nos grupos SMet HT, PHT e NT quando comparados ao C (33±7; 30±7; 29±6; vs. 18±1 disparos/min, respectivamente, P < 0,001). Somente o grupo SMet HT apresentou menor SBR+ quando comparado ao grupo C (6±3; 8±3; 9±3; vs. 11±5 mmHg/ms; P=0,002). Os grupos SMet HT e PHT apresentaram menor SBR-, enquanto SMet NT foi semelhante ao C (7±2; 9±4; 10±3; vs. 12±5 mmHg/ms; P < 0,05). Houve correlação entre a SBR- e a PAS pico (r=-0,32, P=0,04) com todos os sujeitos dos grupos da SMet e C. Resultados Parte 2. Exceto na PAS no 4º min de recuperação, o grupo SMet NT apresentou maior PAS e PAD comparado ao C em todos os momentos do TECP. O comportamento da PAS e PAD pela área sob a curva (ASC) total foi maior no SMet NT comparado ao C. Na MAPA de 24h, SMet NT apresentou menor PAD no sono que C. Além disso, SMet NT apresentou menor SBR+ e SBR- e maior ANSM comparado ao C. Interessantemente, no subgrupo de pacientes com SMet NT (n=10, 37%) que apresentou PAS pico exagerada a SBR- se correlacionou fortemente com a PAS pico (r=-0,70, P=0,02) e com a PAS no 1º min de recuperação (r=-0,73, P=0,04). Conclusão: Pacientes com SMet, mesmo normotensos, já apresentam resposta exacerbada da PAS e da PAD durante o TECP, dos quais 40% com PAS pico exagerada. A disfunção autonômica pode explicar, pelo menos em parte, esta reposta exacerbada / Introduction. The progression of the metabolic syndrome (MetS) to cardiovascular disease is complex, multifactorial and may be associated in part with sympathetic hyperactivation and reduced baroreflex sensitivity (BRS), mechanisms strongly associated with arterial hypertension (AH). Additionally, in hypertension, the BP response during the maximal cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) and 24h BP (ABPM) is impaired. It is not known whether patients with MetS but without hypertension present those damages. Hypotheses. Patients with MetS with normal clinical BP level present: (1) Increased response of peak BP and recovery BP in response to maximal exercise; (2) Impaired 24 hour BP. In addition, we analyzed if those changes are associated with muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) and BRS. Methods. We selected 72 newly diagnosed patients with MetS (ATP III), subdivided in 3 groups according to the BP classification (according to the ESH/ESC Guidelines): hypertensive MetS (HT, n=16, 51±9 years, 33±4 kg/m2), pre-hypertensive MetS (PHT, n=29, 47± 10 years, 31±3 kg/m2) and normotensive MetS (NT, n= 27, 46±7 years, 32±4 kg/m2). A control group (C, n=19, 48±2 years, 25±2 kg/m2) paired by gender and age was involved in the study. The following were evaluated: the MSNA (microneurography); BRS (analysis of spontaneous fluctuations of systolic BP and HR) for increases to BP (SBR+) and for decreases to BP (SBR-); BP auscultatory measurements in the pre-test, peak, 1st, 2nd and 4th min of recovery (CPET); and SBP and DBP of 24 hours, wakefulness, sleep and awakening (24-hour ABPM). The study was divided into two parts: Part 1. All groups with MetS (HT, PHT and NT) were studied; and C group. Part 2. Only the NT MetS group was compared to the C. Results Part 1. The MetS groups (HT, PHT and NT) were similar and were impaired compared to group C in physical characteristics, physical capacity and risk factors of MetS. In the peak SBP reached at CPET, HT MetS group presented higher values when compared to PHT and NT MetS groups and C (217±23 vs. 202±22, 195±17, 177±-24 mmHg, respectively, P=0.03). There was an exaggerated SBP response (SBP > 190 mmHg for women and > 210 mmHg for men) in 81% of the HT group, 55% of the PHT, 37% of the NT and 21% of the C group. In the ABPM, HT MetS had a higher 24-hour BP than the other 3 groups (P < 0.001). The MSNA was higher in HT, PHT and NT MetS groups when compared to C (33±7, 30±7, 29±6, vs. 18±1 burst/min, respectively, P < 0.001). Only the HT MetS group showed lower SBR+ compared to C (6±3, 8±3, 9±3, vs. 11±5 mmHg/ms, P=0.002). The HT and PHT MetS groups presented lower SBR-, while NT MetS was similar to C (7±2; 9 ±4; 10±3, vs. 12±5 mmHg/ms; P < 0.05). There was a correlation between SBR- and peak SBP (r= -0.32, P=0.04) with all subjects from the MetS and C groups. Results Part 2. Except for SBP in the 4th min of recovery, NT MetS presented higher SBP and DBP compared to C at all moments of the CPET. The SBP and DBP responses by AUC analysis were higher in NT MetS compared to C. In 24h ABPM, NT MetS presented lower DBP in the sleep than in C. In addition, NT MetS presented decreased SBR+ and SBR- and increased MSNA compared with C. Interestingly, in the NT MetS subgroup of patients (n=10, 37%) who showed an exaggerated peak SBP, showed a negative correlation between BRS- and peak SBP (r=-.70; P=0.01) and SBP at 1st minute of recovery (r=.73; P=0.04). Conclusion. Patients with MetS, even normotensive, already present an exacerbated SBP and DBP response during CPET, of which 40% with exaggerated peak SBP. Autonomic dysfunction may explain, at least in part, this exacerbated response
