Blood Pressure
Eligibility:
All Genders
30-60 years
Phase:
NA
Brief Summary
To determine if 24-hr ambulatory blood pressure monitoring effects endothelial function, we will measure flow-mediated dilation before and after the blood pressure monitoring (ischemia conditioning).
Detailed Description
Reestablishing blood flow (reperfusion) to organs that had their blood supply restricted (ischemia) can cause damage to the vasculature via injury and tissue death resulting in endothelial dysfunction...
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion
- Adults aged between 30 to 60 years old.
