Background: Little is known about the potency of isometric exercise for blood pressure
control among hypertensive stroke survivors (HSS). Meanwhile, the isometric exercise …

Objective (s): To investigate the anti-hypertensive effect threshold of isometric handgrip
training and suitability for stoke prevention and recovery. Design: Randomized controlled …

Background: Prehypertension highlights a category of subjects who are at high risk of
developing hypertension. Aim: This study assessed the blood pressure attenuating effect of …

The aim of this study was to determine the effect of single-bout isometric handgrip training
on systolic (BPS) and diastolic blood pressure (BPD). Healthy normotensive (BP< 120/80 …

Background: Lifestyle choices, such as smoking, eating habits, alcohol consumption, and

Methods: Forty hypertensive individuals, aged between 36 and 65 years, conducted IRT for
8 weeks. Participants were randomized into 2 groups, working at an intensity of either 5% or …

The isometric handgrip training (IHT) has been emerging as an alternative approach for
blood pressure (BP) reduction in hypertensive patients. However, the mechanisms …

Hypertension (HTN) is a major risk factor contributing to cardiovascular disease, which is the
main cause of death world wide. Isometric handgrip strength (HGS) exercise, a non …

Objective: Isometric exercise training (IET) over 4-12 weeks is an effective antihypertensive
intervention. However, blood pressure (BP) reductions are reversible if exercise is not …

Hemodynamic responses to exercise in the acute phase after moderate to severe stroke
have remained poorly investigated. The aim of this randomized controlled study, in which 52 …
