Author(s): Asma Parveen* and Sanjiv Kumar
Background: Stress is one of the direct or indirect causes of hypertension. Chronic stress and particularly the nonadaptive response to stress are more likely causes of sustained elevation of blood pressure. Hypertension accelerates arteriosclerotic changes in the brain predisposing to atheroma formation in large diameter blood vessels and arteriosclerosis and arteriolar tortuosity of small vessels of the cerebral vasculature. These vascular changes result in a reduction of luminal diameter, increased resistance to flow, and a decline in perfusion. Aim: The current study aimed to evaluate the effect of the treadmill exercises on stress, cognition, and quality of life in stage -1 hypertensive patients. Methods: The study included 32 subjects. Samples are being recruited from a tertiary care hospital, Belagavi, aged be.. Read More»
