Susana Lopes,José Mesquita-Bastos,Catarina Garcia,Susana Bertoquini,Verónica Ribau,Manuel R. Teixeira,Ilda Patrícia Ribeiro,Joana B. Melo,José Carlos Oliveira,Daniela Figueiredo,Guilherme Veiga Guimarães,Linda S. Pescatello,Jorge Polónia,Alberto Jorge Alves,Fernando Ribeiro +14 more
TL;DR: The EnRicH trial as mentioned in this paper showed that a 12-week moderate-intensity aerobic exercise training program (exercise group) or a usual care control group performed three 40-minute supervised sessions per week in addition to usual care.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clinical evaluation of an optical fiber-based probe for the assessment of central arterial pulse waves.
Cátia Leitão,Verónica Ribau,Vera Afreixo,Paulo Antunes,Paulo André,João L. Pinto,Pierre Boutouyrie,Stéphane Laurent,J. Mesquita Bastos +8 more
TL;DR: The results show that the optical fiber probe results were highly correlated with those obtained using the reference techniques in terms of the pulse waveforms, central systolic pressure (cSP), and augmentation index assessment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Physical Activity is Associated With Lower Arterial Stiffness in Patients With Resistant Hypertension.
Susana Lopes,José Mesquita-Bastos,Catarina Garcia,Cátia Leitão,Susana Bertoquini,Verónica Ribau,Pedro Carvalho,José Carlos Oliveira,João L. Viana,Daniela Figueiredo,Guilherme Veiga Guimarães,Jorge Polónia,Alberto Jorge Alves,Fernando Ribeiro +13 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated arterial stiffness using carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cf-PWV) and found that higher daily levels of light-intensity and total physical activity were associated with lower arterial stiffness.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aerobic exercise improves central blood pressure and blood pressure variability among patients with resistant hypertension: results of the EnRicH trial

Journal ArticleDOI
Arterial hypertension in pregnancy - pulse wave velocity evaluation as a prognostic marker
TL;DR: In this paper , a series of 234 pregnant women complicated by arterial hypertension submitted to 24-hour ambulatory monitoring (ABPM) was found to be associated with a worse maternal-fetal outcome.
