  Author(s): Chayanika Abikasilutame*
  
  This study investigates the acute effects of exercise on systemic capillary responses in hypertensive elderly individuals. Hypertension presents a significant risk factor for cardiovascular disease and understanding the vascular responses to exercise in this population is crucial for developing effective interventions. Twenty hypertensive elderly participants engaged in a single bout of moderate-intensity exercise and systemic capillary responses were assessed before and after exercise using non-invasive techniques. Results revealed dynamic changes in systemic capillary function following acute exercise, suggesting potential benefits for vascular health in hypertensive elderly individuals... Read More»
