A group of 29 international experts says that simultaneous screening for hypertension and heart arrhythmia could prevent thousands of strokes.
A new study found that prolonged standing at work had a negative impact on the research participants’ 24-hour blood pressure. In contrast, spending more time sitting at work was associated with better blood pressure. The study suggests that activity behaviour during working hours may be more relevant to 24-hour blood pressure than recreational physical activity.
