Does obesity modify the Effect of Fitness on Heart Rate Indices during Exercise Stress Testing in Asymptomatic Individuals?
Our findings strongly suggest that fitness is associated with a favorable HR profile and is modified by BMI. Intervention programs should place emphasis on fitness and not only on weight loss.
The results of an invasive electrophysiological catheter protocol in combination with the observed QRS time prolongation in the surface electrocardiogram point towards a regulatory role of TASK-1 in the cardiac conduction system.
