Peripheral hemodynamic response to handgrip exercise in subjects with hypertension during liberal or restricted salt intake. A: systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), and mean arterial pressure (MAP) response to handgrip (HG) exercise. B: change in mean arterial pressure from baseline during handgrip exercise at 15, 30, and 45% maximum voluntary contraction (MVC). C: brachial artery blood flow response to HG exercise. D: brachial artery vascular conductance response to HG exercise. Values are expressed as means ± SE for A; individual (○) and mean (bars) data with SD are presented in B, C, and D. Data includes n = 22 (14 men and 8 women). A 2 × 3 repeated-measures ANOVA (group, 2 levels: liberal vs. restricted salt) (workload, 3 levels: HG exercise: 15, 30, and 45% MVC) was performed to compare hemodynamic responses. The Holm-Sidak method was used for α-adjustment and post hoc analysis. *P < 0.05, treatment effect. †P < 0.05, vs. 15%, both liberal and restricted salt groups. ‡P < 0.05, vs. 30%, both liberal and restricted salt groups.
