Description
Andreas Casselbrant and co-authors link blood pressure shifts on standing, plus resting heart rate, to lung function in middle-aged Swedes. Lung disease and heart disease often travel together, and signs of a strained automatic control system tie to heart risk. Whether those signs also tie to weaker lungs in the general public was less known.
Data came from a national heart and lung imaging study, with nearly fifty-nine hundred people. A bigger rise in one pressure arm on standing, a fall in the other, and a faster resting heart all tied to smaller lung volumes. Most links held after age, sex, and height were weighed. Faster hearts also tied to poorer gas transfer in the lungs.
