Masked hypertension and cardiac remodeling in middle-aged endurance athletes

OBJECTIVES:Extensive endurance training and arterial hypertension are established risk factors for atrial fibrillation. We aimed to assess the proportion of masked hypertension in endurance athletes and the impact on cardiac remodeling, mechanics, and supraventricular tachycardias (SVT). METHODS:Mal...

Zusammenfassung:	OBJECTIVES:Extensive endurance training and arterial hypertension are established risk factors for atrial fibrillation. We aimed to assess the proportion of masked hypertension in endurance athletes and the impact on cardiac remodeling, mechanics, and supraventricular tachycardias (SVT). METHODS:Male participants of a 10-mile race were recruited and included if office blood pressure was normal (
