Abstract:
Objective:To systematically evaluate the effect of exercise on blood pressure of middle-aged and elderly Asian populations with prehypertension and hypertension, and to provide theoretical basis for formulating accurate exercise prescriptions.Methods:Randomized controlled trials on the effect of exercise on blood pressure in middle-aged and elderly patients with prehypertension and hypertension were collected by PubMed, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CNKI and Wanfang Database.The quality of the included studies was evaluated by the Cochrane risk bias assessment tool, and the meta-analysis was performed with Stata 15.0 software.Results:A total of 23 articles and 2 095 subjects were included.Meta analysis showed that compared with the control group, aerobic exercise(WMD=-9.94, 95% CI=-12.59--7.29, P<0.001), resistance exercise(WMD=-11.15, 95% CI=-18.36--3.95, P=0.002) and aerobic combined resistance exercise(WMD=-6.09, 95% CI=-8.87--3.31, P=0.005) could reduce the systolic blood pressure level.Aerobic exercise(WMD=-6.46, 95% CI=-8.20--4.72, P<0.001) and resistance exercise(WMD=-4.38, 95% CI=-8.07--0.69, P=0.02) could reduce the level of diastolic blood pressure, while aerobic combined resistance exercise(WMD=-4.88, 95% CI=-12.87-3.11, P=0.232)had no significant effect on diastolic blood pressure.The results of subgroup analysis indicated that the differences of age, baseline blood pressure, exercise intensity, exercise time, exercise frequency, and motion cycle were the main sources of heterogeneity.The funnel plot and Egger's test indicated that there was no publication bias in this Meta-analysis. Conclusion:Aerobic exercise and resistance exercise both have positive effects on reducing blood pressure of middle-aged and elderly Asian populations with prehypertension and hypertension.
