diastolic

Every 20 mmHg increase in your systolic blood pressure, or 10 mmHg increase in diastolic blood pressure, doubles your mortality.

My particular BP scenario is good diastolic, high systolic but low rest heart rate (low 50s).

Hypertension was defined as systolic blood pressure ≥140 mm Hg and/or diastolic blood pressure ≥90 mm Hg, or the use of antihypertensive medication.

Sodium only has the ability to impact blood pressure by 2-3mmHg diastolic and 5mmHg systolic, so limiting its of very little value for most[2].

Volume pumped each cycle * (systolic pressure - diastolic pressure) / time.

So systolic and diastolic would each have to be their own metric.

> Additionally, long-term excessive sustained exercise may be associated with coronary artery calcification, diastolic dysfunction, and large-artery wall stiffening.

[1] Water fasting for a couple of days brings your systolic and diastolic numbers waaaaay down over 10 days.

I calmly informed them that their presence was extremely distressing to me and the sooner they went away, the sooner my diastolic would readjust.

So even if this increases heart rate and diastolic blood pressure, does it raise it more than a couple of decades of not being able to sleep would do?

I had like diastolic heart dysfunction and tons of arrhythmia showing up years ago and had a heart monitor redone this year and the rhythm is back to what it looked like before I became ill.

> Talking/listening during measurements can increase systolic and diastolic measurements by 10 mmHg.

In relevant part, "Diagnostic change—Recommendations for drug treatment have decreased from diastolic pressure of >115 mm Hg to ≥140/90 mm Hg.

It started talking about ethnicity (not something you change in an intervention) and how Hispanics had a really high 145 diastolic and Blacks had a really low 144 diastolic (makes no sense) but didn't say anything to the effect that "if your are in ethnic group A you should try intervention B".

“Atomoxetine also increases heart rate and diastolic blood pressure a little bit,” This reminds me of some studies I read about weird uses for nicotine.

Some cursory googling leads to recent research showing that they do: "According to new research, both high systolic and high diastolic blood pressure can lead to heart attack and stroke." [1] > HRV results I feel there is hype over HRV.
