Abstract
Purpose: β-Blockers (BBs) have been associated with a reduced cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF). This is possibly caused by inhibition of β2-receptors in the airways. However, there are limited data available on β-receptor selectivity and CRF. We therefore aimed to assess the association between BB use and CRF and to assess the association between β-receptor selectivity and CRF. Methods: Participants in the Maastricht Study were aged between 40...
