Abstract
High blood pressure (BP) is the strongest modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Overweight/obesity is a major risk factor of high BP. Multiple sex differences exist in mechanistic pathways that increase BP in overweight/obesity. They may result in a sex-specific pattern of BP hemodynamics—males and females may vary in the relative contributions of stroke volume, total peripheral resistance (TPR), and heart rate to higher BP. We...
