First seen Feb 14, 2026 · Last updated Apr 25, 2026 · Updated 5 times
Summary
This study looks at how a 2-hour period of uninterrupted sitting affects blood pressure over the next 24 hours in healthy adults aged 18-65. Researchers will measure artery function and blood pressure before, during, and after sitting, and test whether blocking certain artery-relaxing chemicals changes these effects. The goal is to understand the hidden risks of prolonged sitting.
