A COMPARATIVE STUDY ON HEART RATE VARIABILITY IN NORMOTENSIVE OFF SPRINGS WITH OR WITHOUT PARENTAL HISTORY OF HYPERTENSION IN DIFFERENT AGE GROUPS

Hypertension, characterized by elevated blood pressure, has long been 
recognized as a major contributor to cardiovascular diseases, including coronary artery 
disease, stroke, and heart failure. However, the emergence of research suggesting a hereditary 
link to cardiovascular risk prompts a re-evaluation of our understanding.
