- Abstract
The article titled "Letter: Heart Rate Responses at Rest, during Exercise and after Exercise Periods in Relation to Adiposity Levels among Young Nigerian Adults" discusses a study conducted on young Nigerian adults to investigate their cardiovascular states. The study focused on heart rate responses and the rate-pressure product (RPP) in relation to overweight and obesity. The study found that 10 years later, subsequent research conducted by the same team provided valuable information for clinicians caring for obese patients. However, the article also highlights some observations and considerations regarding the study's context, such as the choice of title, the definition of impaired heart rate recovery, and the need for standardized evaluation protocols. The article concludes by questioning the prevalence of impaired heart rate recovery and cardiovascular risk among overweight and obese young adults in Nigeria compared to other countries or ethnic groups.
