Abstract
Circadian rhythms regulate various cardiovascular functions, including heart rate and blood pressure.
- Circadian rhythms are linked to physiological, biochemical, and behavioral processes in the body.
- Fluctuations in circadian rhythms influence heart rate, blood pressure, cardiac contractility, and metabolism.
- Modern lifestyles may disrupt internal circadian physiology, potentially increasing the risk of cardiovascular disease.
- Understanding the mechanisms of circadian dysregulation is an evolving area of research.
- Chronotherapy may enhance existing treatments for cardiovascular disease and aid in developing new therapies.
