Withdrawal of hormonal therapy for 4 weeks decreases arterial compliance in postmenopausal women.

abstract：OBJECTIVES:Recent evidence indicates that reduced sleep duration may be associated with an increased risk of hypertension with possibly stronger effects among women than men. We therefore examined cross-sectional sex-specific associations of sleep duration with hypertension in a large population-based sample from the W...
