The Effects of AI-Guided Exercise and a Smart Ring on Arterial Stiffness: Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial
Abstract Background Cardiovascular disease (CVD) prevention is limited by the major challenge of low long-term adherence to effective lifestyle regimens. Arterial stiffness (measured by carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity [cfPWV]) and maximal cardiorespiratory fitness (measured by VO2max) are modifiable risk factors fo...
