highly significantP < .001
Correlation analysis revealed a highly significant inverse association between PAT and BP changes for all time periods combined (SBP: r = −0.45, P < .001; DBP: r = −0.25, P = .003; N = 138; for risers and decliners only: SBP: r = −0.48, P < .001; DBP: r = −0.28, P = .004; N = 99/106).
