Association between cardiorespiratory fitness and pediatric primary hypertension: a case–control study in China
Higher CRF is independently associated with reduced primary hypertension risk in children and adolescents, highlighting its role as a modifiable protective factor, particularly among overweight/obese youth. These findings support CRF-enhancing interventions as a preventive strategy against pediatric hypertension.
