Sleep Restriction and Blood Pressure Study

This study is looking at how getting less sleep affects your blood pressure. Researchers will ask you to shorten your sleep to four hours. They will measure your blood pressure at the beginning of the study and again during a stress test to see if there are any changes. You might be able to join if you are a healthy adult between 18 and 45 years old, have a normal body mass index (BMI) or obesity, and usually sleep 7-9 hours a night. You also can't be pregnant, breastfeeding, or use nicotine. The study aims to enroll 45 participants.
