Cardiovascular and heart rate variability parameters in the studied groups.

	EH- ()	EH+ ()	OH- ()	OH+ ()		ES
SBP (mmHg)					0.344	0.21
HR (bpm)					0.633	0.22
Variance PI (ms^2)					0.957	0.23
SD (ms)					0.635	0.20
RMSSD (ms)					0.241	0.21
LF nu (%)					>0.999	0.29
HF nu (%)					0.441	0.30

SBP: Systolic Blood Pressure; HR: heart rate; SD: standard deviation; RMSSD: Root Mean Square of the Successive Differences; LF nu: low-frequency band, normalized data; HF nu: high-frequency band, normalized data; EH-: eutrophic offspring of normotensive parents; EH+: eutrophic offspring of hypertensive parents; OH-: overweight offspring of normotensive parents; OH+: overweight offspring of hypertensive parents. ES: effect sizes.
