Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Plasma leptin levels and plasma insulin levels have been found to be elevated in patients with essential hypertension (EH) and have been suggested to be components of the metabolic syndrome. Increased heart rate (HR) may predict the development of EH in normal or borderline-hypertensive individuals. The aim of our study was to test the hypothesis that elevated plasma leptin and insulin levels as well...
