Cardiovascular haemodynamic response to repeated mental stress in normotensive subjects at genetic risk of hypertension: evidence of enhanced reactivity, blunted adaptation, and delayed recovery.

Abstract excerpt

To identify unique cardiovascular responses to stressors in a population at genetic risk of hypertension, we studied haemodynamic responses in initial reactivity to, subsequent adaptation to, and final recovery from repeated active mental stress in young, normotensive individuals stratified by hypertension parental history (PH). Two groups (n=21/group) of normotensive white males underwent stress testing. One...
