Vascular contractile reactivity in hypotension due to reduced renal reabsorption of Na+ and restricted dietary Na.

Abstract excerpt

Reduced renal Na+ reabsorption along with restricted dietary Na+ depletes intravascular plasma volume which can then result in hypotension. Whether hypotension occurs and the magnitude of hypotension depends in part on compensatory angiotensin II-mediated increased vascular resistance. We investigated whether the ability of vascular resistance to mitigate the hypotension was compromised by decreased contractile...
