Key result
Higher baroreflex sensitivity in normotensives correlated with daytime heart rate variability (R=0.324, p=0.018) and inversely with 24-hour mean arterial pressure (R=0.400, p=0.003).
Cross-Sectional (n=53)
Effect estimate: R=0.400 for MAP; R=0.324 for HRV
p-value: p=0.003 for MAP; p=0.018 for HRV
In healthy normotensive individuals, higher baroreflex sensitivity correlates with higher daytime heart rate variability and lower 24-hour mean arterial pressure, suggesting long-term baroreflex influences on blood pressure.

May support baroreflex assessment for BP insights in normotensives; leaves open causal links and preventive interventions.
Hesse et al. (2007) conducted a cross-sectional in Healthy, normotensive (n=53). Baroreflex sensitivity was evaluated on Correlation of baroreflex sensitivity with daytime heart rate variability and 24-hour average mean arterial pressure (R=0.400 for MAP; R=0.324 for HRV, p=p=0.003 for MAP; p=0.018 for HRV). Higher baroreflex sensitivity in normotensives correlated with daytime heart rate variability (R=0.324, p=0.018) and inversely with 24-hour mean arterial pressure (R=0.400, p=0.003).
