Why the study?
Does sympathetic nervous system activity correlate with orthostatic and postprandial blood pressure reduction in patients with essential hypertension?
Does sympathetic nervous system activity correlate with orthostatic and postprandial blood pressure reduction in patients with essential hypertension?
In patients with essential hypertension, orthostatic and postprandial blood pressure reductions are associated with changes in sympathetic nervous system activity as measured by plasma norepinephrine.

Sympathetic activity associates with orthostatic and postprandial BP shifts in hypertension; hypothesis-generating and does not yet support practice change.
Masuo et al. (1991) studied this question.
