Population

203 men aged 20 to 55 years with essential hypertension

Intervention

Psychophysiological assessment with various emotional stressors (mental arithmetic, stressful computer game)

Outcome

Cardiovascular response (systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate) to emotional stressors and blood pressure changes at 1-year follow-upsurrogate

Greater diastolic blood pressure reactivity to emotional stress and longer recovery may predict future blood pressure increases in men with essential hypertension.
