Why the study?
Does pharmacological manipulation of blood flow or systemic pressure alter minimal forearm vascular resistance after ischemia in hypertensive patients?
Does pharmacological manipulation of blood flow or systemic pressure alter minimal forearm vascular resistance after ischemia in hypertensive patients?
The measurement of minimal forearm vascular resistance after ischemia is a stable functional correlate of the morphological status of systemic arterioles in hypertension, independent of acute flow or pressure changes.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Minimal postischemic forearm vascular resistance remains stable despite acute flow or pressure shifts; supports its validity as a morphological correlate but requires prospective validation.
Pedrinelli et al. (1990) studied this question.
