Young patients with borderline hypertension exhibited decreased maximal arterial vasodilator capacity and venous distensibility in the forearm compared to age-matched normotensive men.
Do young men with borderline hypertension have decreased arterial vasodilator capacity and venous distensibility compared to normotensive men?
Young men with borderline hypertension exhibit decreased arterial vasodilator capacity and venous distensibility, suggesting early structural vascular abnormalities.
Absolute Event Rate: 0% vs 0%
Maximal vasodilator capacity of arteries as well as venous distensibility in the forearm were decreased in young patients with borderline hypertension as compared to those in age-matched normotensive men. These results are consistent with the consideration that there is structural vascular abnormality in arteries and veins in young patients with borderline hypertension.
