Cerebrovascular mental stress reactivity is impaired in hypertension

BACKGROUND: Brachial artery reactivity in response to shear stress is altered in subjects with hypertension. Since endothelial dysfunction is generalized, we hypothesized that carotid artery (CA) reactivity would also be altered in hypertension. PURPOSE: To compare (CA endothelium-dependent vasodila...
