Age-dependent sympathetic neural responses to ß1 selective beta-blockade in untreated hypertension-related tachycardia

Age-dependent sympathetic neural responses to ß1 selective beta-blockade in untreated hypertension-related tachycardia

Background: Elevated heart rate (HR) increases cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in hypertension. The impact of beta-blockers on patient prognosis in hypertension is controversial. This study examined the age-related effects of betaxolol on HR, muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA), blood pr...
