Abstract
Baroreflex sensitivity is impaired in patients with systemic hypertension. The persistence of abnormal baroreflex sensitivity despite adequate blood pressure control may be one of the reasons why the effect of antihypertensive therapy on coronary artery disease mortality has been less than expected on the basis of the achieved blood pressure levels.
