متن کاملA Vascular Abnormality in Hypertension
T HE increased peripheral resistance associated with hypertension has been demonstrated for the circulation as a whole by measurements of blood pressure and cardiac output.l 2 The site of this resistance has not been precisely identified but it is believed to reside in the smallest arteries and arterioles.3'4 Since the activity of the smooth muscle in these vessels is readily affected by humora...

A complete ra...
