Comparison of carotid wall thickness with age and baroreflex sensitivity in normotensive subjects and hypertensive patients
Result description
Heart-rate baroreflex sensitivity expressed in ms/mmHg(BRS) or in Hz/mmHg (BRSf)decreases with age. The hypothesis that the age-dependent decrease of BRS and BRSf are caused by age-dependent increase of carotid wall thickness was investigated in the study presented. Our results: the positive correlation between age and intima-media thicknes of carotid wall and negative correlation between age and BRS and BRSf are in agreement with our hypothesis.

Srovnání tloušťky stěny karotických tepen s věkem a citlivostí baroreflexu u normotenzních osob a hypertoniků
Czech description
Testovali jsme hypotézu, že tloušťka stěny karotických tepen v závislosti na věku může souviset se s věkem se snižující citlivostí baroreflexu. Nalezená pozitivní korelace mezi věkem a tloušťkou stěny karotid a negativní korelace mezi věkem a BRS a BRSfprokazují správnost naší hypotézy.
