stimuli. In this issue of Hypertension, Ravogli et al1 provide important new data that help'to resolve this question. By using four different tests of blood pressure reac-tivity, they found that normotensive young adults with one or both parents hypertensive do not show any increased reactivity when

Objective: This study examined how cholesterol and fasting insulin levels are related to blood pressure reactivity to behavioral stressors. Methods: Subjects (N 5 116) were 20 to 52 years old, at 80 % to 150 % of ideal weight, and had an average fasting cholesterol level of 183 mg/dl. Stressor

To evaluate blood pressure reactivity in children and its changes in adolescents, the acute pressor response to a video-game stress test and the noninvasive ambulatory blood pressure monitoring were evaluated in 62 healthy children divided into three age groups. Basal blood pressure values were

). The current study extends these findings to cardiovascular reactivity. We predicted that participants who adopted a selfdistanced perspective, compared with those who adopted a selfimmersed perspective, would demonstrate smaller increases in blood pressure reactivity both when analyzing their feelings during
