Overactivation of muscle mechanoreflex in human hypertension

Our previous study in patients with mild essential hypertension demonstrated that moderate level rhythmic handgrip (RHG) at 30% maximal voluntary contraction (MVC), which typically had no effect on sympathetic nerve activity (SNA) in healthy normotensive subjects, evoked asympathoexcitatory response in hypertensive subjects. This finding indirectly suggested that mechanoreflex function was enhanced in hypertension. However, mechanoreflex function has not been directly assessed in hypertensive patients.
