Effects of gender on sympathovagal imbalance, prehypertension status, and cardiovascular risks in first-degree relatives of type 2 diabetics.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Schlager inbred hypertensive mice (BPH/2J) have been suggested to have high blood pressure (BP) due to an overactive sympathetic nervous system (SNS). The brain nuclei associated with the hypertension are also those involved in the integration of the cardiovascular responses to stress. Therefore, in the pres...
