Hypertension: evolving from standardized to individualized care.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:To determine the effects of capillary rarefaction on cardiovascular reactivity and microcirculatory functioning in essential hypertension. DESIGN:Hypertension is associated with abnormal cardiovascular reactivity and increased vasoconstriction. Capillary rarefaction amplifies these abnormalities, which modif...
