Comment: unresolved questions concerning muscle afferents.

abstract：:Various researchers have hypothesized that the thickening of the vascular wall plays an important role in the maintenance of hypertension. Such an alteration can increase the vascular resistance by exerting two effects. A thickened vascular wall could occlude the lumen of the blood vessel and (or) cause the artery to ...
