increase atherosclerotic risk. We examined this hypothesis using cross-sectional data from …

Background—Hemodynamic reactions to mental stress may contribute to atherosclerosis.
We previously observed cross-sectional relationships between blood pressure reactions to a …

Background Exaggerated cardiovascular and neuroendocrine responses to mental stress
may enhance cardiovascular disease risk, Coronary heart disease and hypertension …

Background Stress experienced during childhood or adulthood has been associated with
cardiovascular disease (CVD), but it is not clear whether associations are already prevalent …

Background and Purpose—Exaggerated blood pressure reactivity to stress is associated
with atherosclerosis and hypertension, which are known stroke risk factors, but its relation to …

Exaggerated cardiovascular reactions to acute psychological stress may be involved in the
etiology of cardiovascular pathology. The present analysis examined the association …

Background We examined the relation between cardiovascular reactivity (the response of
the cardiovascular system to psychological stress) and the severity and progression of …

An increasing number of studies has tested whether greater cardiovascular responses to
acute mental stress predict future cardiovascular disease, but results have been variable …

Objective—Delayed blood pressure (BP) recovery after psychological stress is associated
with low socioeconomic status (SES) and prospectively with increases in clinic BP. We …
