Relationships between baroreflex sensitivity (BRS) and arterial distensibility are evaluated by continuous measurement of blood pressure (Finapres) and carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity measurement (PWV); 73 subjects are recruited on WHO criteria (age: 48 +/- 13). An ambulatory measurement of BP is also performed to evaluate the mean BP 24 level. The BRS is evaluated at rest during 20 min of acquisition data in a lying position, using a dedicated software [(automatic detection by of BP sequences were 3 or more systolic BP and RR interval increased of 1 mmHg for SBP and 4 ms for RR (PS+/RR+) or decreased (PS-/RR-)]. The BRS is the slope of the regression line between SBP and RR interval of each sequences (if correlation coefficient > 0.95). Results: resting BP: SBP/DBP = 170 +/- 12 mmHg. HR 72 +/- 15 batt/min, PWV = 10.8 +/- 3.2 m/s. Mean BRS is 8.2 +/- 3.8 for PS+/RR+ and 8.7 +/- 3.8 ms/mmHg PS-/RR-. The coefficient of correlation (Pearson) between PWV and BRS is -0.59* for PS+/RR+ and -0.41* for PS-/RR- (*: p < 0.01). In multivariate analyses, these relations were statistically independent of age and BP for the sequences PS+/RR+ but not for the sequences PS-/RR- suggesting a predominant vagal alteration in hypertensive subjects associated with the alteration of carotido-femoral pulse wave velocity.
