BP recorded by telemetry in control normotensive and MetS hypertensive groups.
(a) Representative waveforms of BP measured by telemetry in control normotensive (left panel) and MetS hypertensive (right panel) monkeys. (b,c) 24-h averaged SBP and DBP (b) and HR (c) of control normotensive (n = 5) and MetS hypertensive groups (n = 7). (d) Averaged SBP, DBP, MBP, PP and HR during the 8 days in panels B and C in control normotensive (n = 5) and MetS hypertensive (n = 7) monkeys (*P < 0.05, **P < 0.01 vs control normotension). (e) Comparison of SBP and DBP recorded by telemetry (09:00–12:00) and cuff (during screening) in control normotensive (n = 5) and MetS hypertensive (n = 7) monkeys. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM. SBP, systolic blood pressure; DBP, diastolic blood pressure; MBP, mean blood pressure; PP, pulse pressure; HR, heart rate; MetS, metabolic syndrome.
