[Heart rate variability in offspring of hypertensive parents].

Unlabelled: The aim of the study was the assessment of power spectrum of heart rate variability in young people with family history of hypertension. The study included healthy subjects in their second or third decade of their life. According to the family history of hypertension, the following groups were specified: group A--both parents hypertensive (n = 30, age = 24.

[Heart rate variability in patients with hypertension and left ventricular hypertrophy].

The aim of the study was to analyse the heart rate variability (HRV) in patients with moderate essential hypertension complicated by left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). Forty-two patients with untreated essential hypertension participated in the study group and 45 normotensives (16M, 29F, age 49.8 +/- 5.
