Age-Adjusted Plasma Norepinephrine Levels Are Similar in Normotensive and Hypertensive Subjects
Abstract
The sympathetic nervous system has been implicated in the pathogenesis of hypertension because of its role in controlling blood pressure and because many drugs that have been found useful in the treatment of essential hypertension either block noradrenergic neuronal function or depress sympathetic outflow from the central nervous system, but there is no conclusive evidence for a role of the sympathetic nervous system in the development or maintenance of hypertension.1 Accurate measurement of plasma catecholamines has been facilitated by the introduction of radioenzymatic methods,2 , 3 and there are a number of reports of increased levels of circulating catecholamines in hypertensive patients. . . .

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
