140/90 mm Hg). Cardiac autonomic function was determined by multiple methods, including standard deviation of RR interval, the heart rate variability with standing, and respiratory variation in the heart rate. There was a significant, graded difference in all CAF indexes along the spectrum of hypertension. This study provides evidence that CAF plays a role in pre-hypertension and that altered autonomic function is already present in subjects with FHH. See pages 1896 and
