Association between different lipid-lowering treatment strategies and blood pressure control in the Brisighella Heart Study.

TL;DR: The use of lipid-lowering measures could significantly improve BP control in subjects with both hypercholesterolemia and hypertension, and the reduction in BP seems to be enhanced in subjects treated with statins.

Alexithymia predicts attenuated autonomic reactivity, but prolonged recovery to anger recall in young women.

TL;DR: Alexithymia was related to slower diastolic blood pressure and quicker preejection period recovery implying abbreviated sympathetic arousal and possibly greater vagal modulation, and some evidence is impart for the hypoarousal model of alexithymic reactivity during reactivity, but the hyperarrousal model during recovery.
