Participant milestones

Participant milestones
Measure
All Participants
All Participants visited the laboratory on 3 occasions for a 4-5 hour observation of blood pressure following administration of a non-selective inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase (L-NAME) an alpha-agonist (midodrine) or placebo. The interventions were administered in random order on separate laboratory visits.
