Association between ambient temperature and blood pressure and blood pressure regulators: 1831 hypertensive patients followed up for three years.

Several studies have suggested an association between ambient air temperature and blood pressure. However, this has not been reliably confirmed by longitudinal studies. Also, whether the reaction to temperature stimulation is modified by other factors such as antihypertensive medication is rarely in...
