Psychosom Med 60:521-7. 1998..3 mg/kg, equivalent to 2 to 3 cups of coffee), alone and combined with behavioral stress, in men at high risk versus low risk for hypertension. A randomized, double-blind, caffeine-placebo crossover design was used...- Blood pressure but not parental history for hypertension predicts pain perception in womenM AL'ABSI

Pain 88:61-8. 2000..Controlling for potential confounding variables did not alter these relationships. These findings suggest that in women, phenotype systolic BP may be a better predictor of hypoalgesia than parental history of hypertension... - Hypertension risk factors and cardiovascular reactivity to mental stress in young menM AL'ABSI
