Figure 1 (A) Systolic and (B) diastolic blood pressure, (C) mean arterial pressure, and (D) heart rate measured by the tail-cuff method in nine-week-old male spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and normotensive Brown Norway (BN) rats exposed to nicotine and saline during intrauterine development. The within-strain effect of nicotine exposure was evaluated by the two-sided t test. Kidney International , DOI: ( /j x) Copyright © 2003 International Society of Nephrology Terms and Conditions
