Abstract
Vagal inhibition plays an important role in addition to sympathetic activation in alteration of SVI in the genesis of prehypertension, especially in males. Gender and prehypertension status play important role in the causation of SVI. It was suggested that vagal tone of prehypertensives should be maintained at a higher level to prevent their further rise in blood pressure.
