Responses in heart rate and heart rate variability to the stressors for hypertensive patients and healthy controls (mean ± SD). Timepoint 1: rest; timepoint 2: Attachment Interview (Adult Attachment Projective Picture System); timepoint 3: Separation Recall; timepoint 4: recovery. (A) Heart Rate. (B) Root mean square of successive differences (RMSSD). (C) Standard deviation of normal to normal intervals (SDNN). Asterisks indicate significant group*time differences related to healthy controls at reference timepoint 1 (**p < 0.01; ***p < 0.001).
