Popis: 1. The haemodynamic and plasma volume changes associated with obesity and high blood pressure were studied in nine male rats with electrolytic ventromedial hypothalamic lesions and their paired sham-operated controls. Body weight and arterial pressure were greater in the rats with ventromedial hypothalamic lesions (565 ± 16 vs 462 ± 14 g, P 2. The haemodynamic characteristics of rats in which obesity and mild hypertension have been induced by electrolytic ventromedial hypothalamic lesion are similar to mild obesity essential hypertension in men.
