The Role of Sympathetic Nervous System Activation on Hypertension in Type 2 DiabetesGonca TamerSSK Kartal Hospital Internal Medicine Clinic, IstanbulThere are some recent studies on sympathetic nervous system activation to be one of the reasons of hypertension in type 2 diabetes. In this study, the presence of sympathetic nervous system activation in patients with hypertension and type 2 diabetes, and also in patients with noncomplicated diabetes, enrolled into the outpatient diabetes clinic of SSK Kartal Hospital, has been researched by using cardiovascular reflex tests and 24-hours urinary norepinefrin levels. Comparing with type 2 diabetes without hypertension; parasympathetic neuropathy was found significantly more frequent and 24-hours urinary norepinefrin levels were significantly higher in type 2 diabetes with hypertension.
