title: Concerning the independence of the basis of hypertension due to ACTH or renovascular constriction.
abstract: Administration of ACTH to four sheep with chronic renovascular hypertension resulted in an increase in blood pressure which was at least as high as that described in normotensive sheep and could be completely accounted for by an increase in cardiac output.
