Abstract
The excretion of a standard test dose of H3NE was greater in patients with essential hypertension than in normal subjects. This
abnormality in catecholamine metabolism was not related to renal function but appeared
to reflect a defect in internal handling of H3NE by the patient with essential hypertension. The test procedure may be of diagnostic
usefulness for the detection of essential hypertension.
