Correction
After publication of this work [1], we noted that Figure Two Y axis is labeled incorrectly as CA IMT (mm). The correct label is ''CA Diameter (cm)'' (see figure 1).
Figure two – Bar graphs showing the effect of mental stress on carotid artery diameter in hypertensive subjects with increasing mean blood pressure.
The following statement should also be deleted from the text: "Twenty-three of 30 (76%) healthy subjects responded with vasodilation" under subheading ''Normal Human Volunteers''.
