Yes. This is a game changer. Beyond being able to replace AVS, it allows one to โ€œseeโ€ the underlying pathological contributors to a large proportion of โ€œidiopathicโ€ hypertension. This is another piece of evidence that should make clinicians rethink the pathogenesis and treatment of hypertension

Idea for a Christmas BMJ paper: submit loads of Christmas BMJ papers, then do a survival analysis of time to rejection. Then submit the survival analysis as a Christmas BMJ paper the following year
