Atenolol is not that cardioselective. It is the betablocker named "cardioselective" with the least beta1-selectivity. Thus atenolol has some positive qualities against stress (adrenaline) response (mostly measured by isoprenaline infusion). But much less than some other betablockers. For example nadolol, oxprenolol (slow-trasicor), pindolol
