Abstract excerpt
The study was undertaken to determine whether polymorphic variants of the alpha-adducin gene are associated with isolated systolic hypertension (ISH) in elderly Australian Caucasians. Participants were classified with ISH (n = 87, systolic blood pressure (SBP) > or =160 mm Hg and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) < or =90 mm Hg) or normotension (n = 124, SBP <140 mm Hg and DBP <90 mm Hg with no family history of...
