Physiology, genetics, and cardiovascular disease: focus on African Americans.

Journal of clinical hypertension (Greenwich, Conn.) - 1 Apr 2004

Gibbons Gary H

Abstract excerpt

The disproportionate impact of cardiovascular disease in African Americans is well recognized. Not only do risk factors such as obesity occur at a higher rate in the African-American community, but this population experiences a greater mortality from cardiovascular disease than their white counterparts. The cardiovascular system is regulated in part by two opposing mediators linking the risk factors of obesity,...
