Abstract excerpt
The response of blood pressure to thiazide diuretics (TZDs) differs among individuals. The prediction of the antihypertensive effect of TZDs is important for realizing individualized therapy in the management of hypertension. The aim of this study was to identify the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) susceptible to the antihypertensive effect of TZDs, particularly focusing on genes related to...
