Effects of the Renin-Angiotensin System Genes and Salt Sensitivity Genes on Blood Pressure and Atherosclerosis in the Total Population and Patients With Type 2 Diabetes
27 Jun 2007
Abstract excerpt
Most studies on the genetic determinants of blood pressure and vascular complications of type 2 diabetes have focused on the effects of single genes. These studies often have yielded conflicting results. Therefore, we examined the combined effects of three renin-angiotensin system (RAS) genes and three salt sensitivity genes in relation to blood pressure and atherosclerosis in the total population and type 2...
