Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: Hypertension phenotypes differ between Africans and Europeans, with a greater prevalence of low renin salt-sensitive hypertension and greater predisposition to adverse cardiac remodelling in Africans. To elucidate the roles of inheritance and environment in determining hypertension phenotypes in sub-Saharan Africans and white-Europeans, we compared phenotypes in white individuals in the UK (n = 132)...
