Arterial Pressure, Left Ventricular Mass, and Aldosterone in Essential Hypertension

TL;DR: Results are consistent with the hypothesis that aldosterone contributes to elevated arterial pressure in obese black American and obese white French Canadian patients with essential hypertension and to the attenuated nocturnal decline of blood pressure and left ventricular hypertrophy in obese, hypertensive black Americans.
Journal ArticleDOI

Depressive symptoms and incidence of mild cognitive impairment and probable dementia in elderly women: the Women's Health Initiative Memory Study.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined whether significant depressive symptoms in postmenopausal women increase the risk of subsequent mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and dementia, and concluded that women without depression who endorsed a remote history of depression had a higher risk of developing dementia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic determinants of hypertension: identification of candidate phenotypes.

TL;DR: Evidence for the heritability of hypertension-related phenotypes in hypertensive, hyperlipidemic black sib pairs is described to facilitate the identification of specific genetic determinants of hypertension in blacks withhyperlipidemia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hyperaldosteronism and Hypertension: Ethnic Differences

TL;DR: Correlations of blood pressure with aldosterone were more consistent and more striking in blacks than in French Canadians, and these observations are consistent with the hypothesis that ald testosterone-induced volume expansion is an important contributor to hypertension, especially in blacks.
Journal ArticleDOI
