Molecular basis of human hypertension: Role of angiotensinogen
Xavier Jeunemaitre,Florent Soubrier,Yuri Kotelevtsev,Richard P. Lifton,Richard P. Lifton,Christopher S. Williams,Anne Charru,Steven C. Hunt,Paul N. Hopkins,Roger R. Williams,Jean Marc Lalouel,Pierre Corvol +11 more
TL;DR: Evidence of genetic linkage between the angiotensinogen gene (AGT) and hypertension is obtained, association of AGT molecular variants with the disease is demonstrated, and significant differences in plasma concentrations of angiotENSinogen among hypertensive subjects with different AGT genotypes are found.

TL;DR: Among severely obese patients, compared with nonsurgical control patients, the use of RYGB surgery was associated with higher rates of diabetes remission and lower risk of cardiovascular and other health outcomes over 6 years.
Journal ArticleDOI
