Abstract:Background
Blood pressure (BP) is regulated by plasma metabolites from different neurohumoral and cardiometabolic systems. Since there are established differences in hypertension pathogenesis and treatment response between ethnicities, we hypothesized that plasma metabolites may be differently associated with BP across ethnic groups.
Purpose
To investigate associations between plasma metabolite profiles and BP in a multi-ethn… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
