Purpose: The underlying causes of primary hypertension are not fully understood. Evidence
on the relation of plasma calcium concentration with blood pressure (BP) is inconsistent and …

J Clin Hypertens (Greenwich). 2011; 13: 716–721.© 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Serum
calcium levels have been shown to be associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD); …

The effects of intravenous calcium infusion on blood pressure (BP) and total peripheral
vascular resistance (TPR) were investigated in seven normotensives at rates of 3.75, 7.5 …

Abstract Sub-Saharan Africans face an increasing burden of hypertension. Although
controversial, recent experimental evidence strongly suggests that serum calcium …

The link between calcium metabolism and hypertension, initially developed in the early
1980s, was based on clinical observations documenting an association between …

Purpose Calcium, which is one the most abundant mineral elements in the body, has been
suggested to be involved in blood pressure regulation. We aimed to assess the association …

Recent epidemiological data indicate that the concentration of circulating calcium is related
to cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality. We determined whether serum calcium level is …

Background: Hypertension is a significant risk factor of cardiovascular diseases, posing a
serious threat to global health. Calcium plays an important role in regulating body …

Background: Disturbance in calcium metabolism has been suggested in the pathogenesis of
hypertension, however, membrane calcium content in humans has not been studied in detail …

Total serum calcium levels were measured in 12 865 men and 14 293 women, between the
ages of 25 and 97 years, in the Tromsø Study during 1994 and 1995. With the use of a sex …
