The heritability of hypertension (HTN) is widely recognized and as a result, extensive studies
ranging from genetic linkage analyses to genome-wide association studies are actively …

Background: Although potential links between malaria parasitaemia and hypertension have
been hypothesized, there is paucity of epidemiologic evidence on this link. We investigated …

Objective: As in adults, hypertension is also an important risk factor for cardiovascular
disease in children. We aimed to evaluate the effect of sleep duration on blood pressure in …

Genetic variations in the AGT gene play a significant role in controlling the plasma
concentration of angiotensinogen (precursor protein of bioactive octapeptide angiotensin II) …

Артериальная гипертония относится к мультифакториальной патологии. В ее развитие
вносят вклад как факторы внешней среды, так и генетические факторы риска. Одним …

This study aims to analyze the behaviour of cardiac autonomic modulation in adolescents

Background. Kawasaki disease (KD) is an acute vasculitis disease that commonly causes
acquired heart disease in children. Coronary artery aneurysm (CAA) is a major complication …

Abstract Angiotensin II (Ang II: a truncated octapeptide of angiotensinogen, AGT) and 11-β-
hydroxylase influence regulation of blood pressure. Dysregulation of Ang II and 11-β …
