Scientists probe genetic link to Salt-Sensitive high blood pressure
NCT ID NCT01426529
Summary
This study aims to understand why some people with high blood pressure are more sensitive to salt in their diet. Researchers will observe 120 adults with mild hypertension, putting them on low-salt and high-salt diets while monitoring their heart and blood vessel function. The goal is to learn how a specific gene and salt intake together influence blood pressure regulation.
