Hyperinsulinemia, family history of hypertension, and essential hypertension.
The aim of this study was the evaluation of the relationships among hyperinsulinemia, a family history of hypertension, and essential hypertension. Insulin and C-peptide responses to an oral glucose load were studied in 175 lean normotensives (N) and untreated hypertensives (H) with (F+) and without (F-) a family history of hypertension: 30 NF-, 30 NF+, 45 HF-, and 70 HF+. The groups were compa...
متن کاملEssential hypertension and cognitive function. The role of hyperinsulinemia.
The relation between hypertension and cognitive function is not well established. Therefore, we examined cognitive function in a random sample of 744 nondiabetic elderly inhabitants of Kuopio, East Finland. Five brief neuropsychological tests known to be sensitive to cognitive impairment due to dementia--the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), the Trail Making Test (TMT), the Buschke Selectiv...
متن کاملFamily history of essential hypertension versus obesity as risk factors for hypertension in adolescents.
Family history of hypertension and obesity are both risk factors for hypertension. Hypertension and obesity share several physiopathologic abnormalities and are frequently associated. However, not all obese people are hypertensive. Renal handling of sodium has been proposed as a physiopathogenic mechanism of essential hypertension and obesity. This study was conducted in obese adolescents to ev...
متن کاملHyperinsulinemia, intracellular calcium, and membrane function in essential hypertension.
Hyperinsulinemia, Intracellular Calcium, and Membrane Function in Essential Hypertension We read with interest comments by Dr. Sela et al dealing with a possible link between intracellular calcium content of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) and plasma insulin level in patients with essential hypertension. The results of their presented study demonstrated that PMN in essential hypertension sho...
متن کاملPostprandial hyperinsulinemia in patients with mild essential hypertension.
Glucose tolerance tests and diurnal profiles of glucose, insulin, free fatty acids, serum triglycerides, total and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels were performed in 8 male patients with mild essential hypertension as well as in 20 normotensive subjects. Although glucose tolerance and postprandial glucose levels appeared equal in both groups, the insulin response after a glucose load...
