Environmental and genetic contribution to hypertension prevalence: data from an epidemiological survey on Sardinian genetic isolates.
<h4>Background and objectives</h4>Hypertension represents a major cause of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality worldwide but its prevalence has been shown to vary in different countries. The reasons for such differences are still matter of debate, the relative contributions given by e...
