Computational analysis of candidate disease genes and variants for salt-sensitive hypertension in indigenous Southern Africans.
Multiple factors underlie susceptibility to essential hypertension, including a significant genetic and ethnic component, and environmental effects. Blood pressure response of hypertensive individuals to salt is heterogeneous, but salt sensitivity appears more prevalent in people of indigenous Afric...
