  • Title: [The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system in hypertensive subjects. I-Analytical study of 124 patients (author's transl)].

    Journal: Nouv Presse Med; ; 6(28):2483-7. PubMed ID: 917787.
    Abstract:
    An analytical study of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system was made in 124 individuals with essential hypertension, aged from 25 to 55 years. The results obtained, with rigorous control to posture and sodium balance, indicate the existence of a number of subgroups of hypertensive subjects related to their renin activity and plasma aldosterone in the upright position. This classification thus makes possible comparison with patients suffering from secondary hypertension.
