Popis: | Background: Following our description of an hereditability of a decreased erythrocyte K [Ki] independent of cell Na, in essential hypertension (EH), a long-term study of RBC (Ki, Nai, H2O) content, plasma (Na, K, Cl, ionized Ca), trans-tubular K gradient (TTKG), total body K (TBK) and body water distribution by Bio-Impedance Analysis was carried out in 185 hypertensives (47±19 y, 57 females; BP 167±11/101±7 mm Hg). Results: All cases had low Ki (85.3±6 mmol/l vs 96.2±4 mmol/l in normal, p |
