Ouabain-resistant phenomenon and changes of transmembrane ion transport in essential hypertensies with a family history of hyperten- sion

摘要

Objective: To investigate the role of heredity in the ouabain-resistant phenomenon and the rela- tionship between ouabain-resistance and transmembrane ion transport in essential hypertensives. Methods: A total of 52 essential hypertensies were investigated. Of the patients, 23 were with a family history of hyper- tension (FH~+ group) and 29 were without (FH~- group). Other 25 normotensives were employed to serve as the controls (control group).
