ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the changes of plasma adrenomedullin(ADM) and endothelin-1(ET-1),angiotension Ⅱ(Ang-Ⅱ) levels and their clinical significance in the patients with elderly hypertension(HPE).Methods The plasma levels of ADM and ET-1,Ang-Ⅱ were measured by radioimmunoassay in 136 patients with HPE compared with that of in 40 casers of health elders.Results The plasma levels of ADM and ET-1,Ang-Ⅱ were increased significantly in HPE compared with health elders(P
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the changes of plasma adrenomedullin(ADM) and C-type natriuretic peptide(CNP) levels with elderly hypertension(HPE).Methods The plasma levels of ADM and CNP were measured by radioimmunoassay in 136 cases of the HPE(group A) compared with that of in 40 cases healthy elders(group B).Results The plasma levelsof ADM and CNP increased significantly in group A compared with group B(P
