A relationship between erythrocyte Na+/Li(+)-countertransport activity and blood pressure was studied in a randomly selected sample (95 subjects) with full range of blood pressure, from a representative group of inhabitants of one of Moscow's districts. The mean rate of erythrocyte Na+/Li(+)- countertransport activity was higher (p < 0.01 or less) in the groups of subjects with both borderline (BH) and moderate essential hypertension (EH) as compared with the group of normotensives (NT). A positive correlation was found between the erythrocyte Na+/Li(+)- countertransport rate and age and body weight in the entire selected group. The total contribution of these confounding parameters is responsible for 20.4% of the interindividual variability of the Na+/Li(+)- countertransport activity. The individual Na+/Li(+)- countertransport values remained unchanged during at least 2 years of follow-up. A nonlinear relationship between erythrocyte Na+/Li(+)- countertransport activity and blood pressure was established in the entire group. No significant association between blood pressure and Na+/Li(+)- countertransport was seen at high and low values of these two parameters. A pronounced change in the erythrocyte Na+/Li(+)- countertransport values occurred within a narrow borderline blood pressure range.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D006973 Hypertension Persistently high systemic arterial BLOOD PRESSURE. Based on multiple readings (BLOOD PRESSURE DETERMINATION), hypertension is currently defined as when SYSTOLIC PRESSURE is consistently greater than 140 mm Hg or when DIASTOLIC PRESSURE is consistently 90 mm Hg or more. Blood Pressure, High,Blood Pressures, High,High Blood Pressure,High Blood Pressures
D008094 Lithium An element in the alkali metals family. It has the atomic symbol Li, atomic number 3, and atomic weight [6.938; 6.997]. Salts of lithium are used in treating BIPOLAR DISORDER. Lithium-7,Lithium 7
D008297 Male Males
D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D012044 Regression Analysis Procedures for finding the mathematical function which best describes the relationship between a dependent variable and one or more independent variables. In linear regression (see LINEAR MODELS) the relationship is constrained to be a straight line and LEAST-SQUARES ANALYSIS is used to determine the best fit. In logistic regression (see LOGISTIC MODELS) the dependent variable is qualitative rather than continuously variable and LIKELIHOOD FUNCTIONS are used to find the best relationship. In multiple regression, the dependent variable is considered to depend on more than a single independent variable.
