Abstract
A case-control study was conducted to investigate the effect of low-level blood lead on the blood pressure. The plasma renin activity(PRA) was measured also to investigate one of the possible mechanisms by which lead nay play a role to influence on the blood pressure. Seventy-two hypertensive and sixty -nine control study subjects were selected from the workers who had no history of b-related lead exposure, in Ulsan city and it's vicinity, Korea. In addition to measuring blood lead levels and PRA, body mass index(BMI), hematocrit, serum sodium, potassium, creatinine, ionized calcium, and cholesterol were measured. Also, the habits of smoking, alcohol drinking and family history of hypertension were checked. The blood lead level of the hypertensive group was
일상생활을 통한 연섭취로 인한 고혈압 발생 가능성 및 이때 연이 혈압에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 기전을 밝히기 위한 연구의 일환으로 환자 대조군 연구를 실시하였다. 대상자로서 울산 및 그 인근지역의 직업적 연폭로 과거력이 없는 남자 근로자 중 고혈압 환자 72명, 대조군 69명을 선택하였다. 혈중 연과 혈장레닌활성도(Plasma renin activity, PRA)를 측정하였으며 동시에 흡연유무, 음주유무, 고혈압 가족력 유무를 확인하고 body mass index(BMI), 혈청 소디움, 포타시움, 이온화 칼슘, 크레아티닌 및 총 콜레스테롤을 측정하였다. 고혈압군의 혈중 연농도는
