镉(Cd)是一种环境污染物,已知其与人群心血管病相关,但是镉与高血压的关系研究结果不一致。研究人员对美国印第安人(身体镉负荷高于美国全国人口平均水平)尿镉浓度(总身体负荷测定指标)与血压的关系进行分析。使用电感耦合等离子体质谱法测定尿镉浓度,并依照尿肌酐浓度进行调整。结果:在Strong Heart研究中的3714名中年美国印第安受试
Cadmium (Cd) is an environmental pollutant known to be associated with cardiovascular disease in humans, but the results of studies on the relationship between cadmium and hypertension are inconsistent. The researchers analyzed the relationship between urinary cadmium concentrations (total body load measures) and blood pressure in American Indians (with a cadmium load higher than the average U.S. national population). Urinary cadmium concentrations were determined using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry and adjusted for urinary creatinine concentrations. Results: 3714 middle-aged American Indian subjects in the Strong Heart study
