Barriers to hypertension care and control in young urban black men.

abstract：:Previous investigations have demonstrated an association between impaired insulin sensitivity and elevated erythrocyte sodium-lithium countertransport (Na(+)-Li+ CT) activity. It has been speculated that insulin resistance and endogenous hyperinsulinemia are causally related to the development of elevated Na(+)-Li+ CT...
