Nationwide survey of prevalence and risk factors of prehypertension and hypertension in Iranian adults.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:Recent studies have shown that the heptapeptide angiotensin-(1-7) [Ang-(1-7)] exerts important vasoactive actions and can act as an endogenous physiological antagonist of angiotensin II (Ang II) within the renin-angiotensin system (RAS). The present study was performed to evaluate the effects, first, of chron...
