The renin-angiotensin-system and left ventricular mass in young adults: the African-PREDICT study.

CONCLUSION: Despite a suppressed RAS in the black compared to the white group, components of the RAS were not associated with LVMi in this young cohort. The low socio-economic black women of this study population may be vulnerable to future RAS-related increases in left ventricular mass. PMID: 33084438 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
