HP DUSTAN - Annals of Internal Medicine, 1983 - Am Coll Physicians Epidemiologic studies suggest that obesity is a major factor in hypertension in industrialized
societies. Possible mechanisms for this association include elevated cardiac output, increased
body sodium due to hyperinsulinemia or abnormal aldosterone/renin relationships, and ... Cited by 83 - Related articles - All 2 versions
AP Rocchini, C Moorehead, E Wentz, S Deremer - Hypertension, 1987 - pt.wkhealth.com SUMMARY To study the relationship between body weight and blood pressure, we have developed
an animal model of obestiy-induced hypertension. Nine adult mongrel dogs were chronically
instru- mented with aortic and vena caval catheters. After a 2-week control period, all ... Cited by 57 - Related articles - All 4 versions
- ►ahajournals.org [PDF] AP Rocchini, CP Moorehead, S DeRemer, D Bondie - Hypertension, 1989 - Am Heart Assoc We have previously shown that weight gain in the dog results in an increase in blood
pressure. To study the pathogenesis of the rise in blood pressure associated with weight
gain, we compared the serial changes in blood pressure, body weight, sodium balance, ... Cited by 79 - Related articles - All 5 versions
AP Rocchini - Physiology, 1990 - Am Physiological Soc Since 1924 it has been recognized that body weight and arterial pres- sure are related. In
addition, there are features of this relationship be- tween body weight and blood pres- sure that
are unique in comparison to other causes of hypertension. First, weight loss is associated ... Cited by 30 - Related articles - All 4 versions
RJ HAVLIK, HB HUBERT, RR FABSITZ, M … - Annals of Internal …, 1983 - Am Coll Physicians Both excess weight and hypertension may contribute independently to increased risk of cardiovascular
disease. Weight and blood pressure have been found to be associated in most studies in diverse
populations. The increase or decrease of blood pressure with weight gain or loss ... Cited by 136 - Related articles - All 2 versions

factors in obesity-associated hypertension, a cause and effect relation between insulin,

KA Kirchner - American Journal of Physiology- Renal Physiology, 1988 - Am Physiological Soc INSULIN REDUCES urinary sodium excretion in dogs and in humans (4, 5, 16, 22). This appears
to result from direct effects on tubule transport as insulin reduces urinary sodium excretion in
the isolated perfused dog kidney without altering renal hemodynamics or glomer- ular ... Cited by 67 - Related articles - All 3 versions
