[Renin activity in the blood plasma in healthy persons and in hypertension patients of different ages and sexes].
Examination of 248 persons, among whom 64 were healthy (35 males and 29 females from 17 to 40 years old), and 184 (139 males and 54 females from 17 to 50 years old) suffering from hypertensive disease was conducted. Blood plasma renin activity in healthy males was 1 1/2 times higher than that in healthy females. Similar differences were revealed in the group of patients with a labile form of hypertensive disease. No significant difference in renin activity was revealed between males and females with a stable form of the disease. A significant decrease in renin activity was revealed in males and females over 40 years of age with labile and stable forms of hypertensive disease.
