It was demonstrated that plasma total homocysteine ( tHcy) is an important and modifiable cardiovascular risk factor, which correlates with the severity of atherosclerotic disease, 1 despite some discordant results. 2 Although data supporting the cause-effect relationship between HT and tHcy are limited, tHcy may play a role in the pathogenesis of HT.en10.1038/sj.jhh.1001986info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessBlood-PressureThe relationship between the levels of plasma total homocysteine and insulin resistance in uncomplicated mild-to-moderate primary hypertensionArticle205379381Q2WOS:0002369575000112-s2.0-3364605458116525487Q2
