| | Clinical Trial: Lithium Countertransport and Blood Pressure In CARDIA and TOMHS |
 | | CARDIA was a longitudinal study of the influence of lifestyle on coronary heart disease risk factors during the young adult and post-young-adult years, the time period during which risk for cardiovascular disease was thought to undergo crucial evolution. |
 | | The Chicago CARDIA population consisted of 1,100 Black and white men and women age 18 to 30 at baseline, of diverse socioeconomic backgrounds. |
 | | In the cross-sectional CARDIA investigation, studies were conducted on the relationships among lithium countertransport, blood pressure, and factors related to blood pressure such as age, sex, race, weight, body mass index, pulse, dietary factors, alcohol intake, serum glucose, triglycerides, cholesterol, high density lipoprotein cholesterol, uric acid, and ionized and total calcium. |
