The purposes of the study are to evaluate the relative contributions of insulin resistance and renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system to blood pressure (BP) in subjects with prehypertension. This is a cross-sectional study. Anthropometric and BP measurements will be performed in 50 prehypertensive subjects. The subjects will receive a 75-g oral glucose tolerance test and a postural stimulation test for the measurements of insulin resistance, plasma rennin concentration and aldosterone level. Log (ISI0,120), an insulin sensitivity index from the oral glucose tolerance test, will be calculated. Statistical analyses will be performed to compare the degree to which aldosterone and Log (ISI0,120) predicted systolic and diastolic BP in these prehypertensive subjects.
