Abstract
These results reveal that BMC is partially and inversely correlated with resting SBP and DBP in premenopausal Hispanic women; in addition hypertensive women have lower adjusted means of BMC than normotensive women. Sustained hypercalciuria and ensuing hyperparathyroidism as consequences of high BP may be the mechanisms that explain the pathophysiology of increased bone mineral loss in hypertension.
