Objective: To explore the relationship between the -344T/C polymorphism of aldosterone synthase (CYP11B2) gene and essential hypertension in Chinese Mongolian population.
Methods: By cluster-sampling method, a total of 1575 Mongolian people in Tongliao city of Inner Mongolia were included in this study. And 417 subjects were normotension, 596 subjects were prehypertension and 562 subjects were essential hypertension.
The present study aimed to explore gene-gene and gene-environment interactions among three candidate genes and several environmental risk factors, and their impacts on hypertension in Chinese Mongolian population. A cross-sectional study was conducted in 2003-2004 among 1,575 Mongolian people in Tongliao City of Inner Mongolia, China. Epidemiologic and clinical data and blood samples were obtained from subjects.

Methods: A total of 1575 Mongolian people aged 20 and older including 562 hypertensive and 1013 normal-tensive from agricultural and pastoral areas in Tongliao city of Inner Mongolia, were included in this study. A cross-sectional survey was conducted to collect data by personal interview with local residents, using a standard questionnaire.
[Sero-epidemiologic study on the relationship between Chlamydia pneumonia infection and hypertension in Chinese Mongolian population].

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how Chlamydia pneumonia (CP) infections relate to hypertension and how traditional risk factors interact with CP infections among the Chinese Mongolian population.
- A total of 1,430 residents were assessed, revealing that while CP infection rates differed in relation to hypertension, the association weakened when controlling for factors like age, sex, and lifestyle habits.
- Ultimately, the research concludes that CP infection alone doesn't cause hypertension in this population, but its interaction with traditional risk factors (like BMI and dyslipidemia) does elevate hypertension risk.
Objective: To investigate the association of specific functional gene ACE (I/D) variants of the renin-angiotensin system with essential hypertension (EH) and interaction between ACE (I/D) gene and risk factors for EH in a genetically homogenous Mongolia rural population of China.
Methods: Individuals (n=1099) were recruited from general population of Kezuohouqi Banner in Inner Mongolian Autonomous Region.
Results: The association was found between ACE genotype DD plus ID and EH, with an interaction between ACE genotype DD plus ID and cigarette smoking in an additive model.
