Serum calcium, magnesium and plasma renin activity were studied in the gro-ups of 20 controls and 20 hypertensives.
All patients were admitted to Ewha Womans University Hospital between Ma-rch 1984 and August 1984.
The following results were obtained :
1) The plasma renin activity in normal controls were 1.40±1.48mg/ml/hr, and 1.59±1.97 ng/ml/hr in hypertensives. Most of the hypertensives were normal re-nin hypetension.
2) The serum calcium in normal controls were 8.85±0.84㎎/dl and 9.14±0.49㎎/dl in hypertensives and had no correlationship between plasma renin activity and serum ca-lcium in controls, byt had positive correlationship in hypertensives (P<0.025).
4) The serum magnesium in normal controls were 2.85±0.82㎎/dl and 2.63±0.34㎎/dl in hypertensives and had no correlationship to mean blood pressure.
5) There were no correlationship between plasma renin activity and serum magnesium in both controls and hypertensives.
