Objective: This study aims to analyze the expressions of miR-21, miR-29, and miR-199 in the serum of the patients with H-type hypertension among Kazakhs. Then, we analyzed the effect of MTHFR 677C > T polymorphism on the association between the above miRNA and H-type hypertension.
Method: In this study, the expression of miR-21, miR-29, and miR-199 was quantitatively measured in 120 serum samples and then stratified according to the C677T polymorphism to analyze the relationship between target miRNAs and HHcy.
Results: The expression of miR-21/-29 in the hypertension group was higher than the normal group ( < 0.001). And the expression of miR-199 was higher in the hcy group than in the normal group ( < 0.001). In the CC and CT genotypes of MTHFR 677C > T, the expression of miR-21 was lower in the HHcy patients than in the normal individuals ( = 0.005 and = 0.001) and miR-199 was significantly higher in the HHcy patients than in the normal ones ( = 0.002 and = 0.048). No such difference was found in the TT genotype. Logistic regression analysis showed that after adjusting for sex, age, BMI, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and MTHFRC677 T gene polymorphism, miR-21 was negatively correlated with hcy (OR = 0.222, 95% CI (0.101-0.485), < 0.001) and miR-199 was positively correlated with hcy (OR = 1.823,95%CI (1.272∼2.614), = 0.001).
Conclusion: miR-21, miR-29, and miR-199 are associated with H-type hypertension in the Kazakhs, especially hyperhomocysteinemia. And these three miRNAs may serve as biomarkers to provide clues to the potential pathogenesis of H-type hypertension.

Background: Vitamin D, folate, and vitamin B are essential micronutrients with widespread insufficiencies globally. Although most previous research examined each of these nutrients individually, few studies have measured biomarkers of these nutrients concurrently in a large population.
Objectives: We aimed to investigate the patterns of concurrent insufficiencies or deficiencies of these nutrients based on serum biomarkers and influencing factors in a rural Chinese population.

Background: Homocysteine (Hcy) is associated with various diseases, but its specific relationship with different types of dizziness remains unclear.
Objectives: This study utilizes NHANES cross-sectional data to investigate the associations between Hcy levels, H-type hypertension, and various symptomatic dizziness, aiming to provide new insights for clinical diagnosis and treatment.
Materials And Methods: This cross-sectional study analyzed 6,970 participants from NHANES (1999-2004) using weighted logistic regression, trend tests, restricted cubic spline analysis, and subgroup analysis.

Backgrounds: The triglyceride-glucose index combined with waist circumference (TyG-WC) has good predictive performance for cardiovascular disease, but the relationship of TyG-WC with H-type hypertension (HTH) is still unclear.
Objects: To explore the association between TyG-WC and HTH, and provide theoretical basis for the prevention and treatment of HTH in the community population.
Methods: The study used multi-stage cluster random sampling to collect representative samples from urban and rural populations in Hunan Province.

This study aims to explore the pathogenic mechanism of H-type hypertension. A rat model of H-type hypertension was established through high-methionine dietary intervention, with subsequent folic acid administration. Untargeted serum metabolomic profiling identified a significant reduction in arachidonic acid (AA) levels in the methionine-enriched group, which were effectively normalized following folic acid supplementation.

Objective: Reports on urinary potassium excretion and H-type hypertension remains rare. We aimed to describe the relationship between 24-hour (h) urinary potassium excretion and the risk of H-type hypertension and non-H-type hypertension, thus to guide personal and public health campaigns including dietary recommendations to lower H-type hypertension and non-H-type hypertension in China.
Methods: In 2020 in Zhejiang, China, a cross-sectional survey on Salt Reduction and Prevention of Hypertension was conducted by using a stratified multistage random sampling strategy, with participants aged 21 to 72 years.
