Additionally, hypertensive subjects had a significantly lower intake of dietary folate than normotensive individuals (p = 0.0221), although this did not markedly alter blood metabolite levels. Several significant linear associations between dietary folate and related blood metabolites were found in normotensive subjects (p<0.001 for Hcy, red cell and serum folate) and were as predicted on an a priori basis – generally weaker associations existed in hypertensive subjects (p<0.05 for serum folate). This was true for data examined collectively or by genotype. Multiple regression analysis for diastolic or systolic blood pressure showed significant interaction for gender and folate intake (p = 0.014 and 0.019, respectively). In both cases this interaction occurred only in females, with higher folate intake associated with decreased blood pressure. Regressing diastolic blood pressure and 677C>T-MTHFR genotype showed significance (males; p = 0.032) and borderline significance (all subjects). Conclusion: Dietary folate and 677C>T-MTHFR genotype may modify blood pressure.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:37:49 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:1465 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:28:06 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:18190 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:04:22 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:17304 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:01:49 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:22266 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:17:33 AEDT ]]>
