[Relation between calcium intake with food and arterial pressure in metallurgists of Donbass]. / Vzaimosviaz' potrebleniia kal'tsiia s pishchei i urovnia arterial'nogo davleniia u metallurgov Donbassa.

ABSTRACT

Food rations and 24-hour urinary excretion of calcium were evaluated in 1100 metallurgists and revealed a distinct relationship between low consumption of calcium with food due to reduced intake of milk products and the incidence of elevated arterial pressure levels. This relationship did not depend on age and professional factors.
