“…In addition to the above, it has been shown that ACE I/D polymorphism contribute to the development of hypertension in Swedes (Stefansson et al, 2000); North Indians (Sameer et al, 2010; Srivastava et al, 2012; Singh et al, 2016; Rana et al, 2018); Asian Indians (Das et al, 2008); residents of Gujarat, Western India (Patel et al, 2022); Saudi subjects (Ali et al, 2013); Russians (Kovaleva et al, 2019); indigenous ethnic group of Mountain Shoria, Russia (Barbarash et al, 2017); Japanese (Yoshida et al, 2000); Punjabi population from Faisalabad, Pakistan (Hussain et al, 2018); population of Burkina Faso, West Africa (Tchelougou et al, 2015); Ethiopian population, East Africa (Birhan et al, 2022); as well as Han, Kazakh, Tibetan, and Zhuang Chinese populations (Li, 2012; Sun et al, 2018). In contrast, the association between ACE I/D genotypes and hypertension has not been established in Slovenians (Glavnik and Petrovic, 2007); Buryats (Kovaleva et al, 2019); Thais (Charoen et al, 2019); Romany subjects and Slovaks (Danková et al, 2009); Cuban population, primarily of European and African ancestry, living in Havana (Nápoles et al, 2007); Algerian population from Oran (Meroufel et al, 2014); and some Chinese minorities, including Mongolians, Uyghurs, Yugurs, Koreans, and others (Li, 2012).…”
