Abstract
A study of urinary excretion of Δ5-pregnenetriol was made in normal subjects and hypertensive patients. Using a procedure previously described by us, the mean excretion of this steroid showed a statistically significant (P < 0.001) mean decrease in groups of patients with essential, renal, and malignant hypertension as compared to normal subjects.Keywords
