Participant Flow

A study record search was completed on 500 youth for inflammatory marker Interleukin 6 (IL-6), genetic polymorphism and stress induced urinary sodium secretion data. 599 parents of identified subjects were asked to submit Buccal swabs for the analysis of IL-6 genes.

Measure
Children
Genotyping and IL-6 levels of 500 children enrolled in two previous studies were collected in the current study. Other phenotype data: Baseline blood pressure, stress blood pressure, and recovery blood pressure; Baseline stress and recovery urinary sodium excretion that were collected in two previous studies were utilized in the current study.
Parents
Buccal swabs from the Parents of 500 subjects in the children arm were collected and analyzed for genetic variations. Some parents submitted duplicate swabs if more than 1 child was represented in the 500 subjects.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline and 4 hour

Population: All 500 subjects in the group Children were analyzed. This data was not intended to be analyzed for Arm 2 Parents.

The value of Stress induced UNaV as determined by delta UNaV = stress UNaV - baseline UNaV.

Outcome measures

11.8 pg/ml
Standard Deviation 5.6
Change in Urinary Sodium Excretion (UNaV)

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: baseline and 4 hours

Population: All 500 subjects in the group Children were analyzed. This data was not intended to be analyzed for Arm 2 Parents.

Stress induced systolic blood pressure (SBP) data generated from two previous studies was collected. In the previous studies, systolic blood pressures were measured before and after completing a video game challenge. Stress induced SBP is defined as delta SBP = stress SBP - baseline SBP.
