In the vast majority of cases the cause for hypertension is not known. On the basis of observations from black and multiethnic populations, it has been hypothesized that a genetically high tissue creatine kinase activity may be an independent factor responsible for primary hypertension. If the relation between creatine kinase and blood pressure is causal, it is reasonable to believe that it will be independent of ethnicity and present in different populations. In this cross-sectional study, we examined whether creatine kinase was associated with blood pressure in a large Caucasian normal population.
