• In this study we selected salt-resistant subjects from the larger sample studied by Sharma (6). The relatively high percentage of a positive family history of hypertension in salt-resistant subjects resulted by sheer chance (59 %) and was very much higher as could be expected from the larger sample studied by Sharma (6; 20 % positive family history of hypertension in salt-resistant subjects)
