Plasma creatine kinase activity in normotension and treated hypertension. Values depict significant differences in mean plasma creatine kinase (CK) activity (SE) after rest in a random population sample as assessed with ANOVA (P<0.001) (54). *, in the post-test, CK levels between “normotension” and “controlled hypertension” were not significantly different. ^†‡, CK in “treated”, but “uncontrolled hypertension” was significantly higher than “normotension”, and “treated controlled hypertension” (P<0.001).
