The association between blood pressure and whole blood methylmercury in a cross-sectional study among Inuit in Greenland

The Inuit in Greenland have a high average consumption of marine species and are highly exposed to methylmercury, which in other studies has been related to hypertension. Data on the relation between methylmercury and hypertension is limited, especially in populations subjected to a high exposure of...
