GAS5 and hypertensive disorder: Moreover, there was a significant positive correlation between NEAT1 and HDL in both groups (r = 0.219, P = 0.037 in HTN and r = 0.302, P = 0.002 in NHTN group) and between GAS5 and HDL in NHTN (r = 0.225, P = 0.015), but, a significant negative correlation between HOTAIR and HDL in NHTN (r = −0.233, P = 0.023).
