Changes of apelin-13 concentration in patients with essential hypertension and extrasystole
BACKGROUND: Hypertension is one of the leading causes of disability and mortality among cardiovascular diseases, so today new metabolic markers of cardiovascular risk are being actively studied. One of them is apelin-13.

Diabetes and arterial hypertension [PDF]
The epidemiology, pathogenesis, significance and management of hypertension in diabetic subjects are discussed. In Type 1 diabetes the presence of diastolic hypertension is closely related to the presence of diabetic nephropathy, from the stage of persistent proteinuria onwards. There may also be some elevation of systolic pressure.

The Challenges of Arterial Hypertension [PDF]
The blood pressure (BP) is the force generated by the heart that drives circulation of the blood. After Scipione Riva-Rocci first introduced the sphygmomanometer at the beginning of last century, for decades arterial hypertension (hypertension) was considered to be “essential” for securing the perfusion of vital organs, as the brain, heart, and kidney.

Hypertension and arterial aneurysm
The rather common coexistence of arterial aneurysm and systemic hypertension may be attributed to their respective frequency as clinical findings. The development of hypertension secondary to renal ischemia that can occur as a complication of certain types of aneurysmal disease is well recognized.
