Mitochondrial dynamics in vascular remodeling and target-organ damage [PDF]
Vascular remodeling is the pathological basis for the development of many cardiovascular diseases. The mechanisms underlying endothelial cell dysfunction, smooth muscle cell phenotypic switching, fibroblast activation, and inflammatory macrophage ...

Cerebro-Cardiovascular Risk, Target Organ Damage, and Treatment Outcomes in Primary Aldosteronism
Primary aldosteronism (PA) is the most common type of endocrine hypertension, and numerous experimental and clinical evidence have verified that prolonged exposure to excess aldosterone is responsible for an increased risk of cerebro-cardiovascular ...

Interrelations Between Arterial Stiffness, Target Organ Damage, and Cardiovascular Disease Outcomes
Background Excess transmission of pressure pulsatility caused by increased arterial stiffness may incur microcirculatory damage in end organs (target organ damage [TOD]) and, in turn, elevate risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD) events.

Cardiac and Vascular Target Organ Damage in Pediatric Hypertension
Atherosclerosis begins in youth and is associated with the presence of numerous modifiable cardiovascular (CV) risk factors, including hypertension. Pediatric hypertension has increased in prevalence since the 1980s but has plateaued in recent years ...

Hypertension generally causes target organ damage (TOD) in the heart, brain, kidney, and blood vessels. This can result in atherosclerosis, plaque formation, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events, and renal failure. Recent studies have indicated that

Temporal patterns of pre- and post-natal target organ damage associated with hypertensive pregnancy: a systematic review. [PDF]
Aims Hypertensive pregnancy is associated with increased risks of developing a range of vascular disorders in later life. Understanding when hypertensive target organ damage first emerges could guide optimal timing of preventive interventions.

Target organ damage in newly detected hypertensive patients
Background: Hypertension (HTN) is difficult to diagnose since it is asymptomatic. Most of the patients with HTN are unaware of their disease, and hence a large number of these subjects have target organ damage (TOD) on their first arrival at hospital or ...

The cumulative blood pressure load and target organ damage in patients with essential hypertension
The area under the blood pressure curve is associated with target organ damage, but accurately estimating its value is challenging. This study aimed to improve the utility of the area under the blood pressure curve to predict hypertensive target organ ...

Hypertension in Children: Narrative Review of Epidemiology, Outcome and Target Organ Damage [PDF]
Hypertension is the leading risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Epidemiologic studies have demonstrated that pediatric hypertension may increase the risk of premature heart disease.
