Hypertension and Target Organ Damage

2019
The impact of arterial hypertension on the heart, the central nervous system, the arterial vessels and the kidney is responsible for subsequent mortality and morbidity. Evaluation of early target organ damage (TOD) in these organs is an important step in a risk stratification strategy to reduce cardiovascular and renal damage.

Kidney in Diabetes: from Organ Damage Target to Therapeutic Target

Current Drug Metabolism, 2011
Despite the growing of pharmacological options for the treatment of diabetes, epidemiological studies suggest that a substantial proportion of patients does not achieve glycemic goals and so suffers from the risk of chronic complications. This review explores the inhibition of renal glucose reabsorption as a novel approach to treat hyperglycemia ...

Obesity and target organ damage: the heart

International Journal of Obesity, 2002
In most patients, coronary atherosclerosis or congestive heart failure develop as an integrated response to multiple cardiovascular risk factors. Obesity increases the prevalence of most cardiovascular risk factors and is the predominant cause of diabetes mellitus and arterial hypertension.

Target organ damage in acute heart failure

Revista Clínica Española (English Edition), 2016
Acute heart failure is a prognostic factor due to its high mortality during the acute phase and the increased frequency of medium to long-term adverse events. The pathophysiological mechanisms triggered during these exacerbations can persist after reaching clinical stability, remaining even after the acute episode has ended.

Target Organ Damage and RAAS Blockade

2014
This chapter will focus on the influence of target organ damage, particularly of left ventricular hypertrophy and subclinical kidney dysfunction, in the choice of ACEIs or ARBs therapy in patients with hypertension and heart failure.

[Blood pressure components and target organ damage].

Italian heart journal. Supplement : official journal of the Italian Federation of Cardiology, 2001
In a given hypertensive patient, clinically overt cardiovascular disease is often preceded by a number of signs of target organ damage at the cardiac, arterial and renal levels. These changes have been collectively defined "pre-clinical cardiovascular disease", and carry a substantially increased risk for future cardiovascular complications.

TARGET ORGAN DAMAGE IN ARTERIAL HYPERTENSION

Farmaciâ Kazahstana
Arterial hypertension is one of the leading risk factors for cardiovascular diseases, and target organ damage significantly worsens patient prognosis. In outpatient practice, early diagnosis of microvascular changes (retinopathy, reduced capillary density, albuminuria) plays a crucial role in assessing the degree of organ damage and determining the ...

[Cardial target-organ damage in diabetes].

Der Internist, 2011
Coronary heart disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus can be considered as a syntropy. Accordingly, cardiologists and diabetologists should organize an interdisciplinary car of the patient with both cardiac disease and diabetes mellitus. Arterial hypertension is frequently present in the diabetic condition and increases further morbidity and mortality ...
