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 ...

Blood pressure variability and target organ damage regression in hypertension
The study by Triantafyllidi et al. supports the view that regression of subclinical cardiac damage requires an effective 24‐hour blood pressure (BP) control along with a reduction in BP variability and suggests that the assessment of BPV and its ...

Obesity and target organ damage: diabetes [PDF]
Obesity is an important risk factor for the development of type 2 diabetes. The increasing incidence of obesity accounts in large part for the emergence of type 2 diabetes. Drug treatment of hyperglycaemia and hypertension lowers the risk of diabetic complications, but many of these treatments, including sulphonylureas, insulin and beta-blockers, are ...

CD2 CIRCADIAN BLOOD PRESSURE PROFILE AND TARGET ORGAN DAMAGE
The 24-hour brachial ambulatory blood pressure measurement (ABPM) has the unique ability to provide information on 24-hour averaged blood pressure (BP), on nocturnal BP and day–night BP changes, as well as on 24-hour BP variability, which all provide ...

Targeting Epoxides for Organ Damage in Hypertension [PDF]
Epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) are synthesized from arachidonic acid and EETs have a number of beneficial cardiovascular actions. This has led to the concept that EETs and its metabolic pathway can be therapeutically targeted for hypertension and other cardiovascular diseases.

Hypertensive Target-Organ Damage in the Very Elderly [PDF]
In people aged >80 years, the so-called very elderly, there is uncertainty about the relation between hypertension and cardiovascular morbidity. The aims of this study were to investigate whether hypertension in people aged >80 years is associated with target-organ damage, over and above the effects of age, and to determine whether ...
