Systolic pressure, diastolic pressure, or pulse pressure as a cardiovascular risk factor in renal disease.

Current Hypertension Reports
José A García-Donaire, Luis M Ruilope

Abstract

Chronic kidney disease is a leading global health problem with an increasing prevalence. Hypertension is present in most patients with chronic kidney disease, and hypertension-related nephrosclerosis is a top cause of progressive renal damage and end-stage renal disease. Systolic blood pressure (BP) and pulse pressure, together with nocturnal BP, are the most important factors favoring the progression of renal failure. Consequently, strict control of BP and other cardiovascular risk factors is required, including an adequate degree of suppression of the renin-angiotensin system in every patient.

Cardiovascular Diseases: Risk Factors

Cardiovascular disease is a significant health concern. Risk factors include hypertension, obesity, dyslipidemia and smoking. Women who are postmenopausal are at an increased risk of heart disease. Here is the latest research for risk factors of cardiovascular disease.

Cardiovascular Risk Prediction

Cardiovascular risk prediction models based on classical risk factors identified in epidemiological studies are useful in primary prevention of cardiovascular disease in individuals. Here is the latest research.

Cardiovascular Disease Pathophysiology

Cardiovascular disease involves several different processes that contribute to the pathological mechanism, including hyperglycemia, inflammation, atherosclerosis, hypertension and more. Vasculature stability plays a critical role in the development of the disease. Discover the latest research on cardiovascular disease pathophysiology here.
