Modern Approach to the Assessment of Hypertension and Metabolic Disorders

Year: 2013

Type: article

Abstract: According to modern ideas, hypertension is the leading component of the metabolic syndrome (MS) in the Russian Federation. The interaction of genetic and environmental factors is known to create a cascade of cardiometabolic disorders that reduce the patients’ quality of life, increase the risk of cardiovascular complications, morbidity and all-cause mortality. There is a complex of unfavourable factors acting in MS. An active search for other medical risk factors in a hypertensive patient, including subclinical organ damage, followed by adequate treatment of each of the components, should be encouraged.
