Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Hypertension is one of the most common cardiovascular risk factors and a leading cause of morbidity, disability, and mortality worldwide.
In the last few years, significant developments in the knowledge of basic mechanisms of hypertension and its management have been accrued. However, important differences between Guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of hypertension exist in the classification of blood pressure levels and definition of treatment goals. Thus, efforts are still mandatory to improve treatment strategies. More specifically, we should learn more about optimal blood pressure targets to be achieved in the general hypertensive population and in specific subgroups at different cardiovascular risk.
The aim of this Special Issue is to collect reviews and original articles investigating pathophysiologic, diagnostic, and therapeutic aspects related to the management of hypertensive patients.
