Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Hypertension remains one of the leading modifiable risk factors for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality worldwide, affecting over one billion individuals globally. Despite significant advances in pharmacological and interventional therapies, a substantial proportion of hypertensive patients fail to achieve adequate blood pressure control, contributing to persistent rates of stroke, heart failure, chronic kidney disease, and premature death. This Special Issue of the Journal of Clinical Medicine aims to provide a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of clinical advances in hypertension and its related complications. We welcome original research articles, systematic reviews, meta-analyses, and narrative reviews covering a broad range of topics, including but not limited to secondary and resistant hypertension, novel diagnostic approaches such as ambulatory blood pressure monitoring, emerging pharmacological and device-based therapies, hypertension-mediated organ damage, hypertension in special populations (pregnancy, the elderly, chronic kidney disease), and cardiovascular risk stratification. We invite researchers and clinicians from all relevant disciplines to contribute to this interdisciplinary collection.
Dr. Antonio Concistrè
Guest Editor
