Essential Hypertension
Conditions
Brief summary
The registry study aims to determine serial biomarkers to prognosis of Essential Hypertension
Detailed description
The study aims to investigate the role of candidate biomarkers in the prognosis of Essential Hypertension. In the prognosis part of the study, patients with confirmed hypertension are enrolled. The outcome is unstable angina, coronary revascularization, acute myocardial infarction, heart failure, atrial fibrillation, ischemic cerebral infarction, hemorrhagic cerebral infarction, transient ischemic attack, doubling of serum creatinine or end-stage renal disease (defi ned as eGFR less than 15 mL/min/1·73 m² or need for chronic dialysis) and all-cause mortality.

The qualifying risk factors were male sex, age older than 50 years, verified diabetes mellitus, current smoking, high total cholesterol, left ventricular hypertrophy by electrocardiogram, proteinuria on dipstick and raised serum creatinine between 150 and 265 umol/L. The qualifying diseases were verified coronary disease, cerebrovascular disease or peripheral arterial occlusive disease, or left ventricular hypertrophy with strain pattern.
