Endocrine Hypertension: From Basic Science to Clinical Practice bridges the gap between scientists and practicing clinicians by providing a comprehensive overview on all forms of endocrine hypertension, covering epidemiological aspects, pathophysiology, clinical presentation, laboratory evaluation and practical management aspects of endocrine hypertension. This book is a great resource for endocrinologists, physicians, general practitioners and researchers who are eager to understand the complex facets of endocrine hypertension.
Endocrine hypertension is a term used to describe a group of endocrine pathologies that cause an elevation of blood pressure, estimated to account for up to 10% of all hypertension cases. Although common, this clinical condition is often overlooked. Patients with this condition are at risk of late diagnosis, delayed treatment and detrimental health consequences.
- Provides a comprehensive overview on all forms of endocrine hypertension
- Discusses molecular physiology and pathophysiology of various endocrine hypertension related conditions and offers guidance to diagnosis and management of endocrine hypertension
- Includes instructional overview figures, diagrams, flowcharts, scan images and tables to enhance understanding
Researchers interested in secondary hypertension, endocrinologists, internal medicine and primary care physicians. Practicing cardiologists and internal medicine doctors
