Introduction
• “Sustained increase in blood pressure”• Systolic >140, Diastolic > 90 mm of Hg*• Normal* < 130 <85 (120/80 +/- 10/5)• Mild + 20, Moderate +40 Severe +80• Malignant - > 210/120

Hypertension - Introduction• Silent Killer – painless – complications• dizziness, headache, and visual difficulties,• It is the leading risk factor – MI, DM, Stroke• Responsible for the majority of office visits, • Number one reason for drug prescription.• 25% of population, <35% aware…<5% ..! • Complications bring to diagnosis but late…• Chronic, end organ & vascular damage

Regulation of BP:
BP = Cardiac Output x Peripheral Resistance• Endocrine Factors
– Renin, Angiotensin, ANP, ADH, Aldosterone.• Neural Factors
– Sympathetic & Parasympathetic• Blood Volume
– Sodium, Mineralocorticoids, ANP• Cardiac Factors
– Heart rate & Contractility.

Etiologic Classification:• Essential (Primary) Hypertension (95%)
– Unknown etiology. Life style, genetic, …• Secondary Hypertension (5-10%)
– Renal – GN, RAS, Renin tumors– Endocrine – Cushing, OCP, Thyrotoxicosis
Myxdema, Pheochromocytoma, Acromegaly.– Vascular – Coarctation of Aorta, PAN, Aortic
insufficiency.– Neurogenic – Psychogenic, Intracranial
pressure, olyneuritis etc.

Etiology:
• Secondary - Known abnormal control.– Renal disorders – Renin-Angiotensin.
Sodium retention, ADH, Aldosterone.– Cushings, Pheochromocytoma,
• Essential - Etiology is multifactorial.– Increased peripheral resistance
(sympathetic tone)– stress, hormonal, neural.– Genetic, familial, life style.

Hypertensive Retinopathy:• Arteriosclerosis cause the arteriole light reflex to
become broad and dull – silver wire• Generalized or focal retinal arteriolar constriction
– pale.• Superficial flame-shaped hemorrhages.• Small white foci of retinal ischemia (cotton-wool
spots).• Yellow hard exudates, due to lipid deposition
deep in the retina.

Hypertensive Retinopathy:• Grade I – Thickening of
arterioles.• Grade II – Focal Arteriolar
spasms. Vein constriction. (AV nipping)
• Grade III – Hemorrhages (Flame shape), dot-blot and Cotton wool (ischemia) and hard waxy exudates (lipid deposition).
• Grade IV - Papilloedema

G Protien Polymorphisms in Metabolic Syndrome-X
• A common C825T polymorphism in the gene GNB3, which encodes the β3 subunit of heterotrimeric G proteins, was identified in cell lines from patients with hypertension. The 825T allele is associated with increased intracellular signal transduction. Many population-based and case-control studies in different ethnicities have investigated an association between this polymorphism and hypertension, obesity, and atherosclerosis. A critical assessment of published studies suggests that 825T allele carriers have an increased risk for hypertension combined with features of the metabolic syndrome, such as dyslipidemia, hypercholesterolemia, insulin resistance, and obesity. It is anticipated that this polymorphism will be used in clinical practice to better characterize hypertension and for individualized treatment regimens.
