RISK FACTORS FOR CARDIAC AND RENAL DISEASE IN HYPERTENSIVE PATIENTS WITH OVERWEIGHT OR OBESITY

Ancona, IT: Along with BP and BMI, albuminuria measured in a morning urine sample asACRis a valuable low-cost index of cardiac organ damage and increased cardiovascular risk in hypertensive patients independently by MetS. On the other hand, MetS is not an independent risk factor for cardiac damage because it does not seem to add anything more than the sum of each of its components (especially SBP and adiposity indexed by BMI) to the relationship between cardiac and renal subclinical organ damage.
