High blood pressure, known medically as hypertension referred to, relates in Germany millions of people. Without adequate treatment, it can lead to serious health problems — from heart attacks to strokes. In the last few decades, statins have taken on a Central role in the treatment of patients with elevated blood pressure and high cholesterol levels. But what are statins and how do they work against high blood pressure? Statins are a group of drugs that are primarily used to reduce the levels of LDL cholesterol (bad cholesterol) in the blood. Among the most famous representatives of Atorvastatin, Simvastatin and Rosuvastatin. Their mechanism of action is based on the fact that an enzyme called HMG‑CoA reductase inhibit the cholesterol synthesis in the liver responsible. By the cholesterol levels will be lowered, reducing statins, the risk of atherosclerosis — a hardening of the blood vessels, which in turn can lead to high blood pressure and cardiovascular diseases. How are cholesterol and high blood pressure? Even if statins do not have a direct blood-pressure-lowering effect, play an important indirect role. In the case of atherosclerosis, the blood, narrowing of vessels due to cholesterol deposits, reducing blood flow more difficult. The body responds to it, often with an increase in blood pressure, the blood circulation to maintain. The cholesterol lowering statins can slow down the vasoconstriction and to the stabilization of the blood pressure to contribute. The benefits of statins for high blood pressure Studies show that patients with hypertension and high LDL cholesterol benefit from therapy with statins: Reduced risk of heart attack and stroke. Slowing the progression of atherosclerosis. Improvement in vascular elasticity (anti‑inflamatorische effects). Long-term reduction of cardiovascular events. Side effects and points of criticism In spite of their effectiveness of statins are not without controversy. Some patients report side effects such as: Muscle pain and weakness (myopathy). Increased blood sugar levels (risk for type 2 Diabetes). Liver function disorders (rare). Impaired memory and concentration difficulties (controversial data). In addition, there is in the world of debate about whether statins are often prescribed, especially in patients with low cardiovascular risk. Conclusion: A tool in the overall concept Statins alone do not solve the Problem of high blood pressure, but they are an important Element in the prevention of cardiovascular diseases. Your application should always be.in the context of a comprehensive treatment plan that includes lifestyle changes, a healthy diet, regular physical activity, weight control, and avoiding tobacco and excessive alcohol consumption Crucial to an individual Benefit-risk assessment by the attending doctor. The only way a therapy with statins can be both safe and effective — and the way to a healthier lifestyle and pave.

Risk factors for cardiovascular disease: An Overview Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are the leading causes of death. The identification and modification of risk factors is a key approach in the prevention of these diseases. Risk factors fall into modifiable and non-modifiable categories. Among the non-modifiable risk factors: Age: With age, the risk for CVD increases significantly. In men at increased risk from the 45. Age observed in women from the onset of Menopause (about 55 years). Gender: men exposed, in General, a higher risk than women in the premenopausal age. This is in part attributed to the protective effect of Estrogens back. Genetic Disposition: A family history of early‑onset cardiovascular diseases (men &lt; 55 years for women &lt; 65 years) is considered to be an independent risk factor. The modifiable risk factors constitute the main focus of the prevention measures. Among them are: High blood pressure (arterial hypertension): A persistently elevated blood pressure (≥140/90 mmHg) vessels to increased workload on the heart and the blood, and is a major risk factor for heart attack and stroke. Dyslipidemia: elevated total cholesterol levels, in particular, an increase in LDL‑cholesterol (bad cholesterol) and low HDL‑cholesterol (good cholesterol), favor the development of atherosclerosis. Tobacco use: cigarette Smoking leads to damage of the vascular wall, increases the heart rate and blood pressure, and promotes thrombus formation. The risk for cardiovascular events decreases significantly after the Cessation of Smoking. Diabetes mellitus: Diabetes type 2 the risk for cardiovascular disease is significantly increased, since the high blood sugar levels damage the blood vessels. Overweight and obesity: An increased body mass index (BMI ≥25 kg/m 2 for Overweight, and ≥30 kg/m 2 for obesity) and, in particular, a Central fat distribution (Apfeltyp) are associated with an increased risk. Lack of exercise (Hypodynamie): Regular physical activity strengthens the cardiovascular System, lowers blood pressure, improves the lipid spectrum and helps with weight control. Unhealthy diet: A diet with a high content of saturated fatty acids, TRANS-fats, salt and sugar promotes Obesity, hypertension and dyslipidemia. Excessive consumption of alcohol: Chronic, excessive consumption of alcohol can lead to high blood pressure, inflammations of the heart muscle (cardiomyopathy) and heart rhythm disorders. In summary, the analysis shows that many of the main causes of cardiovascular diseases can be influenced through targeted lifestyle changes and medical interventions. A combined strategy for the reduction of several risk factors provides the best protection against the onset of these life-threatening diseases. <a href="http://chenxiaowei.com/uploadfile/350-what-is-cardiovascular-disease-means.xml">In diseases of the cardiovascular system diet is applied</a> ** Statins for high blood pressure **. In diseases of the cardiovascular system diet used: An important component of therapy Cardiovascular disease causes are the most frequent causes of death worldwide. Heart attacks, strokes, hypertension and other diseases of this system constitute a serious threat to health. In addition to pharmacological treatment and exercise a customized nutrition plays a crucial role in the prevention and therapy. A special diet in cardiovascular diseases aims to reduce the burden on the heart to reduce blood pressure to normalize the level of cholesterol and to stabilize the weight of the body. Its basic principle is: less salt, saturated fat and sugar more fiber, unsaturated fatty acids as well as vitamins and minerals. What should be included in the diet? Reduction of salt. Excessive salt consumption leads to fluid retention in the body and increases blood pressure. Therefore, it is recommended to limit your daily salt consumption to 5 grams (about a teaspoon). Hidden salt in ready meals, sausages and Snacks should be avoided if possible. Healthy fatty acids instead of saturated fats. TRANS fats and saturated fatty acids from fat-containing meat, Butter and full-fat dairy products can increase the levels of LDL‑cholesterol (bad cholesterol). Instead of vegetable Oils (olive oil, canola oil), nuts, and fish (especially salmon, mackerel, herring) should enrich it with your Omega‑3‑fatty acids in the diet. More vegetables, fruits and whole grain products. Fiber-rich foods to support the intestinal activity, lower cholesterol, and ensure a long-lasting feeling of satiety. A minimum of 400 -500 g of fresh vegetables and fruit daily as well as whole grain breads and cereals belong to the optimal dining plan. Limit sugar and processed foods. Sugary drinks, candy, and processed products can cause Obesity and insulin resistance lead — risk factors for heart disease. Sufficient Fluid Intake. Healthy people should drink at least 1.5 -2 litres of water or unsweetened tea. In the case of certain heart and kidney disease, the amount of liquid can be limited, however — here is the consultation with the doctor is essential. Practical implementation: an example of A day Breakfast: whole-grain bread with Avocado and tomato, a Quark with berries and flax seeds, unsweetened tea. Lunch: lentil soup, fried fillets of salmon with Quinoa and gedünsten vegetables (broccoli, carrots, peppers). Dinner: chicken breast fillet with mashed potato (with olive oil) and a large salad of leafy greens, cucumber, and tomato with olive oil Dressing. Important Note Any diet should be individually and by a doctor or dietician tuned. In the case of certain diseases (e.g., heart failure, kidney disease), there are special rules for the salt and fluid intake. Self-medication, or drastic diet change without doctor's consultation can be dangerous. Conclusion: this is A balanced, heart-healthy diet not a short‑term diet program, but a life‑long path to the strengthening of the cardiovascular system. You can reduce the risk of complications, and quality of life improve.

The WHO estimates that about a third of the world's adult population is affected by hypertension. The effective reduction in blood pressure is, therefore, of crucial importance for the prevention of these life-threatening complications. Diagnosis and treatment goals Hypertension is diagnosed if the systolic blood pressure is regularly more than 140 mmHg and/or diastolic above 90 mmHg. The primary goal of therapy is to reduce the blood pressure in the long term, these limits way, ideal to below 130/80 mmHg, especially in patients with additional risk factors or pre-existing organ damage. Important classes of modern antihypertensive agents The modern pharmacotherapy has a wide variety of drug classes, which are based on different physiological mechanisms: ACE inhibitors (Angiotensin‑converting enzyme inhibitor) Active ingredients such as Enalapril and Ramipril inhibit the enzyme for the conversion of Angiotensin I into the vasoconstrictor Angiotensin II. As a result, the vessel will be lowered resistance and blood pressure is reduced. They are regarded as the drugs of first choice in patients with Diabetes mellitus or chronic kidney disease. AT1‑receptor blockers (Sartans) Representatives such as Losartan and Valsartan block the action of Angiotensin II directly to its receptors. They have a similar efficacy profile, such as ACE‑inhibitors, can cause, however, is typically a dry cough as a side effect. Calcium channel blocker (CCB) Amlodipine and nifedipine act through inhibition of the influx of calcium ions into the smooth muscle cells of the blood vessels, which leads to vasodilation. They are particularly effective in older patients and in isolated systolic hypertension. Thiazide Diuretics Hydrochlorothiazide belongs to the group, and promotes the excretion of salt and water by the kidney, reducing the blood volume and thus blood pressure to drop. They are often used in combination therapies. Beta-blockers Drugs such as Metoprolol and Bisoprolol reduce blood pressure by reducing the heart rate and cardiac output. You play a special role after a heart attack or heart failure. Combination therapy Many patients will require to achieve the target blood pressure values, a combination of two or more substances. Frequent and evidence-based combinations are: ACE inhibitor + calcium channel blocker Sartans + Thiazide Diuretic These combinations make use of synergistic mechanisms of action, and can reduce the Rate of side-effects, since lower doses can be used. Perspectives and individual therapy The optimal choice of medication depends on individual factors, such as age, comorbidities (Diabetes, renal failure), ethnicity and compatibility. The latest guidelines recommend a patient-centred approach, in which the therapy is reviewed on a regular basis and the changing needs will be adjusted. In summary, modern antihypertensive drugs have improved the prognosis of patients with high blood pressure significantly. Through the targeted adjustment of the therapy and the use of combination products in a safe and effective blood pressure control value, which reduces the risk of cardiovascular events significantly.
