Hypertension and Heart Failure Epidemiology, Mechanisms and Treatment /

This book explains how hypertension affects 20-50% of the adult population in developed countries. Heart failure is the result of the hypertension's effects on the heart and it represents a growing public health problem. In this context the international scientific community is continuously str...
