http://www.tcmtreatment.com/images/diseases/hypertension.htm

Extractions: Systemic arterial hypertension is defined as elevated arterial blood pressure, with systolic pressure over 160 mmHG and /or diastolic pressure over 95mmHG. Blood pressure that is consistently 140 mmHG systolic and/or 90mmHg diastolic or higher is considered border line hypertensions. Hypertension is usually of two types: primary and secondary. Essential, or primary, hypertension is systemic arterial hypertension of unknown cause; 90 to 95 percent of systemic hypertension cases fall under this category. Secondary hypertension is elevated systemic blood pressure of known cause; five to ten percent of systemic hypertension cases are of this type. In this article, we discuss only the traditional diagnosis and treatment of essential hypertension. In traditional Chinese medicine, essential hypertension is included in the syndromes of headache and dizziness due to interior injury. Etiology and Pathogenesis Hyperactivity of liver-yang The liver is related to mental activities, such as thinking and worrying. Mental upset or a fit of anger may cause hyperactivity of liver yang, and as a result, headache or dizziness occurs. On the other hand, excessive liver yang turns into fire, which in turn, injuries liver yin and eventually leads to hyperactivity of liver yang.

http://www.msd.com.ph/healthcare/hypertension.htm

Extractions: Blood travels through your body by flowing through arteries, carrying oxygen-rich blood from your heart to other tissues and organs. Once oxygen is delivered to your tissues and organs, oxygen-poor blood travels back to your heart through your veins. Your heart then pumps this blood into your lungs, where it is replenished with oxygen. After returning to your heart, the blood is pumped out into your arteries again. Blood pressure is the force exerted by blood against artery walls as it circulates through your body. This is what is measured at your doctor's office. Your body monitors and adjusts blood pressure through a complex interaction between your heart, blood vessels (arteries and veins), nervous system, kidneys, and several hormones, in response to various stimuli.

UCSD Researchers Identify Gene Pathy Causing Pulmonary Hypertension
EMBARGOED by NEW ENGLAND JOURNAL OF MEDICINE For 5 pm EST Wednesday, February 5,2003. UCSD Researchers Identify Gene Pathway Causing Pulmonary hypertension.
http://health.ucsd.edu/news/2003/02_05_Thistle.html

Extractions: Causing Pulmonary Hypertension Researchers at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) School of Medicine have identified an over-active gene and the molecular events it triggers to cause acquired cases of pulmonary hypertension, a form of high blood pressure in the lungs that kills about one percent of the population each year. The findings, published in the February 6, 2003 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine , offer the first specific molecular targets for development of new therapies. "Although a small subset of patients benefit from surgery to remove blood clots from the lungs, currently the only treatment for most types of pulmonary hypertension is lung transplantation," said the study's senior author Patricia Thistlethwaite, M.D., Ph.D., an assistant professor in the UCSD Division of Cardiothoracic Surgery. The researchers found that a gene called angiopoietin-1, which is normally involved in smooth-muscle growth in newly developing embryonic blood vessels, somehow gets inappropriately turned on in adulthood. As angiopoietin-1 aberrantly over-expresses itself, it initiates a molecular chain of events that causes muscle cell proliferation within the lining of the lung's blood vessels. As the vessel wall thickness grows, the small lung arteries become progressively narrowed and blocked. Almost all patients with pulmonary hypertension acquire the disease from diverse causes such as congenital heart defects, autoimmune disease, left-sided heart failure, blood clots in the lungs, drug interactions or vascular diseases. A handful of patients inherit a rare form of the disease from a mutation in a gene called bone morphogenetic protein receptor type2 (BMPR2).

Extractions: Unfortunately, a person with high blood pressure usually sees or feels no clearly identifiable hypertension symptoms. That's why high blood pressure is such a dangerous condition. Patients can think that they have perfectly normal blood pressure until hypertension does its damage, and they're suddenly confronted with heart problems, or even strokes.
COR PULMONALE IN SYSTEMIC LUPUS ERYTHEMATOSUS: A CASE REPORT AND REVIEW OF THE L
Reports a case of SLE who presented with severe pulmonary hypertension and cor pulmonale without any evidence of parenchymal lung disease.

Extractions: Division of Cardiology, Department of Medicine (38), College of Medicine, King Saud University, P.O. Box 2925, Riyadh 11461, Saudi Arabia. Accepted for publication 10 August 1994. Pulmonary hypertension is rare in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) although pulmonary involvement occurs in about 50%. Pulmonary hypertension without obvious pulmonary infiltration is even rarer, the mechanism of which is unclear. We report here a case of SLE who presented with severe pulmonary hypertension and cor pulmonale without any evidence of parenchymal lung disease. The patient was a 19-year-old Saudi female who was admitted to King Khalid University Hospital, Riyadh with a two-year history of dyspnea, easy fatigability, palpitations, anorexia, loss of weight, dry cough and episodic attacks of fever every three to four months with night sweats for the last two years. Five days prior to admission she developed pain in various large and small joints with swelling in interphalangeal and right wrist joints and described features of Raynaud's phenomenon. Chest roentgenogram showed cardiomegaly with prominent pulmonary conus. No lung infiltrate was noticed. High resolution computed tomography (CT) scan was not done. Ultrasound of the abdomen revealed an enlarged liver with mild ascites. Pulmonary function test revealed a restrictive pattern with decreased diffusion lung capacity. Ventilation/perfusion scan of the lungs did not reveal any evidence of pulmonary embolism. Cross-sectional echocardiography and Doppler studies revealed significant enlargement of the right atrium and right ventricle with dilated pulmonary artery and moderate degree of pericardial effusion. Moderate tricuspid incompetence was also detected.

Extractions: Fair enough; a bit of a surprise maybe, but okay, what do you do about it? And then he tells you. You've been having enough trouble trying to quit smoking, and now he wants you to lose weight (try doing that when you're trying to kick nicotine), follow a strict hypertension diet, start exercising, and learn about stress management. To top it all off, he wants you to keep alcohol consumption to moderate levels. High blood pressure can wreak havoc on your health over time. Some of hypertension's more common complications include: Other Health Sites Your first thought might be that normal blood pressure and the joys of life are mutually exclusive. Your second is likely to be disbelief. How are you supposed to do all that? You don't want a heart attack, but if you try doing all this at once you'll need some stress management to avoid one. Your blood pressure went up just listening to all that! The key to success is to start with one thing at a time. Ask your doctor which change you should start with, and remember that these lifestyle changes overlap. A hypertension diet cuts out a lot of fat and salt, which leads to weight loss. Weight loss leads to more energy, which makes it easier to exercise, which makes it easier to lose weight.
