Abstract

The outcome of treatment in elderly hypertensives is examined in six major randomized controlled trials. Thiazide diuretics were first-or second-line drugs in each, and the development of a national database on normative blood pressure levels throughout childhood has contributed to the recognition of elevated blood pressure in children and adolescents. The epidemic of childhood obesity, the risk of developing left ventricular hypertrophy, and evidence of the early.

Keywords: hypertension, Thiazide diuretics, hypertrophy
