What is the harm of hypertensive disease?

Hypertension is a major cause harm brain, heart, kidney and other vital organs damage. (1) left ventricular hypertrophy: As the long-term maintenance of blood pressure in a higher level, increasing heart load factors and other body fluids due to the common role, early in compensatory left ventricular hypertrophy, with the development of heart disease continued expansion, the last possible heart failure and serious arrhythmias. (2) Atherosclerosis: long-term high blood pressure may promote atherosclerosis formation, in particular the development of coronary sclerosis. (3) cerebrovascular accident: long-term high blood pressure, bleeding small arteriosclerosis easily lead to cerebral thrombosis, or the formation of cramps. (4) kidney damage: The goals and renal artery spasm of small ball, sclerosis, kidney degeneration lead to ischemia, hypoxia, renal parenchymal fibrosis, hypertension associated with a more advanced renal dysfunction. (5) retinal function by late: increased blood pressure makes long-term retinal artery caused by a glass-like change. Coronary heart disease and stroke is the most serious complications of hypertension.
