FACTORS OF ARTERIAL HYPERTENSION PROGRESSION IN PATIENTS IN COMORBIDITY WITH TYPE 2 DIABETES MELLITUS

Аннотация

Patients with diabetes and hypertension are at increased risk of macrovascular and microvascular complications. To prevent and slow the progression of these complications, it is necessary to target multiple risk factors. It has been demonstrated that optimizing the control of glycemia, lipids and blood pressure improves patient outcomes. The benefits of optimal treatment of dyslipidemia with statins may become evident within a few months in high-risk patients, while significant reductions in cardiovascular risk from hyperglycemia and hypertension control develop over several years.
