Can Strict Control of Renalase Present a New Treatment Alternative in Regulating Blood Pressure?
Journal Title: Journal of Cardiovascular Medicine and Cardiology - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
Blood pressure is the pressure the blood in arteries applies on vessels. Abnormal blood pressure is a major public health problem commonly encountered in the population with normal blood pressure and intensive care patients. The two types of action that the heart performs are pumping blood and relaxing. The pressure exerted when the heart is pumping blood is the “systolic” blood pressure, and the pressure applied during the relaxation of the heart is the “diastolic” pressure.
