The relationship between left ventricular diastolic function and the autonomic nervous function in elderly patients with mild-to-moderate essential hypertension
Abstract:Objective: To investigate the relationship between left ventricular diastolic function (LVDF) and autonomic nervous function in elderly patients with mild-to-moderate essential hypertension. Design: A total of 146 elderly patients with mild-to-moderate essential hypertension were enrolled in our hospital from January, 2015 to October, 2017. Blood pressure was recorded, and biochemical indexes and the N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic preptide (NT-proBNP) were investigated. 2-dimensional echocadiolography was us… Show more
