Antihypertensive drug treatment in elderly hypertensive subjects: evidence of protection.

abstract：:Hyperinsulinemia, lipid abnormalities, and impaired fibrinolytic capacity may accompany hypertension, and comprise the metabolic cardiovascular syndrome. They are all independent risk factors for coronary artery disease. Lifestyle modifications can reduce the coronary artery risk. Physical activity has been shown to i...
