Treatment of hypertension and its effect on cardiovascular risk factors: data from the Framingham Heart Study.

abstract：:Echocardiography and Doppler ultrasound are useful in evaluating a variety of pathological conditions affecting the pericardium. Cardiac tamponade results in right atrial collapse and right ventricular diastolic collapse detectable by echocardiography. These echocardiographic signs have a high degree of sensitivity an...
