Does hypertension confer a hypercoagulable state?

abstract：OBJECTIVE:The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence and risk factors of prehypertension (Pre-HTN) and hypertension (HTN) among the adult population of Iran. METHODS:A nationwide cross-sectional survey was conducted from December 2004 to February 2005. The selection was conducted by stratified probability cl...
