Given the increasing prevalence of hypertension in children and adolescents, this book represents an important and useful tool to address what has become a significant public health issue. It covers a diverse range of topics, from advances in the definition of hypertension and the identification of new risk factors, to current treatment strategies. The book also presents an overview of the latest findings, including the clinical significance of isolated systolic hypertension (ISH) in youth, the importance of out-of-office and central blood pressure measurement, new methods for assessing vascular phenotypes, and clustering of CV risk factors. Gathering contributions by international experts and pursuing a practice-oriented approach, the book offers a valuable tool for cardiologists, pediatricians and nephrologists, as well as general practitioners.Updates in Hypertension and Cardiovascular Protection,2366-4606CardiologyPediatricsNephrologyGeneral practice (Medicine)Cardiologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H33037Pediatricshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H49006Nephrologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H33126General Practice / Family Medicinehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H24003Cardiology.Pediatrics.Nephrology.General practice (Medicine).Cardiology.Pediatrics.Nephrology.General Practice / Family Medicine.618.92132618.92132Lurbe Emparedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtWühl Elkeedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910349557903321Hypertension in Children and Adolescents1736107UNINA
