Q

Why patients with HTN present with blurred vision?

A

because Leakage of proteins causes edema and this causes haziness But If hemorrhage occurs, this lead to Blindness

Q

What factors control blood pressure?

A

1- cardiac output (SV) that correlates with Systolic BP
2- peripheral resistance (Tonicity of the total peripheral
resistance arterioles) that correlate with diastolic BP.

Q

How do the following endocrine factors affect blood pressure:
A. Renin?
B. Angiotensin?
C. Aldosterone?
D. ANP?
E. ADH?

A

A. Increases BP
B. Increases BP
C. Increases BP
(NOTE: renin, angiotensin, aldosterone work together β€”> sodium & water retention thus inc blood volume & pressure)

D. ANP: Decreases BP (vasoconstriction of vessels supplying glomeruli thus more sodium& water escape)

E. ADH: Increases BP (acts on BV -constrict- & kidneys)

Q

How is obesity risk factor hypertension?

A

Obesity: fats in the connective tissue surrounding the blood vessel will compress the vessel causing constriction, because of that losing weight lowers blood pressure
Mostly because of smoking, obesity environmental factors

Q

What is secondary HTN?

A

There is a disease or pathology that cause HTN, mostly renal problems, also Heart problems, vessel problems e.g. the shape or structure aorta is not normal so there is a constriction, polyarthritis nodosa (related to vasculitis)

35
Q

Malignant HTN (slide)

A
36
Q

What are the histopathological and Tissue changes in hypertension?

A

β€’ Thickening of the arterioles.
β€’ Thinning of the arterioles.
β€’ Necrosis of the wall of the arterioles.
β€’ Hyaline changes of the muscle coat of the arterioles.
β€’ Atherosclerosis of the arterioles.
β€’ Aneurism or dilatation of the arterioles.
β€’ Thrombosis of the lumen of the arterioles.

37
Q

Changes are basically due to …………. = pathological changes in the arteriolar wall.

arteriolopathy

38

Q

Types of arteriosclerosis?

A

Q

What is Pathogenesis of Hyaline arteriolosclerosis?

A

Pathogenesis: Chronic hemodynamic stress of the hypertension leads to leakage of plasma proteins across the vascular wall through the endothelial layer and excess extracellular matrix is also formed by smooth muscle cells.

Q

Hyaline arteriolosclerosis occurs in ….. ?

A

Occurs in: benign nephrosclerosis, arterial narrowing impairs renal blood flow, with loss of nephrons.
