Difference between Endothelial dysfunction and Hypertension

Endothelial dysfunction vs. Hypertension

In vascular diseases, endothelial dysfunction is a systemic pathological state of the endothelium. Hypertension (HTN or HT), also known as high blood pressure (HBP), is a long-term medical condition in which the blood pressure in the arteries is persistently elevated.

Similarities between Endothelial dysfunction and Hypertension

Endothelial dysfunction and Hypertension have 8 things in common (in Unionpedia): ACE inhibitor, Angiotensin II receptor blocker, Arteriole, Artery, Atherosclerosis, Coronary artery disease, Hypercholesterolemia, Vascular resistance.

ACE inhibitor

An angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitor (ACE inhibitor) is a pharmaceutical drug used primarily for the treatment of hypertension (elevated blood pressure) and congestive heart failure.

Angiotensin II receptor blocker

Angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs), also known as angiotensin II receptor antagonists, AT1 receptor antagonists or sartans, are a group of pharmaceuticals that modulate the renin–angiotensin system.

Arteriole

An arteriole is a small-diameter blood vessel in the microcirculation that extends and branches out from an artery and leads to capillaries.

Artery

An artery (plural arteries) is a blood vessel that takes blood away from the heart to all parts of the body (tissues, lungs, etc).

Atherosclerosis

Atherosclerosis is a disease in which the inside of an artery narrows due to the build up of plaque.

Coronary artery disease

Coronary artery disease (CAD), also known as ischemic heart disease (IHD), refers to a group of diseases which includes stable angina, unstable angina, myocardial infarction, and sudden cardiac death.

Hypercholesterolemia

Hypercholesterolemia, also called high cholesterol, is the presence of high levels of cholesterol in the blood.

Vascular resistance

Vascular resistance is the resistance that must be overcome to push blood through the circulatory system and create flow.

Endothelial dysfunction and Hypertension Comparison

Endothelial dysfunction has 43 relations, while Hypertension has 243. As they have in common 8, the Jaccard index is 2.80% = 8 / (43 + 243).
