Sympathetic nervous system: role in hypertension and in chronic kidney disease.

Current opinion in nephrology and hypertension - 1 Jan 2012

Grassi Guido, Bertoli Silvio, Seravalle Gino

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: A number of cardiovascular disease have been shown to be characterized by a marked increase in sympathetic drive to the heart and peripheral circulation. This is the case for essential hypertension, congestive heart failure, obesity, metabolic syndrome and chronic renal failure. This review focuses on the most recent findings documenting the role of sympathetic neural factors in the development...
