The authors studied the risk factors of hypertension in women treated at the outpatient postmenopausal care unit in the town Csongrad. Anamnestic data, serum parameters were compared in the hypertension and in the normotension groups. 40% of women with hypertension and 35% of women with hypercholesterinaemia have been discovered for the first time at the postmenopausal care unit. The authors emphasize the important role of the postmenopausal care unit in screening of some risk factors of hypertension--overweight, smoking, hypercholesterinaemia--and in screening of the hypertension itself. |
