  Plasma Biomarkers for Detecting Organ Damage Induced by Hypertension: A Comprehensive Review
  Author(s): Tungurasekula Kim*
  
  Hypertension, a prevalent cardiovascular condition, significantly contributes to organ damage, affecting vital organs such as the heart, kidneys and brain. The early detection of hypertension-mediated organ damage is crucial for timely intervention and prevention of further complications. Plasma biomarkers have emerged as valuable tools in this context, offering a non-invasive method to monitor and assess the extent of organ damage. This comprehensive review examines the current state of research on plasma biomarkers associated with hypertension-induced organ damage. It highlights the roles of various biomarkers, including those related to inflammation, oxidative stress and endothelial dysfunction, in the detection and progression of organ damage. The review also discusses the potential for integrating these biomarkers into clinical practice for improved diagno.. Read More»
