Arterial hypertension and depression: personalize the treatment

Abstract

Abstract. More than half of patients with metabolic syndrome have signs of mild to moderate depression and increased anxiety. In patients with 3 degrees of obesity, manifestations of depression are most commonly manifested, which is probably due to social inadequate adaptation and may affect compliance. The main factors of the unfavorable course of arterial hypertension are the female sex with the elderly and the male gender of the young with the presence of depression and PT. It is necessary to consider the presence of anxiety and depressive disorders in the process of lifestyle correction and patient commitment to therapy.
