Persistent or intermittent high blood pressure in which BP is > 140/90 mmHg
(a)
Increase CNS activity could raise BP by increasing renin via the release of cathecolamines, or by causing veno-arterial constriction.
Neural theory
Sympathetic Nervous System Activation Theory
Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System
Vasopressor
Severe hypertension with acute impairment of an organ system (especially the central nervous system, cardiovascular system and/or the renal system) and the possibility of irreversible organ-damage.

Drugs that increase the excretion of sodium and water from the kidney
(a)
Block the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II in the lungs:
(a)
Selectively bind the angiotensin II receptors.
(a)
Prevent the movement of calcium into cardiac and smooth muscle cells when the cells are stimulated
(a)
Produce relaxation of the vascular smooth muscle, decreasing the peripheral resistance and reducing the BP.
(a)
Characterized by recurring inflammation of the intermediate and small arteries and veins of the extremities

(a)
Either a causative factor or aggravating factor of Buerger's disease:
(a)
Found in individuals over 50 years old, most often in men, and predominantly affects the lower extremities:
