Changes of endothelial function indices and pro-inflammatory cytokines level in comorbid course of essential hypertension

Abstract

It should be noted that the peculiarity of internal pathology at present time is its comorbidity, besides essential hypertension (EH) sintropy worsens disease on the whole. Combination of EH with duodenal peptic ulcer (DPU) is frequent. It can complicate diagnostics, modify clinical symptoms and worsen treatment quality.
