Selected socio-economic aspects of the risk of hypertension

Abstract
Hypertension (HTN) is one of the most common diseases and a risk factor leading to disabling and fatal complications. Large-scale epidemiological studies in all countries convincingly prove the need for early prevention and treatment of this pathological condition. In conditions of rapid urbanization, it is necessary to look for individual measures for the prevention and treatment. In addition to the main risk factors for HTN, such as low physical activity and increased body weight, smoking, alcohol abuse, as well as sex and age, there is convincing evidence that the level of education, economic status, professional affiliation, living conditions are also potential predictors of HTN. The review presents an analysis of the main socio-economic risk factors for HTN and the mechanisms of their influence on blood pressure. The article discusses each factor, its impact on blood pressure and the body as a whole, as well as approaches for the identification of these factors.
