Hypothesis-generating for shared neurohormonal and genetic bases in cardiometabolic clustering; leaves open confirmation before any practice implications.
Highlights the synergistic pathophysiological mechanisms by which hypertension, dyslipidemia, and glucose intolerance contribute to atherosclerosis, emphasizing the need for comprehensive risk factor management.
Victor J. Dzau (1990) conducted a review in Atherosclerosis and Hypertension. Hypertension, dyslipidemia, and glucose intolerance act synergistically to increase coronary artery disease risk through mechanisms involving endothelial dysfunction and vascular cell proliferation.
