Effect of age, hypertension and arteriosclerosis on the chemical composition of human arterial smooth muscle.
Historically, it is of interest that Bright (30) in 1836 was probably the first to recognize the existence of hypertension in man. He had no instrument for measuring blood pressure and based his deductions on the gross pathological changes observed in patients dying of dropsy. As a result of the dev...

Historically, it is of interest that Bright (30) in 1836 was probably the first to recognize the existence of hypertension in man. He had no instrument for measuring blood pressure and based his deductions on the gross pathological changes observed in patients dying of dropsy. As a result of the development of instruments for measuring blood pressure and improvements in microscopic technique, correlations were made between elevation of blood pressure, thickening of the walls of the arterioles and hypertrophy of the left ventricle of the heart. |
