Pathogenesis of hypertension in overweight and obese patients is to be studied due to the great theoretical and practical importance. The additional mechanisms directly involved in the development of hypertension in subjects with abdominal obesity have been determined. Functional disorders of adipose tissue were shown to play an important role in the development of hypertension in obese patients, and in some cases adiposopathy can be the primary cause of hypertension. Renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system was shown to change signifi cantly in obesity. Understanding the causes and mechanisms of hypertension in patients with abdominal obesity is of particular interest because it allows more focused prevention and treatment of the disease.
