Research progress on association between Turner syndrome and high blood pressure
Turner syndrome is a sex chromosome disease with a female clinical phenotype.Most pa-tients are diagnosed in childhood or adolescence because of growth delays,and a small number of patients are diagnosed due to TS-related diseases.Women with Turner syndrome can develop hyper-tension in childhood and adolescence,and the prevalence of hypertension increases with age.The pathogenesis is unclear and may be multifactorial,similar to essential hypertension.In this review arti-cle,we explore possible mechanisms,blood pres-sure management,and treatment recommenda-tions for hypertension in patients with Turner syn-drome.
