High blood pressure, artwork
High blood pressure. Artwork of some of the effects of high blood pressure (hypertension). This can be caused by an excess of calcium ions (green, lower centre), which causes contraction of the blood vessels (upper right). Hypertension can cause kidney failure (upper left) and can contribute to atherosclerosis. Hypertension can be treated with calcium channel blocking drugs. These interfere with the entry of calcium ions into smooth muscle cells. This impairs contraction of the muscle fibres and causes relaxation of muscle in blood vessel walls, thus reducing the blood pressure

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork titled "High Blood Pressure" captures the intricate effects of hypertension on the human body. The print showcases a range of visual elements that depict the consequences of this condition. At the lower center, an excess of calcium ions is represented in green, symbolizing one of the primary causes for blood vessel contraction shown in the upper right corner. The detrimental impact of high blood pressure becomes evident as we observe kidney failure depicted in the upper left section. Additionally, it highlights how hypertension can contribute to atherosclerosis, further emphasizing its severity and potential complications. However, there is hope for those affected by this condition through medical intervention. Calcium channel blocking drugs offer a treatment option by hindering calcium ion entry into smooth muscle cells. This interference impairs muscle fiber contraction and induces relaxation within blood vessel walls, effectively reducing blood pressure levels. Through this thought-provoking illustration created by Science Photo Library, viewers gain insight into both the destructive nature of high blood pressure and possible solutions to combat it. It serves as a reminder that understanding and managing our health conditions are crucial steps towards leading healthier lives.
