Is there a relationship between high blood pressure and thick blood lipids?

Hypertension and dyslipidemia are not related. Hypertension refers to the increased pressure in the patient’s blood vessels, which is the pressure of the blood in the blood vessels on the walls of the vessels. Lipid thickening refers to the increase of fat in the blood, and the patient’s cholesterol or triglycerides are elevated, which can lead to lipid thickening. Although there is no causal relationship between the two, if a patient with hypertension has thickened blood lipids and elevated blood fats, the progression of atherosclerosis is often more serious or faster. Patients with hypertension must control their blood lipids, because the damage to blood vessels in hypertensive patients is often more serious, prone to coronary heart disease, chronic kidney disease and cerebral infarction, and controlling blood lipids is the key to preventing complications of hypertension.
