Atrial remodelling in hypertensive heart disease: role of Na+ homeostasis and contractility

Arterial hypertension causes hypertensive heart disease. Constant mechanical stress and activation of neurohormonal systems cause structural and functional changes in the myocardium termed “remodelling”. Remodelling is beneficial in the beginning of the disease development; however, with time it bec...
