The association of diabetes mellitus and hypertension has been well
known for a long time. However, the important impact of
hypertension on the development of chronic complications of
diabetes and on the prognosis of the diabetic patient has only
recently been realized. The increasing number of patients with
endstage diabetic nephropathy who need regular dialysis or renal
transplantation reflects only one important aspect of this problem.
As new targets for the treatment of hypertension were considered,
it became evident, that drug treatment of hypertension in diabetics
must take side effects into account which may be negligible in the
nondiabetic patient. Basic research has granted much new insight
into the mechanisms which function to link diabetes, kidney
function, hypertension, and vascular disease. As a result of the
high specialisation in research, such new information diffuses only
slowly out of the circles of experts into clinical practice.
Therefore, it was a most rewarding initiative of the Bayer Company
to sponsor a conference which aimed at a mutual exchange of ideas
between clinicians and researchers who are experts in either
hypertension or diabetes.
