Some of the leading scientists in the field of hypertension
accepted an invi- tation to actively participate in an
international symposium on primary hypertension. Scientists from 13
countries - from western, southern, and eastern Europe, Australia,
and the United States - were present. The meeting was held in
Cologne in March 1985. After previous meetings and workshops at
Titisee in the Black Forest and several symposia on the renin-
angiotensin-aldosterone system here in Cologne, this symposium on
prima- ry hypertension was organized in order to induce and to
stimulate critical discussion on the basic pathogenetic mechanisms
involved and the recently established therapeutic implications.
Numerous studies have been based on the concept that the elevation
in blood pressure is mediated by several vasopressor substances.
For this reason the renin-angiotensin system has been considered to
be the essential endocrine mechanism involved in developing and
sustaining arterial hyper- tension. Other vasopressor factors, such
as catecholamines, vasopressin, and serotonin, have been studied
extensively and were assumed to play additional parts in blood
pressure regulation. However, several other ap- proaches have been
initiated in recent years.
