Abstract
Within Asia, religions and cultures differ, and economic development differs from region to region. However, despite this diversity, things will not progress efficiently or in a certain direction unless certain rules are in place. The global burden of hypertension has already been acknowledged. The reduction in blood pressure significantly reduces cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Half of the world's population is concentrated in Asia, and this proportion is expected to continue to increase. As the population ages, the number of people suffering from hypertension is also expected to increase. It is critical to address hypertension in Asia. To do so, it is necessary to establish a common direction for the control of hypertension within the Asian region. Since last year, Japanese Society of Hypertension has performed meeting and discussion with 14 Asian countries/regions to conquer hypertension in Asia. In this session, we will present the agreement to overcome hypertension in Asian population, and representatives from each country/region will make comments. In addition, this agreement will be published in Hypertension Research on the same day.
