[Title] => 13-M Pinoys have hypertension
[Summary] => Some 13 million Filipinos are suffering from hypertension but only half of them know about the illness, doctors from the Philippine Society of Hypertension (PSH) said yesterday.
"Hypertension can lead to various illnesses but it is oftentimes ignored or unnoticed. Less than 10 percent of hypertension cases are adequately treated or controlled," said Dr. Gregorio Patacsil Jr., former PSH president.

[Title] => Heart disease: Blame it on ‘SEX-HDL’
[Summary] => With all the drugs available to combat the risks of heart disease, why is it still the leading cause of death in the world, especially in developing countries like the Philippines?
According to heart experts, this is because of SEX-HDL. The antidote: TLC and some drugs.

[Title] => Slaying the atherosclerotic dragon
[Summary] => If nothing is done, we have to brace ourselves for a cardiovascular epidemic in the next two decades. Even teenagers will probably be having heart attacks and strokes already. Children will be taking pills to control their high blood pressure. We can laugh at this scenario now, but if we don’t take it seriously, wait another 10 to 20 years, and see if we can still afford to laugh.

[Title] => Patient compliance: The ‘missing link’
[Summary] => Despite all the medical breakthroughs yielding new drugs that are more effective and associated with less side-effects, effective control of cardiovascular diseases appears to be an elusive dream.
"No drug can ever be effective unless they are taken religiously," says Dr. Gregorio Patacsil Jr., president of the Philippine Society of Hypertension. "It may be the ‘missing link’ why some medical problems are not adequately controlled."
