A study on malignant hypertension causes and organ damage
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at people who have had a severe, sudden rise in blood pressure (malignant hypertension) that caused damage to organs like the eyes, kidneys, or heart. Researchers want to understand what leads to this dangerous condition and why it affects different organs.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had a very high blood pressure emergency (malignant hypertension) with severe eye damage from the high pressure.
- You also had sudden damage to at least one other organ (like kidney, heart, or brain) because of the high blood pressure.
- You are already part of the HAMA study group.
- You are not on long-term dialysis.
- You agree to have extra blood samples taken for research (the HAMA biobank).

This trial looks at a health-care plan for people with malignant hypertension (very high blood pressure causing emergency eye and organ damage). It may help doctors better organize treatment and follow-up after this high-risk diagnosis.
This trial is studying how changes in blood pressure affect the tiny blood vessels in the back of the eye (retina). It may help people with high blood pressure understand how treatment impacts their eye health.
This trial tests a new blood-based test that may help identify if your high blood pressure is caused by a hormone problem (endocrine hypertension). If you have difficult-to-treat high blood pressure or other signs of a hormone issue, this study could help find the root cause.
This study looks at new ways to measure heart structure and heart pumping function in people with high blood pressure. The results may help doctors better understand heart changes over time and improve care.
This study looks at how certain environmental factors may affect a substance that controls blood pressure. It aims to understand high blood pressure better, which might help guide future treatments.
This study is looking at why some people develop high blood pressure during their dialysis sessions. Your participation could help doctors better manage this condition in the future.
