Although the influence and impact of hypertension is a well-known, the adequate control rate is low and some hypertension associated disease still lack adequate medical treatment. Successful treatment of raised blood pressure has proven elusive despite availability of various drugs, combination pharmaceutical products, and resources to assist patients’ adherence and lifestyle changes. Recently developed endovascular catheter technology enables selective denervation of the human kidney for better treatment of resistant hypertension. On the other hand, there was over half of patient with heart failure have diastolic heart failure (DHF). Hypertension could result in left ventricular hypertrophy and further diastolic dysfunction. Large randomized trials in selected patients with HF have led to major advances in the medical treatment of systolic HF. On the contrary, few randomized trials have been carried out with regard to medical management of DHF, despite its high prevalence and mortality. Therefore, treatment of DHF is still empirical and there is a scarcity of evidence-based recommendation towards the disease. On the other hand, dyslipidemia has long been recognized to be the most important risk factor in the development of atherosclerosis in human beings. In Taiwan, the rates for hypercholesterolemia (^250mg/dl) were 4.3% and 5.5% in 1970; 12.99% in 1980; and 17.1% in 1990. Those for hypertriglyceridemia (^200 mg/dl) were 6.5% and 11.1% in 1970 and 13.0% in 1990. Low serum HDL-C was an isolated and independent coronary risk factor among a good number of Taiwanese people. Lowering of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) with statins has in the last decade become part of the standard treatment regimen in patients with dyslipidemia. However, most embarrassing, is the insufficient data for clinical use in Taiwan. It is necessary to have rationalized and balanced guideline for the management of dyslipidemia in Taiwan, based on our local epidemiological, clinical and basic research data. Because all these trials were conducted in Caucasians and no large-scaled end-point research about the lipid lowering therapy (LLT) was published in Asians before, this registry study attempts to define the status of lipid lowering therapy in Taiwan and the effect of LLT on CVD morbidity and mortality in a large population of patients receiving primary or secondary prevention therapy. The medications will only depend on the decision made by the primary care physicians. The patient or physician can decide to be withdrawn from this registry at any time because of any reason. The lipid profile change, myopathy, or liver enzyme change after the LLT will also be recorded.To achieve the above goals, it is important to conduct multicenter trials on the treatment of hypertension and hyperlipidemia associated diseases that take the advantage of more efficient screening and enrollment of cases. Specifically, we can prospectively setup a biospecimen bank with clarified disease phenotype through the conduction of these trials. The biospecimen bank and the clinical information collected from this study could also provide a platform for further investigation of cardiac diseases. We would then coordinate 21 large medical centers in Taiwan and forming a hypertension/hyperlipidemia Consortium and biospecimen banks, recruiting patients with hypertension, resistant hypertension, hyperlipidemia and related cardiac disease. Through the platform, we would like to promote and attract most important worldwide and domestic clinical trial into the consortium.(TR12) Taiwan Clinical Trial Consortium for Cardiovascular Diseases (IV)=台灣心血管病臨床試驗聯盟(IV)
