港大深圳医院发现过去三年里该院收治的高血压病患中一成多患有难治型高血压。请看本报昨日的报道：

    A Shenzhen hospital found 12.5 percent of the high blood pressure patients it has received in the past three years suffered from resistant hypertension, a type that does not respond to treatment.

    Yiu K. H., a consultant doctor at the University of Hong Kong Shenzhen Hospital, said the number of resistant hypertension patients is rising due to factors including an aging population, obesity and chronic diseases.

    报道中的resistant hypertension就是“难治型高血压”，这里的resistant指drug-resistant，就是“耐药的、对药物治疗不敏感

    的”，hypertension就是“高血压”，医生对这类高血压的定义是“三种药物联合治疗不能见效的高血压”。
