1. Introduction Hypertension (HTN) is defined as a pathological disorder that is characterized by elevated blood pressure (BP), i.e., the systolic around 140–150 or above [1]. The World Health Organization (WHO) has identified HTN as one of the leading causes of mortality and morbidity globally, accounting for nearly 9 million deaths yearly [2]. Substantial scientific studies have linked high blood pressure (BP) to various disorders, such as cardiovascular disorders and heart failure [3].
