Obesity is a global health concern that is associated with high blood pressure and an increased risk for developing cardiovascular disease. The purpose of this study is to find out if the investigational drug angiotensin-(1-7) can improve cardiovascular health in people with obesity and high blood pressure.
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a autoimmune disease associated with an increased risk of developing coronary artery disease (CAD) and premature death,. Traditional CAD risk factors like hypertension (HTN) are both very common and poorly controlled among RA patients. Patients with RA face significant challenges in controlling HTN. The goal of …
Cataract surgery in elderly patients with controlled hypertension carries a risk of hemodynamic instability, particularly fluctuations in mean arterial blood pressure (MAP). Dexmedetomidine, a selective α2-adrenergic agonist, offers hemodynamic stabilization and sedation when administered intranasally and provides a simple and non-invasive premedication option. This study evaluates the effects of intranasal …
BACKGROUND: Physical exercise promotion is one of the main global goals of innumerous health and medical societies for preventing and managing noncommunicable chronic diseases (NCDs), being one of the main therapeutic for the patient with hypertension. Exercise in heated swimming pool has emerged as a potential alternative to physical exercise …
Insomnia is a common sleep disorder characterized by difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, or both, despite appropriate opportunities for getting sleep. Growing evidence has associated insomnia with prevalent and incidence of hypertension. However, the impact of the pharmacologic treatment of insomnia on office blood pressure (BP) and 24-h ambulatory BP …
Cardiovascular risk factors such as obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or smoking are associated with an increased risk of events such as myocardial infarction, stroke, or peripheral artery disease. Lifestyle and dietary measures, as well as pharmacological treatments, can help correct these risk factors. However, several studies have …
Our previous study (Huang HC, Pan HY, Wang TD, Circ Cardiovasc Interv 2023;16:e012779) demonstrated that when renal artery stimulation continues to trigger systolic blood pressure increases (\>=20 mmHg increase compared to baseline) after the initial procedure, patients show poor blood pressure reduction 6 months following renal denervation. Based on this …
Hypertension is associated with endothelial dysfunction, an early event in the development of cardiovascular disease. Endothelial extracellular vesicles (EEVs) have emerged as promising biomarkers of endothelial activation and vascular injury; however, their relationship with blood pressure and microvascular endothelial function in untreated hypertension remains insufficiently understood. This observational case-control study …
To determine if nifedipine and enalapril will have better blood pressure control in the postpartum setting compared to nifedipine and labetalol.
High blood pressure is a common medical condition that affects the body's arteries. It's also called hypertension. Untreated hypertension increases the risk of heart attack, stroke and other serious health problems. Exercise is a promising tool in hypertension management. Regular participation in exercise improves vascular health, heart and lung function, …
