Association of family history with incidence and gestational hypertension outcomes of preeclampsia
Background: Gestational hypertension and preeclampsia are hypertensive disorders related to pregnancy that can cause maternal morbidity and fetal growth retardation. The association of these disorders with family history remains unclear. Objectives: To examine the degree of family aggregation of…

Arterial stiffness is associated with cardiovascular and cancer mortality in cancer patients: Insight from NHANESIII
Background: Cancer survivors are at greater risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD) than second malignancy, resulting in a decreased quality of life and increased cost of care. Additional knowledge of CVD prevention by identifying possible risk factors has clinical relevance. Our main objective was…

Factors associated with antihypertensive treatment intensification and deintensification in older outpatients
Background: New hypertension performance measures encourage more intensive treatment in older adults. Treatment intensification includes starting new medications and increasing the dose of old ones. Medication dose is particularly important to older adults, given their vulnerability to dose-related…

Reduced global longitudinal strain at rest and inadequate blood pressure response during exercise treadmill testing in male heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia patients
Background: Heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (heFH) is a genetic disorder leading to premature coronary artery disease (CAD). We hypothesized that the subclinical pathophysiologic consequences of hypercholesterolemia may be detected before the occurrence of clinically overt CAD by stress…

COVID-19 morbidity and mortality associated with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blockers use among 14,129 patients with hypertension from a US integrated healthcare system
Objective: Although recent evidence suggests no increased risk of severe COVID-19 outcomes associated with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) use, the relationship is less clear among patients with hypertension and diverse racial/ethnic groups…

Risk and clinical outcomes of acute myocardial infarction and acute ischemic stroke following gram-negative bloodstream infection
Objectives: This retrospective cohort study examines incidence, risk factors, and clinical outcomes of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and acute ischemic stroke (AIS) within one year of gram-negative bloodstream infection (GN-BSI) based on predefined clinical criteria. Methods: Hospitalized…

American, European and international hypertension guidelines: Time to shake hands?
Background: Following evidence-based medicine through guidelines is the first step to successfully treat hypertension and prevent cardiovascular outcomes. Methods: This study compares the recommendations of the most recent American College of Cardiology (ACC)/American Heart Association (AHA)…

Strategies to improve blood pressure control: A step forward to winning the battle
Objective: Hypertension represents a common risk factor for all major cardiovascular diseases. The issue of inappropriate blood pressure control in the hypertensive population is a worldwide still unsolved problem, with heavy consequences on the health care systems. A call to action is required to…

The effect of remote ischaemic conditioning on blood pressure response: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Background: Previous work has evaluated the effect of remote ischaemic conditioning (RIC) in a number of clinical conditions (e.g. cardiac surgery and acute kidney injury), but only one analysis has examined blood pressure (BP) changes. While individual studies have reported the effects of acute…

The area under curve for time-course analysis parameters is associated with abdominal aortic aneurysms and the severity of peripheral artery disease in men
Background: Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) and peripheral artery disease (PAD) are associated with vascular endothelial dysfunction. To date, flow-mediated vasodilatation (FMD) and nitroglycerin-mediated vasodilatation (NMD) have been used to evaluate vascular function. Recently, parameters of…

Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring and blood pressure control in patients with coronary artery disease—A randomized controlled trial
Background: Office blood pressure (OBP) is used for diagnosing and treating hypertension but ambulatory blood pressure measurement (ABPM) associates more accurately with patient outcome. BP control is important in secondary prevention but it is unknown whether the use of APBM improves BP-control in…

Initial orthostatic hypotension and orthostatic intolerance symptom prevalence in older adults: A systematic review
Background: Initial orthostatic hypotension is a clinically relevant syndrome in older adults which has been associated with symptoms of orthostatic intolerance. The aim of this systematic review was to determine the prevalence of orthostatic intolerance symptoms in older adults with initial…

Myocardial strain impairment, heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia and systemic arterial hypertension: Is there a link?
Dyslipidemia is known as a strong risk factor for premature atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and increased morbidity and mortality and can have an adverse effect on left ventricular function due to direct or indirect macrovascular and/or microvascular damage. Speckle-tracking echocardiography…
