Quantile regression for mixed models with an application to examine blood pressure trends in China [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Statistics 2015, Vol. 9, No. 3, 1226-1246, 2015
Cardiometabolic diseases have substantially increased in China in the past 20 years and blood pressure is a primary modifiable risk factor. Using data from the China Health and Nutrition Survey, we examine blood pressure trends in China from 1991 to 2009, with a concentration on age cohorts and urbanicity.

THE BLOOD-PRESSURE IN PNEUMONIA [PDF]

open access: greenArchives of Internal Medicine, 1914
For decades clinicians have believed that many of the grave symptoms and a large number of the deaths in pneumonia were directly due to failure of the circulation. In 1889 Romberg1and his associates studied the problem and reached the conclusion that, while fatal circulatory failure did occur in rabbits inoculated with lethal doses of pneumococci, the ...

BLOOD-PRESSURE IN TUBERCULOSIS [PDF]

open access: greenArchives of Internal Medicine, 1911
The presence of the tubercle bacillus, a local injury of tissue and diminished bodily resistance are accepted as a necessary trio of conditions which determine tuberculous infection. Clinicians for many centuries have recognized the third factor as important, while the first two have been accepted only in the present age of exact pathology.

Interaction between slow wave sleep and elevated office blood pressure in non-hypertensive obstructive sleep apnea patients: a cross-sectional study

open access: yesBlood Pressure, 2023
Purpose: Reduced slow wave sleep (SWS) has been linked to hypertension in some studies. The aim of the study is to investigate the association between SWS and office blood pressure (BP) in non-hypertensive obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).

The associations of self-reported salt-intake and spot urine sodium with home blood pressure

open access: yesBlood Pressure, 2023
Purpose: A limited number of studies have suggested a nonlinear association between spot urine (SU) sodium concentration and office blood pressure (BP). We examined how SU sodium concentration and dietary salt obtained from a food frequency questionnaire
