Simultaneous double arm automated blood pressure measurement for the screening of subjects with potential vascular disease: a community study

Blood Pressure, 2019
Purpose: Hypertension guidelines recommend measuring blood pressure (BP) on both arms, since an abnormal inter-arm difference (IAD) in BP is associated with an increased risk of vascular abnormalities and cardiovascular (CV) disease. We tested whether an

Relation of the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system with potential cardiac injury and remodelling: the SABPA study

Blood Pressure, 2020
Purpose: The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) plays an important role in maintaining hemodynamic homeostasis. Ethnic disparities exist regarding RAAS activity due to sympathetic activity and sodium-water retention, however the implications ...

Blood Pressure, Blood Flow and Intraocular Pressure

Ophthalmic Research, 2009
(1) A rise of blood pressure by steps between 80 and 180 mm Hg mean pressure did not cause an increase in intraocular pressure under the conditions which are mentioned above. (2) If, however, slight positive influence of blood pressure upon intraocular pressure is to be observed, a higher carotid circulation rate connected with constant perfusion ...

The intensity of oscillations of the photoplethysmographic waveform variability at frequencies 0.04–0.4 Hz is effective marker of hypertension and coronary artery disease in males

Blood Pressure, 2020
Background: It is believed that the intensity of oscillations in the photoplethysmographic waveform variability reflects the activity of vascular regulatory mechanisms.

THE BLOOD PRESSURE IN GOUT [PDF]

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1918
The literature contains few data on the blood pressure in gout. It is reasonably well established that certain of the purin bases are hypersensitive in action. Desgrez and Dorleans 1 have shown experimentally that the injection of xanthin and of uric acid causes an increase of blood pressure.
