Blood pressure variability and cardiovascular risk in the PROspective study of pravastatin in the elderly at risk (PROSPER) [PDF]
Variability in blood pressure predicts cardiovascular disease in young- and middle-aged subjects, but relevant data for older individuals are sparse. We analysed data from the PROspective Study of Pravastatin in the Elderly at Risk (PROSPER) study of ...

Dissecting the genetic components of a quantitative trait locus for blood pressure and renal pathology on rat chromosome 3 [PDF]
Background: We have previously confirmed the importance of rat chromosome 3 (RNO3) genetic loci on blood pressure elevation, pulse pressure (PP) variability and renal pathology during salt challenge in the stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive (SHRSP ...

Background To understand how blood pressure (BP) from midlife and beyond is related to cognition in older age, a lifespan approach is needed. We assessed the associations of BP levels and variability from midlife on with subsequent cognitive change ...

Birth weight influences blood pressure values and variability in children and adolescents [PDF]
The objective of the present study was to assess the relationships between birth weight and the values and variability of ambulatory blood pressure. Six hundred thirty healthy children (369 girls) age 4 to 18 years (mean, 9.9 years) born at term after a ...

Blood pressure variability and target organ damage regression in hypertension
The study by Triantafyllidi et al. supports the view that regression of subclinical cardiac damage requires an effective 24‐hour blood pressure (BP) control along with a reduction in BP variability and suggests that the assessment of BPV and its ...

Long‐Term Blood Pressure Variability and Risk of Cognitive Decline and Dementia Among Older Adults
Background Blood pressure variability (BPV) in midlife increases risk of late‐life dementia, but the impact of BPV on the cognition of adults who have already reached older ages free of major cognitive deficits is unknown.

Blood Pressure Variability [PDF]
A series of articles1–4⇓⇓⇓ published recently in The Lancet and Lancet Neurology raise an interesting issue that has implications for both the clinical management of hypertension and future research in hypertension, particularly in the development and use of different classes of blood pressure (BP)–lowering drugs. These studies, which were led by Peter

Blood Pressure Measurements in 780 Apparently Healthy Cats [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Mean systolic blood pressure in apparently healthy cats has been reported as approximately 125 mmHg using direct assessment, but there is greater variability in reported values using indirect assessment.

Blood pressure response to renal denervation is correlated with baseline blood pressure variability: a patient-level meta-analysis [PDF]
Background: Sympathetic tone is one of the main determinants of blood pressure (BP) variability and treatment-resistant hypertension. The aim of our study was to assess changes in BP variability after renal denervation (RDN).
