Different Relevance of Peripheral, Central or Nighttime Blood Pressure Measurements in the Prediction of Chronic Kidney Disease Progression in Patients with Mild or No-Proteinuria

Kidney & Blood Pressure Research, 2018
Background/Aims: Arterial hypertension is one of the leading factors aggravating the course of chronic kidney disease (CKD). It seems that the novel parameters used in the assessment of the blood pressure (BP) load (i.e. central blood pressure, nighttime

Central Blood Pressure and Hypertension [PDF]

Hypertension, 2008
During the 20th century, the brachial artery auscultatory method of blood pressure (BP) measurement has been the major basis for our understanding of clinical hypertension. First, the height of systolic (S) and diastolic (D) BP was used to define cardiovascular (CV) risk.

5.3 INORGANIC NITRITE, CONDUIT ARTERIES & CENTRAL BLOOD PRESSURE

Artery Research, 2013
Background. Organic nitrates (e.g. nitroglycerin) are highly selective dilators of muscular conduit arteries. By contrast, the endogenous inorganic nitrite anion (NO2−) is thought to be a hypoxia-dependent dilator of small resistance arterioles, via its ...

Effectiveness of Resistance Intradialytic Exercise Compared to Aerobic Intradialytic Exercise for Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis commonly experience reduced physical function, fatigue, poor sleep quality, and impaired health‐related quality of life. Intradialytic exercise has been proposed as a non‐pharmacological strategy to improve these outcomes.
