Comparison of nocturnal blood pressure based on home versus ambulatory blood pressure measurement: The Ohasama Study

open access: yesClinical and Experimental Hypertension, 2020
Objectives The nocturnal blood pressure (BP) is a strong predictor of hypertensive target organ damage including that in cardiovascular diseases. The use of ambulatory BP (ABP) monitoring has enabled the evaluation of nocturnal BP and detection of non ...

Association between Pruritus and Psychosocial Well-being: A Population-based Study among 6,809 Subjects

open access: yesActa Dermato-Venereologica, 2023
Pruritus has an extensive impact on functional, social and psychosocial behaviour. The association between pruritus and psychological well-being has mostly been studied among selected patient groups, whereas population-based studies are lacking.

INBREEDING IN POPULATIONS WITH OVERLAPPING GENERATIONS [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics, 1977
ABSTRACT An inbreeding matrix is defined for populations with overlapping generations. In the short term it can be expressed in terms of a matrix specifying the passage of genes between the different age groups (and sexes) and a diagonal matrix whose elements depend on the number of individuals in each age group.

Serum Myonectin Levels Are Positively Associated With Physical Function and Lower Frailty‐Related Limitation in Maintenance Hemodialysis Patients: A Cross‐Sectional Study

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients frequently suffer from frailty, characterized by reduced physical function and poor prognosis. Myokines, such as myonectin, secreted by muscle, are emerging regulators of systemic health. This study investigated the relationship between serum myonectin, adipokines (adiponectin, omentin), and ...

Comparative Evaluation of Hemodiafiltration, Hemoperfusion, and Standard Hemodialysis on Efficacy, Inflammatory Control, Dialysis Adequacy, and Safety in End‐Stage Renal Disease: A Prospective Observational Study

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic micro‐inflammation in patients with end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) is a significant driver of cardiovascular complications and diminished quality of life. While standard hemodialysis (SHD) effectively manages small‐molecule clearance, its ability to remove medium‐to‐large uremic toxins—the primary catalysts of systemic ...
