Time after time – circadian clocks through the lens of oscillator theory
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Oscillator theory bridges physics and circadian biology. Damped oscillators require external drivers, while limit cycles emerge from delayed feedback and nonlinearities. Coupling enables tissue‐level coherence, and entrainment aligns internal clocks with environmental cues.

Losartan/Hydrochlorothiazide Combination Therapy Surpasses High-dose Angiotensin Receptor Blocker in the Reduction of Morning Home Blood Pressure in Patients with Morning Hypertension [PDF]
, 2012 Angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) are the first-line antihypertensive agents. In clinical practice, it is often difficult to achieve the recommended blood pressure level by ARBs in their ordinal dosages alone.

Assessment of Nocturnal Blood Pressure by Home Blood Pressure Monitoring [PDF]
Hypertension Research, 2007 Among blood pressure measurements obtained by ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM), nocturnal blood pressure has been reported to have greater prognostic significance than daytime blood pressure or 24-h blood pressure (1, 2). Blunted nocturnal blood pressure dipping (as seen in nondippers or risers) has also been shown to be a risk factor for ...

Hospital Readmission After Traumatic Brain Injury Hospitalization in Community‐Dwelling Older Adults
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective To examine the risk of hospital readmission after an index hospitalization for TBI in older adults. Methods Using data from the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) study, we used propensity score matching of individuals with an index TBI‐related hospitalization to individuals with (1) non‐TBI hospitalizations (primary analysis)

Home Blood Pressure Monitoring Schedule
, 2019 Numerous factors need to be considered when defining an optimal home blood pressure measurement schedule, including the number, interval, and timing of readings. Overall, data from cross-sectional and prospective studies suggest that the predictive accuracy of home blood pressure increases with the number of measurements.

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective Reports have linked both high and low serum uric acid (SUA) levels to adverse health outcomes. This study aimed to establish a reference interval for SUA in older adults and assessed its association with clinically relevant outcomes in relatively healthy, community‐dwelling individuals aged ≥70 years old.
