White-Coat Hypertension Is Hypertension [PDF]
The article in this issue from Puato et al1 in Padova, Italy, is important because it was prospective, with 5 years of follow-up, and the hypertensive patients were never treated. They showed that carotid intima-media thickness was greater at baseline in white-coat hypertensive subjects (WCHs), increased more during follow-up than in normotensive ...

Prevalence and risk factors for hypertension and association with ethnicity in Nigeria: results from a national survey. [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: Non-communicable diseases are now a global priority. We report on the prevalence of hypertension and its risk factors, including ethnicity, in a nationally representative sample of Nigerian adults recruited to a survey of visual impairment ...

We investigated a potential protective effect of acacetin, a naturally occurring flavonoid, against methylglyoxal (MGO)‐induced endothelial dysfunction in human umbilical vein endothelial cells and its mechanism of action. Acacetin can could inhibit MGO‐induced intracellular calcium ion influx, enhance the expression levels of phosphorylated ...

Molecular Implications of natriuretic peptides in the protection from hypertension and target organ damage development [PDF]
The pathogenesis of hypertension, as a multifactorial trait, is complex. High blood pressure levels, in turn, concur with the development of cardiovascular damage.

In human monocytic cells THP‐1, a limited uptake of native—not oxidized—LDL/VLDL induced expression of scavenger receptor A and cellular adhesion. Induction was inhibited by lysosomotropic (WR‐1065) and lipophilic (BHT) antioxidants and by siRNAs against ferritinophagy.

Background Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery is an effective metabolic surgery against diabetes and obesity. Clinical evidence indicates that patients with severe obesity have a poor curative effect in losing weight if they suffer from leptin or ...

Structural and hemodynamic properties in murine pulmonary arterial networks under hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension [PDF]
Detection and monitoring of patients with pulmonary hypertension, defined as mean blood pressure in the main pulmonary artery above 25 mmHg, requires a combination of imaging and hemodynamic measurements. This study demonstrates how to combine imaging data from microcomputed tomography (micro-CT) images with hemodynamic pressure and flow waveforms from
