Severe orthostatic hypotension due to unilateral carotid artery dissection
A 46-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital with mild right-sided hemiparesis and orthostatic hypotension. Magnetic resonance angiography of the neck showed stenosis of the left distal carotid sinus surrounded by intraluminal hyperintensities on ...

Orthostatic hypotension and novel blood pressure-associated gene variants: Genetics of Postural Hemodynamics (GPH) Consortium [PDF]
Aims: Orthostatic hypotension (OH), an independent predictor of mortality and cardiovascular events, strongly correlates with hypertension. Recent genome-wide studies have identified new loci influencing blood pressure (BP) in populations, but their ...

Investigation of in vivo measurement of cerebral cytochrome-c-oxidase redox changes using near-infrared spectroscopy in patients with orthostatic hypotension [PDF]
We have previously used a continuous four wavelength near infrared spectrometer to measure changes in the cerebral concentrations of oxy- (Δ[HbO2] and deoxy- haemoglobin (Δ[HHb]) during head-up tilt in patients with primary autonomic failure.

Orthostatic Hypotension and the Long-Term Risk of Dementia: A Population-Based Study [PDF]
Background: Orthostatic hypotension (OH) is a common cause of transient cerebral hypoperfusion in the population. Cerebral hypoperfusion is widely implicated in cognitive impairment, but whether OH contributes to cognitive decline and dementia is ...

Transcutaneous Spinal Cord Stimulation Attenuates Blood Pressure Drops in Orthostasis
Orthostatic hypotension is a complex medical problem with various underlying pathogenic mechanisms and limited modalities for its correction. Since transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation (t-SCS) leads to immediate blood pressure (BP) elevation in a ...
