Genome-wide association study of white-coat effect in hypertensive patients

open access: yesBlood Pressure, 2019
Background: White-coat effect (WCE) confounds diagnosis and treatment of hypertension. The prevalence of white-coat hypertension is higher in Europe and Asia compared to other continents suggesting that genetic factors could play a role.

Magnitude of the Difference Between Clinic and Ambulatory Blood Pressures and Risk of Adverse Outcomes in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2019
Background Obtaining 24‐hour ambulatory blood pressure (BP) is recommended for the detection of masked or white‐coat hypertension. Our objective was to determine whether the magnitude of the difference between ambulatory and clinic BPs has prognostic ...

[18F]Fluorodeprenyl‐D2 PET as a Tool to Monitor Disease Activity in GAD65‐Ab Autoimmune Encephalitis

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate [18F]fluorodeprenyl‐D2 ([18F]F‐DED) positron‐emission tomography (PET) imaging as a biomarker of disease activity in autoimmune encephalitis (AIE) associated with glutamic acid decarboxylase 65 (GAD65) antibodies. Methods [18F]F‐DED PET was performed in 25 GAD65‐AIE patients and 8 controls using dynamic (0–60 min) and ...

Added Prognostic Value of EEG Reactivity in Comatose Patients Following Cardiac Arrest

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To evaluate the added prognostic value of EEG reactivity for favorable outcome compared with background analysis during and after targeted temperature management (TTM). Methods Prospective observational cohort study of comatose post–cardiac arrest patients admitted to a single academic center between 2017 and 2022, all undergoing ...

Resistant Hypertension Workup and Approach to Treatment

open access: yesInternational Journal of Hypertension, 2011
Resistant hypertension is defined as blood pressure above the patient's goal despite the use of 3 or more antihypertensive agents from different classes at optimal doses, one of which should ideally be a diuretic.

Does resting heart rate measured by the physician reflect the patient’s true resting heart rate? White-coat heart rate

open access: yesIndian Heart Journal, 2018
Objectives: In cardiology, resting heart rate (HR) and blood pressure (BP) are key elements and are used to adapt treatment. However HR measured in consultation may not reflect true resting HR.

Peripheral Neutrophil Activation and Extracellular Trap Formation in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
Markers of neutrophil activation are increased in plasma during ALS, and markers of NET formation associate with ALS survival. ABSTRACT Objectives Peripheral neutrophil levels in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) inversely correlate with survival, suggesting a role for neutrophils in disease progression.
