Of interest is that cardiovascular (CV) events occur more frequently in the early morning period, the time when BP and heart rate rise steeply. OBJECTIVE To provide an overview of circadian BP and its correlation with adverse clinical outcomes a...
متن کاملPleiotropic effects of telmisartan beyond blood pressure control
Telmisartan is an effective antihypertensive agent. In ONTARGET study, it was non-inferior to ramipril in preventing vascular events in high risk patients, and was better tolerated. In ROADMAP study, though olmesartan delayed the onset of microalbuminuria in patients with type 2 diabetes and normoalbuminuria, a greater number had fatal cardiovascular (CV) events. NAVIGATOR study demonstrated th...

Arrhythmias are common problems in hypertensive patients. The presence and complexity of both supraventricular and ventricular arrhythmias may influence morbidity, mortality, as well as the quality of life of patients. Diastolic dysfunction of the left ventricle, left atrial size and function, and left ventricular hypertrophy have been suggested as the underlying risk factors for supraventricul...
