[Systolic and diastolic blood pressure levels of healthy newborn infants]
OBJECTIVE: To identify normative blood pressure (BP) levels for Brazilian newborn infants and to define a cut-off point for high systolic and diastolic BP in this population.METHODS: 634 healthy term neonates, aged 12 to 36 hours, who were born in the Instituto Materno Infantil de Pernambuco (IMIP) were included in this survey. An oscillometric method was used to acess the neonates BP. To ident...
متن کاملBlood Amyloid Beta Levels in Healthy, Mild Cognitive Impairment and Alzheimer’s Disease Individuals: Replication of Diastolic Blood Pressure Correlations and Analysis of Critical Covariates
Plasma amyloid beta (Aβ) levels are being investigated as potential biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease. In AB128 cross-sectional study, a number of medical relevant correlates of blood Aβ40 or Aβ42 were analyzed in 140 subjects (51 Alzheimer's disease patients, 53 healthy controls and 36 individuals diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment). We determined the association between multiple variab...
متن کاملAssociation between diastolic blood pressure and cumulative work time.
Diastolic blood pressure was viewed as a generic indicator of aging, and its association with cumulative work time was studied after controlling for age as a potential confounding factor. The study was conducted among production line workers at a Brazilian tannery in July 1993. The association between diastolic blood pressure and cumulative work time was verified by fitting a second-order linea...
متن کاملAssociation of target organ damage with 24-hour systolic and diastolic blood pressure levels and hypertension subtypes in untreated Chinese.
The association of target organ damage with 24-hour systolic and diastolic blood pressure levels and ambulatory hypertension subtypes has not yet been examined in untreated Chinese patients. We measured left ventricular mass index by echocardiography (n=619), the urinary albumin:creatinine ratio (n=1047), and aortic pulse wave velocity by tonometry (n=1013) in 1047 untreated subjects (mean age,...
متن کاملRacial discrimination associated with higher diastolic blood pressure in a sample of American Indian adults.
OBJECTIVES Hypertension prevalence is high among American Indians (AIs). AIs experience a substantial burden of interpersonal racial discrimination, which in other populations has been associated with higher blood pressure. The purpose of this study is to understand whether racial discrimination experiences are associated with higher blood pressure in AIs. MATERIALS AND METHODS We used the Ev...
