Blood pressure and inflammation in apparently healthy men.
Inflammation plays an important role in the development of atherosclerosis, but the specific stimuli governing cytokine release in atherogenesis are unknown. We examined the hypothesis that hypertension may increase the risk of atherosclerosis via proinflammatory effects. In a cross-sectional study involving 508 apparently healthy men, we studied the association between blood pressure and basel...
متن کاملBlood Pressure Measurements in 780 Apparently Healthy Cats
BACKGROUND Mean systolic blood pressure in apparently healthy cats has been reported as approximately 125 mmHg using direct assessment, but there is greater variability in reported values using indirect assessment. Increasing age and the white-coat effect are associated with increased systolic blood pressure. HYPOTHESIS/OBJECTIVES To report Doppler-derived blood pressure measurements from a l...
متن کاملPrevalence of hyperlipoproteinaemia in apparently healthy men.
Lipoprotein typing was carried out on 4385 apparently healthy male subjects at work in the Glasgow conurbation of the West of Scotland. Subjects werefasting and the investigations undertaken were cholesterol, triglyceride, lipoprotein paper electrophoresis, and preparative ultracentrifugation when necessary. 29*5 per cent of subjects were normal in terms of history, weight, blood pressure, elec...
متن کاملBlood platelet count and function are related to total and cardiovascular death in apparently healthy men.
BACKGROUND Experimental animal and clinical studies indicate that blood platelets have an important role in atherosclerosis and formation of thrombi. Prospective studies presenting evidence of an association between blood platelet count and cardiovascular mortality have not been performed. METHODS AND RESULTS From 1973 to 1975, blood platelets were counted, and their responsiveness to aggrega...
متن کاملThe effect of low-dose potassium supplementation on blood pressure in apparently healthy volunteers.
Epidemiological and clinical trials suggest an inverse relationship between dietary K intake and blood pressure (BP). Most trials however have been of short duration, the dose of K was high, and the results have been conflicting. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect on BP of a low-dose supplementation (24 mmol/d) for an extended period. A double-blind placebo-controlled trial...
