High altitude and blood pressure in children.
We aimed to evaluate the blood pressure of children who had similar demographic characteristics but lived at different altitudes. Blood pressure of the children attending primary schools in Izmir (sea level: n = 425) and Van (altitude: 1725 m, n = 291) were measured by mercurial sphygmomanometer for this study. They were similar with respect to age, sex, weight, height, and BMI. Mean age of the...
متن کاملConventional and Ambulatory Blood Pressure as Predictors of Diastolic Left Ventricular Function in a Flemish Population
BACKGROUND No longitudinal study compared associations of echocardiographic indexes of diastolic left ventricular function studies with conventional (CBP) and daytime ambulatory (ABP) blood pressure in the general population. METHODS AND RESULTS In 780 Flemish (mean age, 50.2 years; 51.7% women), we measured left atrial volume index (LAVI), peak velocities of the transmitral blood flow (E) an...
متن کاملAmbulatory blood pressure and metabolic abnormalities in hypertensive subjects with inappropriately high left ventricular mass.
Appropriateness of left ventricular (LV) mass to cardiac workload can be evaluated by the ratio of observed LV mass to the value predicted for an individual's gender, height(2.7), and stroke work at rest (%PLVM). It is unclear which pathophysiological factors are associated with inappropriately high LV mass in hypertensive subjects. Adequate LV mass was defined by the 90% confidence interval (7...
متن کاملAmbulatory blood pressure in untreated and treated hypertensive patients at high altitude: the High Altitude Cardiovascular Research-Andes study.
UNLABELLED Blood pressure increases during acute exposure to high altitude in healthy humans. However, little is known on altitude effects in hypertensive subjects or on the treatment efficacy in this condition. Objectives of High Altitude Cardiovascular Research (HIGHCARE)-Andes Lowlanders Study were to investigate the effects of acute high-altitude exposure on 24-hour ambulatory blood pressur...
متن کاملIs there a relationship between ambulatory intra-arterial blood pressure and left ventricular function?
The relationship between ambulatory intra-arterial blood pressure and left ventricular ejection fraction was examined in a group of 23 untreated hypertensive subjects who underwent concurrent radionuclide ventriculography. All patients had a normal ejection fraction at rest (range, 50-80%), and no significant correlation was found between blood pressure and resting ejection fraction. Sixty-one ...
