Cardiac Repolarization and Autonomic Regulation during Short-Term Cold Exposure in Hypertensive Men: An Experimental Study
OBJECTIVES The aim of our study was to assess the effect of short-term cold exposure, typical in subarctic climate, on cardiac electrical function among untreated middle-aged hypertensive men. METHODS We conducted a population-based recruitment of 51 hypertensive men and a control group of 32 men without hypertension (age 55-65 years) who underwent whole-body cold exposure (15 min exposure to...
متن کاملCorrelation between Very Short and Short-Term Blood Pressure Variability in Diabetic-Hypertensive and Healthy Subjects
BACKGROUND Blood pressure (BP) variability can be evaluated by 24-hour ambulatory BP monitoring (24h-ABPM), but its concordance with results from finger BP measurement (FBPM) has not been established yet. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to compare parameters of short-term (24h-ABPM) with very short-term BP variability (FBPM) in healthy (C) and diabetic-hypertensive (DH) subjects. METHOD...
متن کاملAcute effects of cold exposure on central aortic wave reflection.
The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of acute cold exposure on the timing and amplitude of central aortic wave reflection and central pressure. We hypothesized that cold exposure would result in an early return of reflected pressure waves from the periphery and an increase in central aortic systolic pressure as a result of cold-induced vasoconstriction. Twelve apparently healt...
متن کاملLong-term improvement in renal function after short-term strict blood pressure control in hypertensive nephrosclerosis.
Seventy-nine hypertensive nephrosclerosis patients entered a prospective randomized single-blind study to 1) establish the pattern of decay of renal function in this population and the variability therein and 2) to determine if strict diastolic blood pressure (DBP) control (less than or equal to 80 mm Hg) is more effective than conventional levels (90-95 mm Hg) in conserving renal function. Bec...
متن کاملComparison between Central and Brachial Blood Pressure in Hypertensive Elderly Women and Men
AIM To compare the values of central and brachial systemic blood pressure (SBP) between women and men over 60 years of age with systemic arterial hypertension. METHODS This study was a quantitative, descriptive, cross-sectional study with elderly patients admitted to and selected from spontaneous and scheduled demand at basic health units in Uberlândia, Minas Gerais, Brazil, between March 201...
