Daily Liquorice Consumption for Two Weeks Increases Augmentation Index and Central Systolic and Diastolic Blood Pressure
BACKGROUND Liquorice ingestion often elevates blood pressure, but the detailed haemodynamic alterations are unknown. We studied haemodynamic changes induced by liquorice consumption in 20 subjects versus 30 controls with average blood pressures of 120/68 and 116/64 mmHg, respectively. METHODS Haemodynamic variables were measured in supine position before and after two weeks of liquorice consu...
متن کاملDealcoholized red wine decreases systolic and diastolic blood pressure and increases plasma nitric oxide: short communication.
RATIONALE Experimental studies have shown a potential blood pressure (BP) lowering effect of red wine polyphenols, whereas the effects of ethanol and polyphenols on BP in humans are not yet clear. OBJECTIVE The aim of the present work was to evaluate the effects of red wine fractions (alcoholic and nonalcoholic) on BP and plasma nitric oxide (NO) in subjects at high cardiovascular risk. MET...
متن کاملAscorbic acid status and subsequent diastolic and systolic blood pressure.
Free radicals and oxidation are involved in several aspects of blood pressure physiology. We investigated the relationship between blood pressure and antioxidants, including plasma ascorbic acid (AscA), in a 17-week controlled-diet study. Study subjects included 68 men aged 30 to 59 years who had a mean diastolic blood pressure of 73.4 mm Hg and a mean systolic blood pressure of 122.2 mm Hg. On...
متن کاملLow-Glycemic-Index Foods Can Decrease Systolic and Diastolic Blood Pressure in the Short Term
Background. We aimed to compare the effects of low- and high-GI foods on 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure. Methods. This longitudinal study was performed on 30 women, aged 18 to 40 years, during 24 hours. In the first leg of study all recruited subjects were assigned to LGI period for 24 hours and, after a 2-week washout period, all subjects were assigned to HGI period. BP was measured every h...
متن کامل[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...
