Diastolic dysfunction and baroreflex sensitivity in hypertension.
The determinants of diastolic dysfunction in patients with systemic hypertension are not completely known. To evaluate the possible role of age, arterial blood pressure, and baroreflex heart rate response impairment in causing diastolic dysfunction, we studied 61 patients (42 male; mean+/-SD age, 43.9+/-12 years) with newly recognized and therefore previously untreated systemic hypertension. Di...
متن کاملBaroreflex sensitivity and heredity in essential hypertension.
BACKGROUND Abnormalities in baroreflex control of heart rate may be important in the pathogenesis of essential hypertension. METHODS AND RESULTS To investigate the influence of heredity on baroreflex function, we measured baroreflex sensitivity in 40 untreated patients with essential hypertension grouped by the presence (FH+) or absence (FH-) of a family history of hypertension and in 24 norm...
متن کاملBaroreflex sensitivity and essential hypertension in adolescents.
It has been known for many years that baroreflex sensitivity is lowered in hypertensive patients. There are several known factors implicating this association, e.g. high blood pressure leads to remodeling of the carotid arterial wall, to its stiffness and to a diminished activation of baroreceptors; leptin released from a fatty tissue activates the sympathetic nervous system etc. On the other h...
متن کاملPulmonary Hypertension Complicating Systemic Hypertension, Is Diastolic Dysfunction the Culprit?
Background: Elevation in PA pressures has been observed by 2D echo in some but not all hypertensive patients. The mechanism and hemodynamic impact of pulmonary hypertension in these patients remains unclear. Methods: We reviewed echoes of all patients referred with systemic hypertension between 9/2006 to 5/2009 to identify those patients with left ventricular hypertrophy, normal systolic functi...
متن کاملMaternal diastolic dysfunction and left ventricular geometry in gestational hypertension.
The objective of this study was to evaluate diastolic parameters and left ventricular geometry in gestational hypertension. Twenty-one consecutive pregnant women with gestational hypertension and 21 normotensive women matched for age and gestational age were enrolled in the third trimester of gestation. Echocardiographic and uterine color Doppler evaluations were performed. Systolic, diastolic,...
