Does alcohol cause hypertension or pseudo-hypertension?
Most textbooks of medicine written since World War I1 do not mention alcohol as a cause of high blood pressure. Alcohol is, however, implicated in two books on hypertension published in the 1920s (Batty-Shaw, 1921; Halls Dally, 1926), presumably following the first report of an association by Lian (1915). Since the mid-1970s there has been increasing interest in this association which appears t...
متن کاملAn Uncommon Cause of Neonatal Hypertension
Background: Adrenal hematoma is a very rare acquired cause of neonatal hypertension. In this study, we report a case of neonatal hypertension associated with adrenal hematoma. A male neonate was immediately transferred to our neonatal intensive care unit after delivery due to meconium aspiration. He needed to be on mechanical ventilation support. During his hospital stay, hospital records showe...
متن کاملA Cause or a Consequence of Hypertension?
In all forms of chronic hypertension, the renal-pressure natriuresis mechanism is abnormal because sodium excretion is the same as in normotension despite the increased blood pressure. However, the importance of this resetting of pressure natriuresis as a cause of hypertension is controversial. Theoretically, a resetting of pressure natriuresis could necessitate increased blood pressure to main...
متن کاملHypertension Secondary to PHPT: Cause or Coincidence?
Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) may be associated with arterial hypertension. The underlying mechanisms are not fully understood and reversibility by parathyroid surgery is controversial. This study aimed to characterize pressor hormones, vascular reactivity to norepinephrine, and cytosolic-free calcium in platelets in 15 hypertensive patients with hypercalcaemic PHPT before and after succes...
متن کاملHypertension and a missing kidney
Standard initial assessment via ultrasound of a 4-year-old girl with hypertension revealed the absence of one kidney. Instead of cross-sectional imaging of the retroperitoneal space, a functional (nuclear) study was performed. This revealed a malformed kidney within the chest. Though systemic levels of renin and aldosterone were not elevated, removal of the malformed kidney normalized the blood...
