Blood pressure circadian rhythm in essential hypertension.
1. Both systolic and diastolic blood pressure show a well defined circadian variation in ambulatory hypertensive subjects. 2. Blood pressure is highest in the mid-morning (10.00 hours) and lowest during sleep at 03.00 hours. 3. Treatment with oxprenolol (taken during the day) reduces daytime blood pressure but is less effective during the night and early morning.
متن کاملGender difference in blood pressure control and cardiovascular risk factors in Americans with diagnosed hypertension.
Hypertension is an important risk factor for cardiovascular disease, which is the leading cause of death in women. We, therefore, analyzed gender-specific trends in the control of blood pressure and prevalence of 5 other cardiovascular risk factors (central obesity, elevated total cholesterol, low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, hyperglycemia, and smoking) among adults with diagnosed hype...
متن کاملCalcitropic hormones, platelet calcium, and blood pressure in essential hypertension.
Plasma ionized calcium, platelet cytosolic calcium (using the fura-2 method in gel-filtered platelets), parathyroid hormone (both the intact hormone and a midmolecule portion), calcitriol, and calcidiol were measured in 19 untreated male patients with essential hypertension and 19 age-matched normotensive male research subjects. Mean levels of platelet cytosolic calcium, parathyroid hormone, ca...
متن کاملDeterminants of Blood Pressure Response to Saralasin in Essential Hypertension
To evalute the role of the renin-angiotensin system and sodium depletion in the hypotensive response to 1-sarcosine-8-alanine-angiotensin II (saralasin), 15 male patients with essential hypertension were studied on a diet containing 120 mEq of sodium and 100 mEq of potassium per day. After a 5-day control period, all subjects had a mild pressor response to the saralasin infusion (p < 0.01). Aft...
متن کاملBlood Pressure Control and Exaggerated Blood Pressure Response in Nigerians with Essential Hypertension
BACKGROUND Blood pressure (BP) control in hypertensives is important in preventing cardiovascular (CV) morbidity and mortality. This work was done to assess control of BP among Nigerian hypertensives at rest and during exercise. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 85 male hypertensives were recruited consecutively and had clinical evaluation and treadmill (TM) exercise testing using the Bruce pr...
