Plasma homocysteine, hypertension incidence, and blood pressure tracking: the Framingham Heart Study.
Plasma homocysteine is cross-sectionally associated with blood pressure in large, community-based studies. It is unknown whether elevated plasma homocysteine predicts hypertension incidence. We investigated the relations of baseline plasma total homocysteine levels to hypertension incidence and blood pressure tracking in 2104 Framingham Heart Study participants (mean age, 57 years; 58% women), ...
متن کاملRelations of serum uric acid to longitudinal blood pressure tracking and hypertension incidence.
Serum uric acid (UA) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of hypertension. We investigated the relationship of serum UA to hypertension incidence and blood pressure (BP) progression in 3329 Framingham Study participants (mean age 48.7 years; 55.6% women) free of hypertension, myocardial infarction, heart failure, renal failure, or gout. At follow-up 4 years from baseline, 458 persons (13.8%)...
متن کاملBlood pressure increase and incidence of hypertension in relation to inflammation-sensitive plasma proteins.
OBJECTIVE The reasons for the relationship between inflammation-sensitive plasma proteins (ISPs) and incidence of cardiovascular diseases are poorly understood. This study explored the hypothesis that ISPs are associated with future hypertension and age-related blood pressure increase. METHODS AND RESULTS Blood pressure and plasma levels of fibrinogen, alpha1-antitrypsin, haptoglobin, cerulop...
متن کاملPlasma adrenaline: relations to blood pressure, blood platelet function and blood lipids in essential hypertension.
For various reasons plasma catecholamines should be measured in arterial blood when comparing hypertensive and normotensive groups (1, 2). Measurements of plasma catecholamines in peripheral venous blood may conceal important hypertensive-normotensive differences (2). Plasma catecholamines seem to be subjected to a peripheral arterialvenous fractional extraction of approximately 50%. Thus, arte...
متن کاملCentral blood pressure and hypertension.
During the 20th century, the brachial artery auscultatory method of blood pressure (BP) measurement has been the major basis for our understanding of clinical hypertension. First, the height of systolic (S) and diastolic (D) BP was used to define cardiovascular (CV) risk. Second, BP reduction by drug treatment was shown to be associated with a substantial decrease of CV risk in several varietie...
