Prognostic significance of between-arm blood pressure differences.
Blood pressure (BP) recordings often differ between arms, but the extent to which these differences are reproducible and whether the differences have prognostic importance is unknown. We enrolled 421 consecutive patients from a medicine and a renal clinic at a veterans' hospital. Three BP recordings were obtained in each arm using an oscillometric device in a sequential manner and repeated in 1...
متن کاملBlood Pressure Variability: Assessment, Prognostic Significance and Management.
Interest in blood pressure variability (BPV) as a cardiovascular risk factor has gained focus in recent times. Increased BPV places added strain on the cardiovascular (CV) system unrelated to its average value, leading to increased risk of target organ damage (TOD) and CV events. Recent data suggests that there is inter-drug variation in efficacy with calcium channel blockers (CCBs) such as Aml...
متن کاملHealth Improvements for a Healthy Shanghai Rising; Comment on “Shanghai Rising: Health Improvements as Measured by Avoidable Mortality since 2000”
The commentator suggests that it is necessary to extend the classical connotation of global city which focuses much on the functions of controlling global capital and production. Global city should also include the dimensions of the leading role and capacity on health improvements and well-being promotion. The commentator agrees with authors’ assessments about Shanghai’s substantial progress o...
متن کاملSignificance of blood pressure in infancy. Familial aggregation and predictive effect on later blood pressure.
Blood pressure was measured in 730 infants and their mothers within 5 days of birth. Paternal blood pressures were obtained where possible, and follow-up measurements were made on participants at 1 week and 1, 6, 12, 18, and 24 months. Infant blood pressures were adjusted for such variables as age, observer, cuff size, and sleep/activity status. Infant blood pressure correlated with maternal bl...
متن کاملPrognostic significance of visit-to-visit systolic blood pressure variability: a meta-analysis of 77,299 patients.
In recent clinical investigations, visit-to-visit systolic blood pressure (SBP) variability was proven as a predictor of cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality. However, inconsistent results exist in this association. A meta-analysis of 13 prospective studies was conducted to evaluate the prognostic value of visit-to-visit SBP variability by different parameters in 77,299 patients with a...
