association between maternal and neonatal blood pressure
Authors
abstract
objective : this study aims to describe the blood pressure profile of newborns of preeclampsia mothers in vali-e-asr hospital during 2003-2004. materials and methods : in this cross-sectional descriptive analytical study 200 mothers and their newborns were studied. blood pressure of all newborns was checked by oscillometric method on the first day after birth and recorded in a questionnaire along with information pertaining to the mother, obtained by interview or through medical file retrieval. results : the newborns of mothers with high systolic (>140 mmhg) and diastolic (>90 mmhg) blood pressure had mean systolic (65.40 mmhg) and diastolic (42.85 mmhg) blood pressures higher than that in neonates of normotensive mothers( p <0.006). mean systolic and diastolic blood pressure of neonates whose mothers were preeclampsia (68.2/42.11 mmhg or chronically hypertensive (68.59/ 41.50 mmhg-) were significantly higher than neonates of normotensive mothers (p<0.0001 and p<0.002, respectively).newborns of smokers had significantly higher blood pressures too (p<0.02). conclusion : mother's blood pressure can affect neonatal blood pressure. chronic hypertension, pre-eclampsia, and cigarette smoking in mothers can adversely alter neonatal blood pressure. these maternal conditions should be screened and managed as soon as possible.

Association between blood pressure changes and obesity in over-18
Introduction: Overweight and obesity are risk factors for developing many diseases such as hypertension. Furthermore, obesity indicators such as abdominal height, waist circumference and hip circumference can independently and sometimes more severely lead to blood pressure changes. The objective of this study was to evaluate the association between blood pressure changes and anthropometric in...

Background : Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a complicated kidney problem causing permanent renal failure in progressive stages. The final stage of CKD is called ESRD in which most accepted management is Hemodialysis (HD). Arterio-Venus Fistula (AVF) is the most practical way of making proper access to the blood circulatory system however, maturation of the AVF is a challenge, since there are...
