Medicinal plants have been used in the treatment of various diseases as they possess potential pharmacological activities including antineoplastic, antimicrobial, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, analgesics, anti-diabetic, anti-hypertensive, antidiarrheal and other activities. There is continuous urgent need to discover new active biological compounds with diverse chemical structures novel mecha...

Background: This study aimed to investigate the effects of abnormal placental location and placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) disorder on risk hypertensive disorders pregnancy (HDPs). Methods: retrospective included 985 patients with 2100 normal location. The incidence HDPs in those concurrent PAS was analyzed. factors affecting pregnancy-induced hypertension (PIH) were analyzed using logistic reg...

Hypertension is a common comorbidity in obstructive sleep apnea/hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS). OSAHS can raise blood pressures to pre-hypertensive and hypertensive ranges, increase the prevalence of 'non-dipping' overnight pressure patterns, risk resistant hypertension.

background: resveratrol has beneficial effects on cardiovascular system. this study aimed at examining antidiabetic and antihypertensive effects of resveratrol in rats with simultaneous type 2 diabetes and renal hypertension. methods: eight groups (8-10 each) of male spargue-dawley rats, including a control, a diabetic (induced by streptozotocin and nicotinamide), a renal hypertensive (induced ...

background: anxiety, depression, and other adverse psychological reactions are often observed in elderly hypertensive patients. appropriate exercise is a safe form of adjuvant therapy without causing side effects among these patients, with consistent effects on patients’ mental health. in this study, a collective exercise intervention experiment was conducted to evaluate the mental health of el...

Preeclampsia (PE) is a hypertensive disorder of pregnancy. PE is a common disease in pregnant women and is considered to be a major cause of preterm delivery. While PE is cured only by placental delivery, patients with stable disease can be managed up to 37 weeks of gestation by antihypertensive drugs. Successful management of PE greatly reduces maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. Delay...

BACKGROUND Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) is a rare hematologic disorder resulting in hemolysis of red blood cells, consumption of platelets, and occlusion of microvasculature. Malignant hypertension is the clinical syndrome of severe elevations in blood pressure and funduscopic hypertensive retinopathy, including bilateral flame-shaped hemorrhage and papilledema. CASE REPORT We de...

Myasthenia gravis (MG) is a rare, autoimmune neuromuscular junction disorder. Prevalence rates approach 1/5,000. MG presents with painless, fluctuating, fatigable weakness involving specific muscle groups. It occurs more common in younger individuals. Late-onset MG is more frequent in elderly men and is often misdiagnosed. We present a case of an 80 year old male presented with ocular weakness ...

Systemic hypertension is uncommon in children. It is usually secondary to underlying diseases. Here, we present an 11-year-old boy suffering from critical renal artery stenosis with unusual initial presentation of status epilepticus and hypertensive cerebellar encephalopathy. Angiography revealed bilateral renal arteries fibromuscular dysplasia. The encephalopathy improved dramatically after re...
