- 1From: Journal of Human Hypertension. (Vol. 22, Issue 11) Peer-ReviewedAortic valve sclerosis (AVS) may predispose to a prothrombotic state, as AVS is predictor of cardiovascular events in hypertensive populations. Thrombin exerts non-thrombotic effects such as vessel tone regulation,...
- 2From: Journal of Human Hypertension. (Vol. 22, Issue 11) Peer-ReviewedBlood pressure (BP) is known to vary by time of day and day of year. Studies differ substantially on the magnitude of the effect and there is doubt whether variation is clinically meaningful. We used more than 2 million...
- 3From: Journal of Human Hypertension. (Vol. 22, Issue 11) Peer-ReviewedAn appropriate cuff according to the individual's arm circumference is recommended with all blood pressure (BP) monitors. An electronic device for home monitoring has been developed (Visomat Comfort 20/40) that estimates...
- 4From: Journal of Human Hypertension. (Vol. 22, Issue 11) Peer-ReviewedOver a half century ago, actuaries and life insurance companies recognized elevated blood pressure as associated with mortality risks. (1) This early work identified systolic blood pressures of 20mmHg above the...
- 5From: Journal of Human Hypertension. (Vol. 22, Issue 11) Peer-ReviewedLeft ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is a powerful cardiovascular risk factor and has previously been related to endothelium-dependentt vasodilation (EDV) in hyperstensive patients. In the Prospective Investigation of the...

A modified ambulatory arterial stiffness index is independently associated with all-cause mortality.
Dependence of the ambulatory arterial stiffness index (AASI) on data scattering interferes with its potential clinical relevance. We assessed the correlates and all-cause mortality associations of a modified AASI... - 7From: Journal of Human Hypertension. (Vol. 22, Issue 11) Peer-ReviewedObservational and clinical studies suggest that high protein intake, particularly protein from plant sources, might reduce blood pressure (BP). To examine the association of dietary protein with BP, we analysed data from...
- 8From: Journal of Human Hypertension. (Vol. 22, Issue 11) Peer-ReviewedThe aim of this study was to assess whether the association between angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor use and the incidence of treated diabetes mellitus is modified by genetic polymorphisms in the...
- 9From: Journal of Human Hypertension. (Vol. 22, Issue 11) Peer-ReviewedThis study shows that consumption of fermented lactotripeptides (LTPs)-containing milk may have an acute daytime effect on blood pressure that appeared sustained with daily intake over a period of 4 weeks. Angiotensin...
- 10From: Journal of Human Hypertension. (Vol. 22, Issue 11) Peer-ReviewedThis study, carried out in a large cohort of treated essential hypertensives attending an out-patient hospital hypertension clinic, extends previous observations by showing that a clustering of two or three markers of...
- 11From: Journal of Human Hypertension. (Vol. 22, Issue 11) Peer-ReviewedSeveral studies documented an association between metabolic syndrome (MetS) and left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy. However, only in a few of these studies the impact of MetS on left ventricular mass (LVM) was separately...
