Hypertension, defined as persistently elevated systolic blood pressure (SBP) >140 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure (DBP) at least 90 mmHg (International Society of Hypertension guidelines), affect...
This article seeks to inform the reader about the global burden of hypertension and highlight the need for therapies to reduce societal costs and mortality associated with hypertension. Hypertension i...
The objectives of this study were 1-to evaluate the prevalence of masked chronic hypertension in pregnant women classified as gestational hypertension 2-to compare the risks of developing preeclampsia...
The prognostic role and the clinical significance of orthostatic hypertension (OHT) remained undefined for long because data were sparse and often inconsistent. In recent years, evidence has been accu...
The current review aims to present the latest scientific updates on the role of Sortilin in the pathophysiology of hypertension....
The main focus of this systematic overview is on the functional contribution of Sortilin to the pathogenesis of hypertension. Sortilin is a glycoprotein mostly known for its actions as a trafficking m...
The latest findings linking Sortilin and hypertension that are herein discussed can inspire novel areas of research which could eventually lead to the discovery of new therapeutic strategies in cardio...
Hypertension is a leading risk factor for cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality globally. Hypertension and chronic kidney disease are closely intertwined conditions as hypertension can lead t...
Uncontrolled hypertension is a major contributor to cardiovascular disease (CVD) in the US....
To determine the prevalence of hypertension control cascade outcomes (hypertension awareness, treatment recommendations, and medication use) among individuals with uncontrolled hypertension to inform ...
This weighted cross-sectional study used January 2017 to March 2020 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) data from noninstitutionalized adults aged 18 years or older in the US wit...
Calendar year of response to the NHANES survey....
Mean blood pressure (BP) was computed using up to 3 measurements. Uncontrolled hypertension was defined as systolic BP of 130 mm Hg or greater or diastolic BP of 80 mm Hg or greater, regardless of med...
The study included 3129 US adults with uncontrolled hypertension (1675 male [weighted percentage, 52.3%]; 775 aged 18 to 44 years [weighted percentage, 29.4%]; 1306 aged 45 to 64 years [weighted perce...
In this cross-sectional study, more than 50% of adults with uncontrolled hypertension in the US were unaware of their hypertension and were untreated, and 70.8% of those who were treated had hypertens...
We investigated the association between albuminuria and hypertensive retinopathy (HR) in hypertensive adults....
This was a cross-sectional subgroup analysis of data from the China Stroke Primary Prevention Trial. We enrolled 2,964 hypertensive adults in this study. Keith-Wagener-Barker stages was used to assess...
HR was found in 76.6% (n = 2, 271) of the participants, albuminuria was found in 11.1% (n = 330). The UACR levels were significantly higher in subjects with HR than in those without HR (grade 1, β = 1...
HR was positively correlated with albuminuria in hypertensive Chinese adults. This correlation was more remarkable when the population was stratified by triglycerides levels and smoking status. HR can...
To compare the risk of readmission in those receiving no treatment, labetalol, nifedipine or both at hospital discharge following delivery complicated by presence of hypertension....
Retrospective study at a single tertiary care center over a 4-year period (2017-2020). Those with peripartum hypertension (pHTN), defined as any SBP greater than 140 mmHg or DBP greater than 90 mmHg o...
Nineteen thousand, four hundred and twenty-five women gave birth during the study period and 4660 (24.0%) met the described definition of pHTN. Of those, 1232 (26.4%) were discharged on antihypertensi...
The risk of postpartum readmission for hypertensive complication was reduced by 65% when patients were discharged on nifedipine monotherapy and 56% with combined nifedipine and labetalol treatment whe...
Previous studies suggest that having a marital partner with hypertension is associated with an individual's increased risk of hypertension, however this has not been investigated in sub-Saharan Africa...
To explore whether there is spousal concordance for hypertension and hypertension control in Namibia....
Couples data from the 2013 Namibia Demographic and Health Survey were analysed. Bivariable and multivariable logistic regression models were used to explore the odds of individual's hypertension based...
The unadjusted odds ratio of 1.57 (CI 1.10-2.24) for hypertension among individuals (both sexes) whose partner had hypertension compared to those whose partner did not have hypertension, was attenuate...
Having a partner with hypertension was positively associated with having hypertension among married Namibian adults, although not statistically significant after adjustment. Partner's hypertension con...
