Jan A. Staessen,Robert Fagard,Lutgarde Thijs,Hilde Celis,G G Arabidze,Willem H. Birkenhäger,Christopher J. Bulpitt,P. W. De Leeuw,Colin T. Dollery,Astrid E. Fletcher,Françoise Forette,Gastone Leonetti,C Nachev,ET O'Brien,Joseph B. Rosenfeld,Jose L. Rodicio,Jaakko Tuomilehto,Alberto Zanchetti +17 more
TL;DR: Among elderly patients with isolated systolic hypertension, antihypertensive drug treatment starting with nitrendipine reduces the rate of cardiovascular complications and may prevent 29 strokes or 53 major cardiovascular endpoints.
Journal ArticleDOI
Daytime and Nighttime Blood Pressure as Predictors of Death and Cause-Specific Cardiovascular Events in Hypertension
Robert Fagard,Hilde Celis,Lutgarde Thijs,Jan A. Staessen,Denis Clement,Marc De Buyzere,Dirk De Bacquer +6 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that nighttime blood pressure is in general a better predictor of outcome than daytime pressure in hypertensive patients, and the night–day blood pressure ratio predicts mortality, even after adjustment for 24-hour blood pressure.

Josep Redon,Empar Lurbe,Robert Fagard,Hilde Celis,Lutgarde Thijs,Jan A. Staessen,Denis Clement,Marc De Buyzere,Dirk De Bacquer +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors performed a meta-analysis on individual data of 3468 patients from 4 prospective studies performed in Europe and concluded that nighttime blood pressure is a better predictor of outcome than daytime pressure in hypertensive patients, and the night-day blood pressure ratio predicts mortality, even after adjustment for 24-hour blood pressure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Environmental exposure to cadmium and risk of cancer: a prospective population-based study
Tim S. Nawrot,Michelle Plusquin,Janneke G. F. Hogervorst,Harry Roels,Hilde Celis,Lutgarde Thijs,Jaco Vangronsveld,Etienne Van Hecke,Jan A. Staessen +8 more
TL;DR: Overall cancer risk was significantly associated with a doubling of 24-h cadmium excretion, and historical pollution from non-ferrous smelters continues to present a serious health hazard, necessitating targeted preventive measures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antihypertensive Treatment Based on Blood Pressure Measurement at Home or in the Physician's Office: A Randomized Controlled Trial
TL;DR: The findings support a stepwise strategy for the evaluation of BP in which self-measurement and ambulatory monitoring are complementary to conventional office measurement and highlight the need for prospective outcome studies to establish the normal range of home-measured BP.
