Journal ArticleDOI

All-cause and cardiovascular mortality in relation to changing heart rate during treatment of hypertensive patients with electrocardiographic left ventricular hypertrophy.

TL;DR: The value of serial assessment of HR for improved risk stratification in hypertensive patients with ECG left ventricular hypertrophy is supported, independent of treatment modality, blood pressure lowering, regression of ECG LVH and changing QRS duration.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characteristics of 15314 Hypertensive Patients at High Coronary Risk. The VALUE Trial

TL;DR: The randomized population is now being treated (goal blood pressure < 140/90 mmHg) in adherence with the protocol until at least 1450 patients experience primary cardiac endpoint defined as clinically evident or aborted myocardial infarction, hospitalization for heart failure or death caused by coronary heart disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Relationship between hemorrheologic factors and insulin sensitivity in healthy young men.

TL;DR: The present study found statistically significant negative correlations between the glucose disposal rate (GDR) and calculated whole-blood viscosity at both high and low shear rates, and suggested hemorrheologic factors as correlates to insulin sensitivity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Awareness of Hypertension Increases Blood Pressure and Sympathetic Responses to Cold Pressor Test

TL;DR: Psychological stress caused by the awareness of hypertension may increase blood pressure and sympathetic responses to a provocative maneuver in subjects unaware of their blood pressure status.
