Filter by:To explore the relationship between perioperative blood pressure and catecholamine concentrations in adrenal venous blood and peripheral venous blood in hypertensive patients with primary aldosteronism (PA) who underwent percutaneous selective adrenal artery embolization (SAAE). In order to elucidate the related phenomena and possible mechanisms of blood pressure fluctuations caused by SAAE treatment in hypertensive patients with PA.
A development and pilot test of an app targeting persons with hypertension. Content in the app was based on persons with hypertensions experiences and a literature review. The participants experience of using the app as well as testing a instrument for medication adherence.
Hypertension is the most frequent chronic pathology in France and in the world. It is one of the main modifiable cardiovascular risk factors. In France, 50% of treated hypertensives are uncontrolled and only 30% of treated patients are fully adherent to their antihypertensive treatment. Poor adherence to drug treatments is considered as one of the main causes of non-control of hypertension. Since 2018, a new profession has entered the French healthcare system: Advanced Practice Nurses (APN). They have many broad skills, at the interface of nursing and medical exercises. The purpose of this interventional study is to assess the impact of APN on blood pressure (BP) control in the context of usual care of hypertension thanks to a better adhesion of patients and a better therapeutic alliance. The hypothesis formulated is that an individual APN intervention, included in a usual hypertension management, improves BP control.
The proposed study is a prospective, observational, investigator and patient blinded study comparing the results of blood volume measurement using the FDA-cleared Daxor BVA-100 device to the Daxor BVA-200 device. Data from this study may be pooled with data from studies with similar design conducted at other sites, for the purposes of an FDA medical device submission.
The goal of this study is to establish a diagnostic accuracy of an immediate pressor response to oral salt (IPROS) to identify salt sensitivity of blood pressure (SSBP)
Main scientific hypotheses of the project: 1. The level of intestinal microflora translocation markers and biomarkers of intestinal wall damage the in the blood serum correlates with the level of intra-abdominal pressure, regardless of the genesis of intra-abdominal hypertension. 2. The critical levels of intestinal microflora translocation markers and biomarkers of the intestinal wall damage can be used for predicting an unfavorable outcome in the multiple organ dysfunction syndrome. 3. The revealed critical level of intra-abdominal pressure is an additional prognostic sign in assessing the course of the multiple organ dysfunction syndrome. . Project objectives: 1. To evaluate the indicators of biomarkers of translocation of the intestinal microflora and biomarkers of the intestinal wall damage in the systemic circulation during the development and course of the syndrome of multiple organ dysfunction. Based on the obtained critical levels of markers of translocation of the intestinal microflora and markers of the intestinal wall damage, it will be possible to predict adverse outcomes in patients with multiple organ dysfunction syndrome. 2. To identify differences in the level of markers of bacterial translocation of the intestinal microflora and the level of markers of the intestinal wall damage in patients with intra-abdominal hypertension. In patients with multiple organ dysfunction syndrome, the levels of biomarkers of bacterial translocation of the intestinal microflora and biomarkers of intestinal wall damage in the blood serum correlate with intra-abdominal pressure indicators, regardless of the etiology of intra-abdominal hypertension. 3. Assess the impact of the level of intra-abdominal pressure on the development and course of the syndrome of multiple organ dysfunction. To assess the course of the syndrome of multiple organ dysfunction, an additional prognostic marker is the determination of the critical level of intra-abdominal pressure. 4. Determine the critical levels of biomarkers of intestinal microflora translocation and biomarkers of intestinal wall damage to predict the outcome of diseases accompanied by the development of multiple organ dysfunction syndrome. The obtained critical levels of biomarkers of translocation of the intestinal microflora and biomarkers of the intestinal wall damage will be significant indicators in the syndrome of multiple organ dysfunction for predicting an unfavorable outcome.
The objective of this clinical study is to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of BR1019A and BR1019B combination therapy in Patients with Essential Hypertension and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
The long-term goal of our work is to evaluate the effect of intensive postpartum blood pressure control on maternal cardiovascular health, risk of chronic hypertension, and reversal of vascular dysfunction generated by hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, thus attenuating the lifelong trajectory of cardiovascular disease risk.
Obesity and lack of exercise are one of the reasons for high blood pressure. Exercise can reduce the risk of cardiovascular events by reducing weight and blood pressure. The precise formulation of exercise prescription by cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) can effectively control hypertension. Our research group has formulated 50 "exercise prescriptions for hypertension population" in the early stage, but how to further effectively implement them needs to be discussed. Based on the previous experience of undertaking the project "Exercise Prescription for Hypertensive People" of General Administration of Sport of the People's Republic of China, this research group discussed the important role of intelligent information management in the clinical effect evaluation and effective implementation of exercise prescription for hypertension; To explore the feasibility of making exercise prescription for hypertension based on 6-min walking test, and whether it is not inferior to or equivalent to the accuracy and effectiveness of making exercise prescription by CPET. The relevant results will lay a foundation for exploring the broader adaptation of hypertension exercise prescription to the population.
Xerostomia, the subjective feeling of oral dryness, is a symptom most frequently accompanied by either decreased salivary flow or an altered composition of saliva. Hyposalivation, on the other hand, is the objective measured reduction in salivary flow rate. Xerostomia is a relatively common complaint, particularly among older people, and can lead to major consequences with regard to the quality of their general and oral health and wellbeing. Xerostomia has a variety of possible etiological factors; it is generally classified as having primary and secondary causes. Primary causes comprise conditions that directly affect the salivary glands and induce xerostomia like, Sjogren's syndrome, diabetes mellitus type 1 and 2, thyroid disease, adrenal pathology, renal or hepatic diseases, hepatitis C virus infection, and HIV disease.
