Here, we tested whether this model can reduce hospital admissions without increasing complication rates among women with suspected or confirmed preeclampsia.METHODSIn this multicenter, open-label, randomized controlled trial conducted at 5 Dutch medical centers, women with suspected or confirmed preeclampsia were randomly assigned to the intervention group, where admission was guided by the PRERISK score using a 5% cutoff, or to the control group receiving routine care with a concealed PRERISK score. Two co-primary outcomes were the incidence of maternal-fetal preeclampsia-related complications (noninferiority) and the proportion of women with a hospitalization ratio (=admission days/inclusion days) ≤0.05 (superiority).RESULTSThe intervention and control groups included 442 and 435 women, respectively. In the intention-to-treat analysis, complications occurred in 41.6% of the intervention group versus 39.5% of the control group (adjusted relative risk 1.06 [95% CI, 0.92-1.22]; P=0.43). The proportion of women achieving a hospitalization ratio ≤0.05 was 23.6% in the intervention group and 26.3% in the control group (adjusted relative risk, 0.89 [95% CI, 0.71-1.13]; P=0.34). The latter was comparable in the per-protocol analysis (adjusted relative risk, 0.87 [95% CI, 0.64-1.19]; P=0.38), while in this analysis, complications occurred in 47.8% of the intervention group (n=251) versus 41.7% of the control group (n=365; adjusted relative risk 1.19 [95% CI, 1.03-1.38]; P=0.02).CONCLUSIONSRoutine screening with the PRERISK score and a 5% cutoff in patients with suspected or confirmed preeclampsia does not decrease hospitalization and is therefore not recommended.REGISTRATIONURL: https://onderzoekmetmensen.nl/nl/trial/48687; Unique identifier: NL63386.078.17, NL-OMON48687.","PeriodicalId":13042,"journal":{"name":"Hypertension","volume":"20 1","pages":"827-838"},"PeriodicalIF":8.3,"publicationDate":"2025-04-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143846377","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many are investigating pulse wave analysis with or without pulse arrival time in which machine learning is applied to pulsatile waveforms obtained with mobile devices (eg, wristbands, smartphones) to estimate BP. These methods generally require individual user calibration with cuff BP measurements or demographics (eg, age, sex). This calibration makes it difficult to evaluate the method's accuracy, and many studies claiming accuracy used inadequate testing procedures. Yet, publications and regulatory-cleared devices continue to rise, seemingly implying technological advancements. An update is provided on the flurry of activity in cuffless BP technologies over the last 2 to 3 years, covering the clinical need, the latest devices, recent publications based on pulse wave analysis and pulse arrival time, progress in developing validation standards for cuffless BP devices, and recent publications on other cuffless BP measurement principles. Despite the high volume of research and development, to date, there is no compelling evidence that pulse wave analysis and pulse arrival time can provide significant added value in BP measurement accuracy beyond the cuff BP or demographic data for calibration. Thus, it is reasonable to at least be skeptical of published and future studies on pulse wave analysis and pulse arrival time for cuffless BP measurement with uncertain testing procedures. It is important to focus on establishing robust validation standards for cuffless BP devices requiring individual user calibration and also pursuing cuffless and calibration-free BP measurement methodologies going forward.","PeriodicalId":13042,"journal":{"name":"Hypertension","volume":"6 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":8.3,"publicationDate":"2025-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143836493","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Excessive salt intake and salt sensitivity have long been believed to be risk factors for elevated nighttime blood pressure in Asians. For various reasons, the control rate of nocturnal hypertension is low, for example, insufficient monitoring and inappropriate therapeutic regimens. With the increasing evidence and possibility of management, it is highly relevant to have thorough discussions among Asian experts and to reach a consensus on major aspects in regard to the management of nocturnal hypertension. The consensus involves 5 aspects, including definitions and diagnosis, epidemiology, risk and risk factors, treatment, and future perspectives.","PeriodicalId":13042,"journal":{"name":"Hypertension","volume":"26 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":8.3,"publicationDate":"2025-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143822608","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

SMAD4 is an essential downstream effector of BMPR2 signaling, but whether and how it participates in pulmonary hypertension are unclear.METHODSGlobally and vascular cell-specifically inducible knockout mouse models were used to examine the role of SMAD4 deficiency in differential cell compartments in the development of pulmonary hypertension. Single-cell transcriptomic analysis in combination with in vitro cell function measurements was conducted to provide mechanistic insights into pulmonary hypertension pathogenesis.RESULTSAdult mice with Smad4 global deletion or endothelial cell-specific deletion spontaneously developed pulmonary hypertension manifestations, characterized by elevated right ventricle systolic pressure and excessive muscularization in pulmonary distal vessels, which were accompanied by other cardiovascular abnormalities. By contrast, mice with smooth muscle cell-specific Smad4 deletion had no pulmonary hypertension but rather displayed evident aortic aneurysm and dissection. At the cellular level, SMAD4 deficiency led to impairment of both endothelial cell-cell and cell-matrix adhesions and disorganized ECM (extracellular matrix), resulting in increased vascular leak and weakened endothelium-matrix attachment. Notably, endothelial Itgb1 deletion mimicked the impact of endothelial Smad4 loss on pulmonary hypertension. Finally, enhancing endothelial cell adhesion and ECM assembly by administrating an MMP (matrix metallopeptidase) inhibitor ilomastat could alleviate the pulmonary hypertension manifestations caused by endothelial SMAD4 deficiency.CONCLUSIONSSMAD4 deficiency in endothelial cells, but not smooth muscle cells, plays a pathogenic role in pulmonary hypertension, via dampening endothelial cell-cell and cell-matrix adhesions and ECM organization.","PeriodicalId":13042,"journal":{"name":"Hypertension","volume":"101 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":8.3,"publicationDate":"2025-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143822609","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
