Although self-measured blood pressure (SMBP) monitoring is recommended by evidence-based guidelines, adoption remains uneven in safety-net health systems. We conducted a cross-sectional analysis in an urban safety-net health system to assess factors associated with documented SMBP adoption. Using electronic health record (EHR) data from patients included in a safety-net health system's hypertension registry, we defined documented SMBP adoption as documentation of at least one patient-reported value in the EHR. We evaluated factors associated with documented SMBP adoption using sequential multivariable logistic regression and hierarchical modeling to estimate patient-, provider-, and clinic-level variation. We analyzed 15 937 patients cared for by 283 providers across 12 clinics. Twenty-six percent (4186) of patients had documented SMBP adoption. In the full model, patients aged 75 years and older [vs. 18-34 years old] (aOR 2.37, 95% CI 1.62-3.55) and those with an activated patient portal (aOR 1.36, 95% CI 1.25-1.49) were more likely to have documented SMBP adoption, while patients experiencing homelessness (aOR 0.72, 95% CI 0.60-0.87) were less likely. Substantial variation in documented SMBP adoption was observed across clinics. In the hierarchical model, 75% of the variance in documented SMBP adoption was attributable to patient-level factors, 19% to clinics, and 6% to providers. Given that nearly one-quarter of the variation in documented SMBP adoption was attributable to nonpatient factors, clinic- and provider-level workflows may be modifiable targets to improve equitable uptake and documentation of SMBP monitoring in safety-net health systems.","PeriodicalId":520663,"journal":{"name":"Journal of clinical hypertension (Greenwich, Conn.)","volume":"28 6","pages":"e70318"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2026-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148280724","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We conducted a preliminary assessment of the effect of health literacy on utilization of a virtual coaching agent, a computerized animation to converse with patient users, to promote HBPM. We recruited individuals from primary care practices in rural Pennsylvania; measured health literacy with the Brief Health Literacy Screen (BRIEF) and the Newest Vital Sign (NVS); and monitored virtual coach interactions and frequency of HBPM for 26 weeks. Participants (n = 59; age 58 ± 15 years, 59% female, 71% < bachelor's degree) had 1.03 ± 1.05 agent interactions and 5.4 ± 3.6 HBPM sessions/week over 1487 total participant-weeks. Virtual coach use was associated with greater odds of achieving the target HBPM frequency of 4 readings per week (Odds Ratio [OR] per interaction, 1.10 [95% Confidence Interval [CI]: 1.01-1.20]). This association was moderated by health literacy as measured by the BRIEF (interaction p = 0.01); with a greater magnitude among those with limited/marginal literacy (OR 1.31 per interaction, 95% CI: 1.10-1.57). NVS did not significantly moderate the association (interaction p = 0.12). In this preliminary cohort, use of a virtual coach was associated with higher adherence to HBPM in individuals with limited health literacy as measured by the BRIEF.

However, universal NT-proBNP testing is infeasible and inefficient. We analyzed data from 4642 U.S. adults with hypertension in NHANES 1999-2004. Heart stress, a biomarker-defined pre-HF state, was defined using age-specific NT-proBNP cutoffs. Multivariable logistic regression was used to identify factors associated with prevalent heart stress, and a point-based score was constructed. Model discrimination and calibration were internally validated using 1000 bootstrapped samples. Heart stress was present in 31% of individuals with hypertension. Factors associated with heart stress included older age, current smoking, prior coronary heart disease/myocardial infarction, higher systolic blood pressure, lower diastolic blood pressure, and reduced estimated glomerular filtration rate. The derivation model showed acceptable discrimination (AUC 0.71; 95% CI 0.70-0.73) and good calibration. An optimal cutoff of 6 points was identified using the Youden index and was internally validated (AUC 0.71; 95% CI 0.69-0.74). Model performance was consistent across race/ethnicity and body mass index subgroups, with relatively lower discrimination in females than in males (AUC 0.66 vs. 0.78). When stratified by a predicted heart stress probability threshold of 50%, individuals in the higher-probability group had higher cumulative risk of all-cause (hazard ratio 3.90; 95% CI 3.55-4.29) and cardiovascular mortality (hazard ratio 5.18; 95% CI 4.44-6.04) than those in the lower-probability group. These findings suggest that a simple model using readily obtainable clinical variables can help identify individuals with hypertension who are likely to have prevalent heart stress, offering a practical strategy to guide selective NT-proBNP testing.","PeriodicalId":520663,"journal":{"name":"Journal of clinical hypertension (Greenwich, Conn.)","volume":"28 6","pages":"e70310"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2026-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13280469/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148280756","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Patients received either esaxerenone or trichlormethiazide for 12 weeks and were grouped by baseline BMI: <25 kg/m2 (low) or ≥25 kg/m2 (high). The primary endpoint was change in morning home systolic/diastolic BP (SBP/DBP). Among 585 patients, 157 and 135 with low BMI received esaxerenone and trichlormethiazide, respectively; in the high BMI subgroup, 138 and 155 patients received esaxerenone or trichlormethiazide. The least squares mean between-group differences (esaxerenone-trichlormethiazide) were -2.1 mmHg (95% confidence interval [-4.1, -0.1])/-0.1 mmHg (-1.2, 1.0) and -2.0 mmHg (-4.0, -0.1)/-1.0 mmHg (-2.2, 0.2) for SBP/DBP in the low and high BMI subgroups, respectively. Bedtime home and office BP showed comparable tendencies. The incidence of serum potassium <3.5 mEq/L was more common with trichlormethiazide, whereas serum potassium ≥5.5 mEq/L occurred more frequently with esaxerenone; serum potassium never reached ≥6.0 mEq/L in any subgroup. Both drugs showed transient, modest decreases in creatinine-based estimated glomerular filtration rate that stabilized by Week 12.

Successful catheterization was confirmed by cortisol ratio (the ratio of the cortisol concentration of each adrenal vein to that of the peripheral vein), and the distribution characteristics of the RAVO were recorded.
