Thus, identifying those at risk is crucial, in order to intervene early and reduce future cardiovascular risk. This study aims to examine the role of sympathetic nervous system (SNS), aortic stiffness, and blood pressure (BP) response to exercise as predictors for development of hypertension in individuals with HNBP.Methods: One hundred individuals with HNBP were included in the study. Baseline anthropometric characteristics, BP levels, an electrocardiogram, and an echocardiogram were obtained. In order to evaluate the effect of SNS, aortic stiffness, and exercise response in the transition from the prehypertensive to hypertensive phenotype, we measured the levels of muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA), pulse wave velocity (PWV), and exaggerated BP response (EBPR) to cardiopulmonary exercise, respectively.Results: At 3 years follow up, 40 patients (40%) developed hypertension. Baseline characteristics were similar between the two groups. Those who developed hypertension had sympathetic overactivation, as indicated by the higher mean values of MSNA (35 ± 4.4 vs 28 ± 3.8 bursts per minute; P = 0.003), increased aortic stiffness, and PWV (8.2 ± 0.7 vs 7.2 ± 0.5 m/s; P < 0.001), as well as an EBPR to exercise ( P < 0.001).Conclusion: Increased values of MSNA, PWV, and EBPR were found to be statistically related with hypertension development in HNBP phenotypes.

This study aimed to assess the prevalence of hypotension in precapillary pulmonary hypertension patients with preserved right ventricle function receiving pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH)-specific medication with 24-h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) and to compare the burden of hypotension between patients receiving PAH-specific monotherapy and dual combination therapy (DCT).Methods: This cross-sectional study included 44 precapillary pulmonary hypertension patients who underwent clinical assessment, echocardiography, and 24-h ABPM. Patients were grouped according to the type of treatment regimen: monotherapy or DCT. Hypotension was defined as the occurrence of at least one valid measurement of SBP < 100 mmHg.Results: Mean 24-h, daytime, and nighttime SBP were significantly lower in patients receiving DCT compared to patients receiving monotherapy ( P < 0.05 for all). Episodes with SBP < 100 mmHg during the 24-h, daytime, and nighttime periods were significantly more common in the patients receiving DCT (21.26 ± 9.33 vs 12.26 ± 3.61, 15.58 ± 8.17 vs 8.57 ± 3.60, 5.68 ± 2.63 vs 3.70 ± 2.27, respectively, P < 0.05 for all).Conclusion: Patients on DCT who had relatively advanced pulmonary vascular disease have a higher burden of hypotension.

This study aimed to compare blood pressure and heart rate responses during the 10-minute duration of NLT and HUTT.Methods: Eighty young individuals (aged 22.0 ± 3.1 years) with PACS underwent both tests, with a 30-minute interval between tests. Systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), and heart rate (HR) were measured every minute, and the differences between supine and upright positions were analyzed.Results: There were no significant differences in SBP changes between HUTT and NLT (-7.8 ± 6.2 vs. -7.1 ± 7.5 mmHg) with a mean difference of -0.7 ± 9.0 mmHg.

We study whether a pictorial BP log is associated with improved adherence to medical management and BP control.Method: A sample of mostly Blacks and Hispanics with uncontrolled hypertension were either provided with a pictorial log ( n = 75) or recommended to complete a log to record their BP ( n = 75). The primary outcome was bringing any BP log to a subsequent follow-up visit. Secondary outcomes were BP values, BP control, and adherence to antihypertensive medication.Results: The pictorial log-provided group had a significantly greater percentage than the no log-provided group for bringing a log to a visit within 6 months (53.3 versus 8.0%, P < 0.001). The pictorial log-provided had a significantly ( P = 0.03) greater mean reduction of diastolic BP ( M = -5.2, SD = 10.98) than the no log-provided group ( M = -1.0, SD = 9.95). There were no significant differences in BP control or adherence to antihypertensive medication between the groups. Improved adherence to antihypertensive medication was observed in patients who were adherent to bringing any BP log to a visit (odds ratio: 4.59, 95% confidence interval:1.16-18.10, P = 0.03).Conclusion: Pictorial logs were associated with bringing such logs to subsequent visits and for reduced diastolic BP. However, pictorial logs were not associated with improved BP control or adherence to antihypertensive medication but rather any log was associated with greater adherence to antihypertensive medication. We recommend the use of BP logs of any type for successful BP management.","PeriodicalId":8950,"journal":{"name":"Blood Pressure Monitoring","volume":" ","pages":"97-103"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143655967","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
