Yet another study reports poor control of elevated blood pressure.
The article by Sorlie et al.1 (this issue) provides estimates of the prevalence of hypertension and of awareness, treatment, and control among the Hispanic community. Previous publications from this study have described the study design and recruitment and baseline measurements2 and the distribution of risk factors and prevalent cardiovascular disease.3 The reports documented very substantial v...
متن کاملPoor long-term blood pressure control after intracerebral hemorrhage.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Hypertension is the most important risk factor associated with intracerebral hemorrhage. We explored racial differences in blood pressure (BP) control after intracerebral hemorrhage and assessed predictors of BP control at presentation, 30 days, and 1 year in a prospective cohort study. METHODS Subjects with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage were identified from the ...
متن کاملSelective contribution of two types of carotid sinus baroreceptors to the control of blood pressure.
This study was performed to determine if selective elimination of afferent input from two different types of previously described baroreceptors altered the ability of the dog to regulate blood pressure (BP), examining specifically if there was differential loss of baroreceptor control of tonic levels of baseline pressure versus dynamic changes in pressure. In the first series of experiments in ...
متن کاملContribution of bradykinin to maintenance of normal blood pressure.
The purpose of these experiments was to investigate whether the vasodilator tissue hormone bradykinin contributes to the maintenance of normal blood pressure. A newly synthesized peptide competitive antagonist of bradykinin, the compound Arg-Pro-Hyp-Gly-Phe-Ser-DPhe-Phe-Arg-trifluoracetic acid (B3852), capable of inhibiting the depressor effect of exogenous bradykinin by over 50%, was infused i...
