Effects of therapy with nifedipine GITS or atenolol on mental stress-induced ischemic left ventricular dysfunction.
OBJECTIVES We sought to determine the effect of nifedipine gastrointestinal therapeutic system (GITS) or atenolol on ischemic left ventricular dysfunction induced by mental stress. BACKGROUND The efficacy of conventional antianginal therapy in preventing myocardial ischemia induced by mental stress is unknown. METHODS Nifedipine GITS, atenolol and placebo were administered to 15 subjects wi...
متن کاملCorrelation between the morning hypertension on ambulatory blood pressure monitoring and the left ventricular mass in children
PURPOSE Although high morning blood pressure (BP) is known to be associated with the onset of cardiovascular events in adults, data on its effects in children with hypertension are limited. Our retrospective study aimed to define the clinical characteristics of children with morning hypertension (MH) and to determine its associated factors. METHODS We reviewed 31 consecutive patients with hyp...
متن کاملBody mass index and ambulatory blood pressure monitoring.
Body Mass Index and Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring To the Editor: Kotsis et al evaluated the relationship between body mass index and various ambulatory blood pressure parameters in referred untreated subjects (Hypertension, April 2005 issue).1 They report increased incidence of white-coat hypertension and nondipping pattern among obese subjects. We believe these findings were produced by...
متن کاملLeft ventricular hypertrophy and ambulatory blood pressure monitoring in chronic renal failure.
BACKGROUND Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is both common and an important predictor of risk of death in end-stage renal failure (ESRF). In mild to moderate chronic renal failure (CRF), the timing of onset of LVH and the factors involved in its initial development have not been fully elucidated. The present study was undertaken to examine the prevalence and potential determinants of echocard...
متن کاملAmbulatory blood pressure and left ventricular mass index in hypertensive children.
To determine whether ambulatory blood pressure is more predictive of left ventricular hypertrophy than is casual blood pressure in hypertensive children, echocardiography and ambulatory blood pressure data from 37 untreated hypertensive children were analyzed. Left ventricular mass was calculated using the Devereux equation, left ventricular mass index was calculated as left ventricular mass (i...
