Ambulatory arterial stiffness index and 24-hour ambulatory pulse pressure as predictors of mortality in Ohasama, Japan.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Ambulatory arterial stiffness index (AASI) and pulse pressure (PP) are indexes of arterial stiffness and can be computed from 24-hour blood pressure recordings. We investigated the prognostic value of AASI and PP in relation to fatal outcomes. METHODS In 1542 Ohasama residents (baseline age, 40 to 93 years; 63.4% women), we applied Cox regression to relate mortality to ...
متن کاملA loss-of-function polymorphism in the human P2X4 receptor is associated with increased pulse pressure.
The P2X4 receptor is involved in endothelium-dependent changes in large arterial tone in response to shear stress and is, therefore, potentially relevant to arterial compliance and pulse pressure. Four identified nonsynonymous polymorphisms in P2RX4 were reproduced in recombinantly expressed human P2X4. Electrophysiological studies showed that one of these, the Tyr315>Cys mutation (rs28360472),...
متن کاملRenal function and structure in a rat model of arterial calcification and increased pulse pressure.
Clinical studies suggest a strong link between tissue calcification and pressure hyperpulsatility in end stage renal disease patients. Using a Wistar rat model of arterial elastocalcinosis and hyperpulsatility [vitamin D and nicotine (VDN) treatment], we evaluated the relative importance of tissue calcification and hyperpulsatility in the etiology of renal failure. VDN rats showed significant i...
متن کاملNew problems raised by increased pulse pressure.
There is now ample evidence that brachial artery pulse pressure (PP) is an independent predictor of cardiovascular (CV) outcomes, principally in subjects aged .59. This finding has been observed not only in European but also in American and Asiatic populations. The results of PROCAM, which involves a 10-year follow-up of more than 20 000 subjects, allow new prospective views on this finding. In...
متن کاملThe Association of Pediatric Obesity With Nocturnal Non-Dipping on 24-Hour Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring.
BACKGROUND Obesity has been linked with abnormal nocturnal dipping of blood pressure (BP) in adults, which in turn is associated with poor cardiovascular outcomes. There are few data regarding abnormal dipping status in the obese pediatric population. The goal of this study was to further describe the relationship between obesity and non-dipping status on ambulatory blood pressure monitor (ABPM...
