Importance of blood pressure control over a 24-hour period.
BACKGROUND The circadian rhythm of blood pressure (BP) is associated with a high span during the awake period and a low span during the sleep period. Of interest is that cardiovascular (CV) events occur more frequently in the early morning period, the time when BP and heart rate rise steeply. OBJECTIVE To provide an overview of circadian BP and its correlation with adverse clinical outcomes a...

METHODS A total of 44 patients seen by a home care program were studied. Protocol 1 a) blood pressure was measured by the patient, a physician and a nurse during a regular home visi...
متن کاملTrends in systolic blood pressure in the thousand aviator cohort over a twenty-four-year period.
SUMMARY A cohort of 1,056 normotensive, healthy, young men initially examined in 1940 at the mean age of 24 years was followed at three periodic intervals through 1964. The cohort demonstrated little rise in mean systolic blood pressure beyond age 35; a portion of this cohort showed no change of systolic blood pressure with age. If the men are classified by quintile according to systolic blood ...
متن کاملWithin- and Between-Child Variation in Repeated Urinary Pesticide Metabolite Measurements over a 1-Year Period
BACKGROUND Children are exposed to pesticides from many sources and routes, including dietary and incidental ingestion, dermal absorption, and inhalation. Linking health outcomes to these exposures using urinary metabolites requires understanding temporal variability within subjects to avoid exposure misclassification. OBJECTIVES We characterized the within- and between-child variability of u...
متن کاملRelationship of blood pressure in 20-39-year-old men to subsequent blood pressure and incidence of hypertension over a 30-year observation period.
The objective of this investigation was to determine the relationship of blood pressure (BP) in young men, ages 20-39 years, to their subsequent BP from the perspective of BP tracking, position in BP distribution and later evidence of hypertensive BP values. Since 1948, the Manitoba Study group has followed 3983 men, 90% of whom were 20-39 years old at entry. BP in persons not prescribed antihy...
