Alcohol Consumption and Vascular Variability Anomalies (VVAs) and Disorders (VVDs) Detected by C-ABPM

چکیده
Alterations of the circadian rhythms in blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) have been associated with an increased cardiovascular disease risk. The influence of alcohol consumption on the circadian rhythm characteristics of BP is here examined, and the extent to which such alteration of the circadian BP rhythm contributes to cardiovascular disease

Diagnosing vascular variability anomalies, not only MESOR-hypertension.
Chronobiology is the study of biological rhythms. Chronomics investigates interactions with environmental cycles in a genetically coded autoresonance of the biosphere with wrangling space and terrestrial weather. Analytical global and local methods applied to human blood pressure records of around-the-clock measurements covering decades detect physiological-physical interactions, a small yet me...
متن کاملChronobiologically Interpreted Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring in Health and Disease
To detect vascular variability anomalies (VVAs), a blood pressure and heart rate profile around the clock for at least 7 days is a start. As a minimum, measurement every 60 or preferably 30 minutes for a week is needed, to be continued if abnormality is found, to assess the about 24-hour (circadian) variability that exists in all individuals. As a first dividend, one then also obtains a glimpse...

However, attempts to reproduce these findings by ambulatory BP monitoring (ABPM) have shown inconsistent results. The aim of the present study was to assess the effect of 1 month of proven abstinence from alcohol on the 24-hour BP profile in heavy alcohol drinkers. Forty-two men who were heavy drinkers (>...
