Thromboembolism is a rare complication of primary nephortic syndrome. Both venous and arterial thrombosis might occur in steroid responsive and steroid resistant nephrotic syndrome. This is the report of an infant with nephrotic syndrome and renovascular hypertension, complicated with asymptomatic intracardiac thrombus and managed appropriately with medical treatment.

The aim of the study was to evaluate long-term effect renal sympathetic denervation (RSD) on 24h ambulatory blood pressure measurement (ABPM) and load (BP load) in patients with resistant hypertension. included 32 treatment-resistant hypertension performed successful RSD. significant both terms daytime, nighttime 24-hour arterial pressure, most pronounced nocturnal pressure. In addition mean BP...

Regular physical exercise is broadly recommended by current European and American hypertension guidelines. It remains elusive, however, whether exercise leads to a reduction of blood pressure in resistant hypertension as well. The present randomized controlled trial examines the cardiovascular effects of aerobic exercise on resistant hypertension. Resistant hypertension was defined as a blood p...

Data describing the use of recommended antihypertensive agents in the resistant hypertension population are limited. Treatment recommendations for resistant hypertension include maximizing diuretic therapy by using chlorthalidone and/or adding an aldosterone antagonist. Additional recommendations include combining antihypertensive agents from different drug classes. This retrospective cohort st...

Hypertension remains a major cause of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality globally. Difficulties faced by clinicians to obtain adequate blood pressure control in patients with resistant hypertension have led the development alternative device-based treatment methods, one which is renal artery denervation. In current paper, results study carried out Department Institute Cardiology regarding e...

The risk of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in patients with resistant hypertension (RH) has not been well-quantified. We sought to evaluate the OSA RH compared those treated but non-resistant (non-RH) using a time-dependent-exposure analysis. conducted retrospective cohort study (hypertension diagnosis + ≥2 antihypertensive drug claims within 1 year) IBM MarketScan® commercial database from Janu...

Ever since Schlaich et al.1 first reported on a patient with a blood pressure of 161/107 mm Hg (despite treatment with seven different antihypertensive drugs) that decreased to 127/81 mm Hg after renal denervation, the medical community has been enamored with this procedure. Resistant hypertension evolved into a fashionable diagnosis, and the number of publications pertaining to it grew rapidly...

Hypertension patients (1781), drawn from seven large employee groups in and around New York City, were studied to determine the prevalence of resistant hypertension among them. The blood pressure criteria for resistance (potential resistance) were failure to reach and maintain a blood pressure less than 160/95 mm Hg on two separate occasions during at least 1 year of treatment. Confirmed resist...

One of the most common reasons that physicians and other health care providers refer a patient to a hypertension specialist is because that patient’s blood pressure (BP) is not at goal. The term that has become most commonly used now to classify and define these patients is ‘‘resistant hypertension,’’ but some still refer to these patients as having refractory hypertension. A resistant hyperten...
