The mitochondria-targeted antioxidant MitoQ modulates oxidative stress, inflammation and leukocyte-endothelium interactions in leukocytes isolated fr…

2016

It is not known if the mitochondria-targeted antioxidants such as mitoquinone (MitoQ) can modulate oxidative stress and leukocyte-endothelium interactions in T2D patients. We aimed to evaluate the beneficial effect of MitoQ on oxidative stress parameters and leukocyte-endothelium interactions in leukocytes of T2D patients. The study population consisted of 98 T2D patients and 71 control subjects. We assessed metabolic and anthropometric parameters, mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, glutathione peroxidase 1 (GPX-1), NFκB-p65, TNFα and leukocyte-endothelium interactions. Diabetic patients exhibited higher weight, BMI, waist circumference, SBP, DBP, glucose, insulin, HOMA…

Isolated Systolic Hypertension in the Young

2019

Elevated systolic blood pressure with normal diastolic blood pressure is the most prevalent type of hypertension in young people. The prevalence of isolated systolic hypertension reported among youth ranges widely as a result of the differences in population characteristics such as age, ethnicity, and obesity. Even though it is not an unusual condition, there is still debate in the literature about the clinical significance of an isolated increase in systolic blood pressure detected in the first decades of life. The reported phenotypic characteristics of subjects with isolated systolic hypertension are rather scarce and many relevant pieces of information are still elusive. Further studies …

Spontaneous platelet aggregation as a predictive risk factor for vascular occlusions in healthy volunteers? Results of the HAPARG Study

1999

The HAPARG Study (haemostatic parameters as risk factors in healthy volunteers) was performed in a subset of volunteers taking part in the MARISK Study (Mainzer Risikoindikatoren Studie fur die koronare Herzkrankheit) sponsored by the German Ministry of Research and started in 1984. A previous study (Yamanishi et al., Thromb Haemostas 1985;54:539-543) had shown that spontaneously enhanced platelet aggregation as measured with the PAT-III-test and higher fibrinogen concentrations are significant risk factors for new vascular occlusions in diabetic patients. It was the aim of the HAPARG Study to establish whether spontaneous platelet aggregation and other hemostatic variables are independent …
