Managing Resistant Hypertension: Not Just a Question of Numbers
2005
Manejo de la hipertensión arterial en niños y adolescentes: recomendaciones de la Sociedad Europea de Hipertensión
2010
Resumen: La hipertensión en niños y adolescentes ha ido ganando terreno en la medicina cardiovascular, gracias a los avances producidos en distintas áreas de la investigación fisiopatológica y clínica. Estas guías nacen del consenso al que han llegado los especialistas en la detección y control de la hipertensión en niños y adolescentes. Por otra parte, dichas guías son un compendio de los datos científicos y la extensa experiencia clínica con la que se cuenta, y constituyen la información clínica más completa que los médicos, enfermeras y familiares deberían tener en cuenta a la hora de tomar decisiones. Estas guías, que hacen hincapié en la importancia de la hipertensión en niños y adoles…
Design and baseline characteristics of participants in the R esearching cardiovascular E vents with a W eekly IN cretin in D iabetes ( REWIND ) trial…
2017
The aim was to determine the effects of dulaglutide, a synthetic once-weekly, injectable human glucagon-like peptide 1 analogue that lowers blood glucose, body weight, appetite and blood pressure, on cardiovascular outcomes. People with type 2 diabetes, aged ≥50 years, with glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) ≤9.5%, and either a previous cardiovascular event, evidence of cardiovascular disease or ≥2 cardiovascular risk factors were randomly allocated to a weekly subcutaneous injection of either dulaglutide (1.5 mg) or placebo and followed within the ongoing Researching cardiovascular Events with a Weekly INcretin in Diabetes (REWIND) trial every 3 to 6 months. The primary cardiovascular outcome is…

Alteration of Heart Rate Variability as an Early Predictor of Cardiovascular Events: A Look at Current Evidence
2020
Evidence suggests an association between autonomic nervous system (ANS) function and atrial fibrillation (AF) development. We sought to examine the association of baseline resting heart rate (RHR) and short-term heart rate variability (HRV) as surrogates of (ANS) with incident AF in individuals without prior cardiovascular disease. A total of 6261 participants of the Multi Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA) who were free of AF and diagnosed cardiovascular disease were enrolled. Three standard 10-second, 12-lead electrocardiograms were used to measure RHR, the standard deviation of normal-to-normal intervals (SDNN) and the root mean square of successive differences in RR intervals (RMSSD…
Ungewöhnlicher Verlauf von otobasalen Frakturen mit Liquorrhoe*
1993
In the literature the persistence of cerebrospinal Liquorrhea after temporal bone fractures is a rare event. Between 1989 and 1992 four cases of temporal bone fractures with dural involvement were operated at the University ENT Department Mainz. These temporal bone fractures showed delayed or persistent symptoms of dural lacerations between three and sixty months after head injury. During operation we found larger bone-dura defects (1-1.5 cm in diameter) and brain herniations in all cases. Strohm stated that only in rare cases a temporal bone fracture produced a larger gap in the tegmen tympani or antri. Therefore, we assumed that in our cases such larger bone-dura defects were caused by a …
Energy spectral density as valid parameter to compare postural control between subjects with nonspecific chronic low back pain vs healthy subjects : …
2021
Abstract Background Nonspecific chronic low back pain (NSCLBP) is one of the most common and frequent health problems. Objetive to compare postural control (i.e. center of pressure (CoP) displacement and energy spectral density (ESD)) using technological devices (accelerometers and pressure platform) between subjects with NSCLBP and healthy subjects. Methods A cross-sectional case-control study was conducted. Observational study (STROBE). The final sample consisted of 60 subjects (30 NSCLBP subjects and 30 healthy subjects). Triaxial accelerometer and pressure platform were used in order to obtain ESD and CoP displacement measurements during four balance tasks (i.e. with and without vision …
Pulmonary Hypertension and Thromboembolic Disease
2008
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a disease group that includes a wide variety of entities leading to an increased pulmonary arterial pressure. This chapter describes the basic mechanisms that lead to PH and the possibilities of MRI in diagnosing different aspects. A MR imaging protocol is provided making MRI a comprehensive modality for the classification of the underlying disease and assessment of hemodynamics.
