Standalone sauna vs exercise followed by sauna on cardiovascular function in non‐naïve sauna users: A comparison of acute effects

2021

Background and aimsSauna bathing and aerobic exercise have each been shown to affect cardiovascular function. However, direct comparisons between standalone sauna bathing and a combination of exercise and sauna on vascular indices remain limited. Therefore, we conducted a cross-over study using matched durations to explore the hemodynamic changes of sauna exposure when compared to a combination of aerobic exercise and sauna exposure.MethodsParticipants (N = 72) with at least one cardiovascular risk factor underwent, on two separate occasions: (a) a 30-minute sauna at 75°C (SAUNA) and (b) the combination of a 15-minute cycling exercise at 75% maximum heart rate followed by 15-minute sauna ex…

The Effect of Tyramine, Noradrenaline, and Angiotensin on the Blood Pressure in Hypertensive Patients with Aldosteronism and Low Plasma Renin

1970

The reactivity to the pressor action of tyramine, noradrenaline, and angiotensin was determined in 9 patients with hypertension, aldosteronism and low plasma renin concentration (4 patients with solitary adrenal adenomas, 3 patients with nodular adrenal hyperplasia, 2 patients with unknown adrenal status). In 7 patients tests were repeated following unilateral or subtotal adrenalectomy respectively. For comparison, 5 patients with phaeochromocytoma, 10 patients with benign essential hypertension, and 12 normotensive control subjects were studied. — In the hypertensive patients with aldosteronism and low plasma renin, responsiveness to tyramine was significantly reduced. In contrast, pressor…

Hypermineralocorticoidism and hypertension

1971

Die mit Hypokaliamie, Uberproduktion von Mineralocorticoiden (Aldosteron und/oder Corticosteron und Desoxycorticosteron) und Aktivitatsanderungen des Renin-Angiotensinsystems einhergehenden Hochdrucksformen werden beschrieben. Sie lassen sich nach willkurlich gewahlten biochemischen Kriterien in drei Gruppen einteilen: a) Hypermineralocorticoidismus mit Reninsuppression und Aldosteronismus, b) Hypermineralocorticoidismus mit Reninund Aldosteronsuppression und c) Hypermineralocorticoidismus mit erhohtem Plasmarenin und Aldosteronismus. Jede dieser Gruppen besteht aus mehreren Syndromen, die sich durch ihr adrenocorticales Sekretionsmuster und/oder ihre morphologischen Nebennierenrindenverand…

Blood pressure measurement in children and adolescents : key element in the evaluation of arterial hypertension

2022

Arterial hypertension is the main modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular disease, occupying the first place among the causes of loss of life years adjusted for disability. In recent years, arterial hypertension in children and adolescents has gained ground in cardiovascular medicine thanks to progress made in several areas, fundamentally in pathophysiological and clinical research. Despite the advances that have been made in recent years, the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of high blood pressure in children and adolescents still have room for improvement. In this sense, the correct measurement of blood pressure is especially important, since it includes a series of essential element…

Pharmacological Interventions on Asymmetric Dimethylarginine, a Clinical Marker of Vascular Disease

2011

The aim of this paper is to review the latest data on the pharmacological modulation of asymmetric dimethylarginine in human disease. When the terminal nitrogens of the guanidine portion of an arginine become methylated through the action of N-methyl transferases, two chemically close, but physiologically different amino acids are synthesized: symmetric and asymmetric dimethylarginine. The vascular origin of asymmetric dimethylarginine and its inhibitory activity on endothelial nitric oxide synthase give it an important role in certain diseases in which microcirculation is compromised: hypertension, atherosclerosis, inflammatory bowel disease, and diabetes. This review discusses the role th…

May Measurement Month 2018: an analysis of blood pressure screening results from Spain.

2020

Este artículo se encuentra disponible en la siguiente URL: https://academic.oup.com/eurheartjsupp/article/22/Supplement_H/H119/5898732 En este artículo también participan: Fernando Martínez, Blanca Carreras, Bettina de Berardinis, Thomas Beaney, Anca Chis Ster, Neil R. Poulter, Xin Xia y Luis M. Ruilope. Elevated blood pressure (BP) is the single most important contributing risk factor to the global disease burden, leading to over 10 million deaths each year. In Spain, hypertension (HTN) affects around 20% of the adult population and remains the greatest attributable cause of cardiovascular mortality. May Measurement Month (MMM) is a worldwide initiative aimed at increasing awareness of HTN…

Intervenciones individuales para mejorar la adherencia al tratamiento farmacéutico, la dieta y la actividad física en adultos con hipertensión primar…

2020

Introduction Hypertension is a chronic disease with 31% worldwide prevalence in adults. It has been associated with non-adherence to therapeutic regime with a negative impact on the prognosis of the disease and healthcare-associated costs. So, it is necessary to identify effective interventions to improve adherence among the afflicted population. The objective of this protocol is to describe the methods for a systematic review that will evaluate the effect of individual interventions so as to improve adherence to the prescribed pharmacological treatment, as well as to prescribed diet and physical activity in adults with primary hypertension. Methods and analysis A systematic search of studi…

Risk factors, atrial fibrillation and thromboembolic events.

2008

AIM: The aim of this study was to evaluate the relation between risk factors for atrial fibrillation (AF) and thromboembolic complications. METHODS: We studied 480 patients (mean age: 71.2+/-11.6 years): 240 with paroxysmal AF, 240 with permanent AF. The association between AF and the presence of risk factors, cardiac and systemic disease was observed and the correlation with the occurrence of complications analyzed. RESULTS: Patients with AF had a high prevalence of the following conditions: hypertension, hypertensive heart disease (HHD), coronary artery disease, hyperthyroidism. Thromboembolism was observed in 26.6% of the patients. A correlation between the occurrence of a thromboembolic…
