Incorporating pregnancy-related factors, especially hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, significantly improves the prediction of 10-year incident hypertension risk in women after their first childbirth, potentially guiding targeted cardiov
This study reveals that angiotensin II via TGF-β1 upregulates platelet PAR4, promoting hyperactivation and thrombosis in hypertension, with valsartan attenuating this pathway and thrombotic risk.
Recent research identifies intestinal serotonin 5-HT3a receptor signaling via vagal neurons as a key mediator of microbiota-induced hypertension, offering new insights into resistant hypertension and potential therapeutic targets.
Study found that use of an AI-driven gamified mobile app integrating home blood pressure monitoring significantly improved blood pressure control compared to usual care in hypertensive patients.
A Louisiana statewide perinatal quality collaborative significantly reduced severe maternal morbidity related to hemorrhage and hypertension, sustained improvements across initiatives, and narrowed racial disparities, demonstrating durable
Long-term intensive BP control led by trained nonphysician community providers significantly lowers cardiovascular risk over 7 years, with benefits persisting 3 years post-intervention in rural China.
This cluster-randomized trial in rural China demonstrates that a coordinated community- and family-based intervention effectively lowers systolic blood pressure at the population level, highlighting the importance of sustained community eng
This review synthesizes evidence on physician-focused financial incentives for hypertension control, highlighting nuanced impacts on clinical decisions, documented blood pressure control, and cardiovascular outcomes, with a focus on both ov
Highlight This unprecedented large-scale multinational study developed a semisupervised contrastive machine learning framework that generates a global
This review synthesizes current evidence on the impact of hypoglossal nerve stimulation (HGNS) on cardiovascular disease incidence in obstructive sleep apnea patients, highlighting potential long-term cardiovascular benefits and mechanistic
This analysis of the China Rural Hypertension Control Project reveals that intensive blood pressure management chiefly drives cardiovascular risk reduction, with modest contributions from behavioral and metabolic changes, highlighting domai
In hypertensive high-risk patients undergoing major abdominal surgery, targeting an intraoperative mean arterial pressure ≥80 mmHg reduces postoperative organ dysfunction and acute kidney injury compared to the standard target of ≥65 mmHg.
This case series reveals a high prevalence of uncontrolled hypertension among diabetic patients visiting ophthalmology clinics and highlights the importance of in-clinic blood pressure screening to identify and manage cardiovascular risk.
This study evaluates comprehensive nurse-led telehealth for uncontrolled type 2 diabetes and hypertension in a fee-for-service setting, finding limited improvement in HbA1c but identifying key barriers to implementation.
This prospective cohort study investigates how fructose-containing beverages and foods, including sugar-sweetened beverages, fruit juices, and whole fruits, consumed from childhood through adulthood influence hypertension risk, highlighting
Researchers found that Galectin-3 boosts CaV1.2 calcium channel activity in blood vessel muscle, increasing contraction and blood pressure. Blocking this interaction lowered blood pressure in animal models, suggesting a new target for hyper
An exploratory ARCADIA analysis suggests that patients with cryptogenic stroke and atrial cardiopathy without severe hypertension-related features may derive greater benefit from apixaban than aspirin, whereas those with high-risk hypertens
A large U.S. study found that even PM2.5 levels below current federal standards were linked to higher hypertension hospitalization risk in older adults, especially among women and some regional and socioeconomic groups.
Among more than 26 million older U.S. adults, even PM2.5 levels below current standards were linked to higher hypertension hospitalization risk, suggesting no clearly safe low-exposure threshold.
An observational study in a Massachusetts FQHC network found that a telehealth navigator program with remote monitoring was associated with a substantial improvement in blood pressure control among Black adults with hypertension.
