Relationship between daily exposure to biomass fuel smoke and blood pressure in high-altitude Peru
(Wolters Kluwer Health, 2015)
Household air pollution from biomass fuel use affects 3 billion people worldwide; however, few studies have examined the relationship between biomass fuel use and blood pressure. We sought to determine if daily biomass ...
Central Blood Pressure Waves Assessment: A Validation Study of Non-invasive Aortic Pressure Measurement in Human Beings
(Springer, 2020-04)
Introduction: Measurement of central (aortic) systolic blood pressure has been shown to provide reliable information to evaluate target organ damage. However, non-invasive central blood pressure measurement procedures are ...
Mechanisms involved in the relationship between low calcium intake and high blood pressure
(Molecular Diversity Preservation International, 2019-05)
There is increasing epidemiologic and animal evidence that a low calcium diet increases blood pressure. The aim of this review is to compile the information on the link between low calcium intake and blood pressure. Calcium ...
Associations of Urban Environment Features with Hypertension and Blood Pressure across 230 Latin American Cities
(National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, 2022)
BACKGROUND: Features of the urban physical environment may be linked to the development of high blood pressure, a leading risk factor for global burden of disease. OBJECTIVES: We examined associations of urban physical ...
Parental body mass index and blood pressure are associated with higher body mass index and blood pressure in their adult offspring: a cross-sectional study in a resource-limited setting in northern Peru
(Wiley, 2018)
OBJECTIVES: High body mass index (BMI) and blood pressure (BP) are major contributors to the high burden of non-communicable diseases in adulthood. Individual high-risk and population approaches for prevention require newer ...
Association between central-peripheral blood pressure amplification and structural and functional cardiac properties in children, adolescents, and adults: impact of the amplification parameter, recording system and calibration scheme
(Springer, 2021-02)
Introduction: Systolic blood pressure (SBPA) and pulse pressure amplification (PPA) were quantified using different methodological and calibration approaches to analyze (1) the association and agreement between different ...
Launching a salt substitute to reduce blood pressure at the population level: A cluster randomized stepped wedge trial in Peru
(BioMed Central, 2014)
Background: Controlling hypertension rates and maintaining normal blood pressure, particularly in resource-constrained settings, represent ongoing challenges of effective and affordable implementation in health care. One ...
Global REACH 2018: Andean highlanders, chronic mountain sickness and the integrative regulation of resting blood pressure
(Wiley, 2020)
NEW FINDINGS: What is the central question of this study? Does chronic mountain sickness (CMS) alter sympathetic neural control and arterial baroreflex regulation of blood pressure in Andean (Quechua) highlanders? What ...
INCIDENCE OF HYPERTENSION IN SCHOOLCHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS: RELATIONSHIP WITH PHYSICAL ACTIVITY, CARDIORESPIRATORY FITNESS AND OBESITY
(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2015)
Blood pressure response to six-minute walk test in hypertensive subjects exposed to high altitude: effects of antihypertensive combination treatment
(Elsevier, 2016)
Background: Limited evidence exists on blood pressure (BP) responses to exercise in hypertensive subjects exposed to high altitude, and on the effects of antihypertensive treatment in this setting. We aimed to asses BP ...
