Microalbuminuria and diabetic renal disease are closely linked [1–14] and are associated with increasing blood pressure and often antecedent hyperfiltration [1]. Microalbuminuria usually indicates the beginning of diabetic nephropathy as opposed to over
Risk factors for cardiovascular disease, including elevated blood pressure, are known to increase risk of Alzheimer’s disease. There has been increasing awareness of the relationship between long-term blood pressure (BP) patterns and their effects on the brain. We aimed to investigate the associatio...
It’s natural to experience some changes in yourblood pressure, especially with each passing year. As you age, blood pressure typically rises in response to changes in the health and function of your arteries. But, blood pressure also changes from hour to hour, following a predictable, ...
Of the 350 signals recorded (see Fig. 3 consort flow diagram), 133 were not eligible due to non ISO conformity (17) or technical issues (116) such as image instability related to excessive finger movement or pressure.Figure 3CONSORT Flow Chart of signals used for validation. 1SAP...

The published figure for the median systolic blood pressure of middle-aged men is 128. To determine if there has been any change in this value, a random sample of 100 men have been selected. Test the hypothesis that the median is equal to 128 if (a) 60 men have readings above 128 (...

Blood pressure variability (BPV) is associated with higher cardiovascular morbidity risks; however, its association with cognitive decline remains unclear. We investigated whether higher BPV is associated with faster declines in cognitive function in isc
