Independent of office blood pressure (BP) levels, home BP is associated with the occurrence of cardiovascular events. Abnormal diurnal variations in BP have been linked to cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, data on diurnal patterns of home BP, the morning and evening BP difference (MEdiff),...
The frequency of consecutive intraocular pressure readings exceeding a spread of 4 mm Hg was significantly increased in glaucomatous eyes. The range of intraocular pressure measurements was greater even in those glaucomatous eyes with mean intraocular pressures within the normal range. There was a ...
Physiological workload measures are a common approach in the context of adaptive automation. They involve recording biological measures, with examples including: optical imaging of cerebral blood flow (e.g., Le et al.,2018) and more general thermal imaging (e.g., Abdelrahman et al.,2017); bl...
Our analysis exploits self-reports of hypertension diagnosis as well as directly measured blood pressure readings. Using both measures, we find that the likelihood of developing hypertension is negatively related to changes in house prices. Also, decreasing house prices lower the probability of stopping...
