prehypertension/albumin

OBJECTIVE This study was operated to investigate the association between urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) and physical situations as hypertension and prehypertension among women. METHODS Blood pressure, height, weight and waist circumference were measured and factors such as cigarette

The study was designed to evaluate the urinary excretion of C-peptide and albumin, and urinary N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase (NAG) activity in juvenile borderline hypertensives. The second aim was to examine the relationship between these variables and ambulatory blood pressure level and

The transcapillary escape rate of albumin (TERalb) is often elevated in patients with diabetic microangiopathy. The objective of this study was to examine the effect of enalapril on the TERalb of diabetic patients with albuminuria and normal or mildly elevated blood pressure. Seventeen diabetic

BACKGROUND This study was operated to investigate the association between urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR) and prehypertension among Chinese Han women. METHODS Information on blood pressure measurement and other variables were obtained, and blood and urine samples collected in 1796 women

We investigated exercise induced urinary albumin excretion rate (UAE)(ex-UAE) in patients with borderline hypertension (BH) compared to normotensives with positive-PFH and negative-NFH family history of hypertension. The study population consisted of 20 young, non-obese males with BH defined

BACKGROUND The elevated blood pressure is one of the most important risk factors of diabetic micro- and macroangiopathy. OBJECTIVE Evaluation of the prevalence of prehypertension and relationship between prehypertension, metabolic control and chronic complications in children and adolescents with

To study how the risk of cardiovascular disease changes with increasing levels of urinary albumin excretion (UAE), we prospectively studied a random sample of 120 49-year-old men with a wide range of blood pressures. Based on diastolic blood pressure (DBP), the subjects were divided into

Microalbuminuria, for which hypertension and diabetes are well-known risk factors, has recently been used to detect individuals at risk for cardiovascular and chronic kidney diseases in the general population. We aimed to determine the thresholds of blood pressure or blood glucose concentration at

OBJECTIVE To study why in type II diabetes, microalbuminuria, a marker of generalized vascular dysfunction, and hypertension have been linked with both renal and cardiovascular organ damage. METHODS To investigate the effect of moderately elevated blood pressure on vascular damage, the

The purpose of this study was the evaluation of a predictive genetic marker for nephropathy and hypertension in patients with type-I-diabetes mellitus (IDDM). The study was performed on 247 pediatric patients with IDDM. The mean age was 15.5 years (range 3.1-29.3), the mean duration of diabetes was

Inflammation is a pathogenic factor for target-organ damage (TOD) in hypertension. This study examined the relationship between inflammatory parameters and urinary albumin excretion (UAE) in prehypertension. A total of 65 prehypertensive subjects (blood pressure (BP) 120-139/80-89 mm Hg) and 26

UNASSIGNED Present study was to evaluate whether increased arterial stiffness was associated with target organ damage in pre-hypertensive subjects. UNASSIGNED Pre-hypertensive subjects enrolled and echocardiography was used to evaluate left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) and the first morning urine

The number of centenarians is projected to rise rapidly. However, knowledge of evidence-based health care in this group is still poor. Hypertension is the most common condition that leads to multiple organ complications, disability, and premature death. No guidelines for the management of high blood

BACKGROUND Whether hyperuricemia and microalbuminuria are separately associated with prehypertension among Chinese Han women is controversial. METHODS Information was collected from physical examinations, personal interviews, and blood and urine samples. Associations of hyperuricemia and

High normal blood pressure (HNBP) is associated with an increased risk of incident high blood pressure (HBP) and of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). To estimate the prevalence of HNBP and related cardiovascular risk factors, a representative sample of 1970 Romanian adults was enrolled in SEPHAR III
