The Hypertension Optimal Treatment Study is a prospective trial conducted in 26 countries. The aims are to (1) evaluate the relationship between three levels of target office diastolic blood pressure (BP) (< or = 80, < or = 85, or < or = 90 mm Hg) and cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in hypertensive patients and (2) examine the effects on cardiovascular morbidity and mortality of 75 mg aspirin daily versus placebo. A total of 19,193 patients between 50 and 80 years of age had been randomized by the end of April 1994. Treatment was initiated with felodipine 5 mg daily, and additional therapy was given in accordance with a set protocol. The present substudy of 926 patients performed in nine countries aimed to (1) compare home with office BP in a representative subsample of the HOT population after the titration of treatment was completed and (2) clarify whether the separation into the target groups could be expanded into the out-of-office setting. The differences between office and home measurements in diastolic BP of 0.2 mm Hg (SD, 9; 95% confidence interval, -0.36 to 0.81; P=.40) and systolic BP of 0.5 mm Hg (SD, 15; 95% confidence interval, -0.53 to 1.46; P=.21) were not significant. The group differences in home BP were 1.9 mm Hg (< or = 80 versus < or = 85) and 1.2 mm Hg (< or = 85 versus < or = 90) for diastolic BP (F=11.69; ANOVA, P<.0001) and 2.6 and 2.1 mm Hg for systolic BP (F=8.44, P=.0002). Thus, office and home BPs measured with the same semiautomatic device are comparable in treated hypertensive subjects in the HOT Study, and the separation into the target groups based on office readings prevails at home. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To identify entry characteristics associated with subsequent myocardial infarction in treated hypertensive patients. DESIGN: Nested case-control study and cohort study. SETTING AND PATIENTS: The 5730 participants (mean age 53 years; 61% male and 45% Caucasian) were selected from a worksite-based, union-sponsored, systematic hypertension control program from 1973 to 1992. METHODS: In the case-control study myocardial infarction cases were matched by age, sex, year of entry to the program, years of follow-up and previous treatment status (treated or untreated) with non-event subjects. Baseline clinical and biochemical characteristics were analyzed with regard to the outcome of myocardial infarction, using univariate and multivariate analyses, respectively, in case-control and cohort studies. RESULTS: During 5.43 years of follow-up the incidence of myocardial infarction was 6.75/1000 person-years. Univariate analysis indicated that myocardial infarction cases had higher cholesterol level and were more likely to have a previous history of diabetes than controls. The initial systolic blood pressure and pulse pressure of cases were significantly higher than in controls. Logistic regression models indicated that initial pulse pressure, either as a continuous or as a categorical variable, was the only measure of blood pressure independently associated with myocardial infarction after adjustment for other risk factors. Analysis of the experience of the total 5730 as well as 2445 previously untreated patients with a cohort study generated identical results. CONCLUSION: A large pulse pressure difference appears to be the most powerful measure available of initial blood pressure to identify, in advance, those hypertensive patients at greatest risk for a subsequent myocardial infarction. 相似文献

Studied the effects of verbal behavior by the patient and the health care provider on the subsequent control of hypertension in a sample of 217 Ss and 9 health care providers. It was hypothesized that both exposition of symptoms by the patient and explanation of illness and treatment by the provider would enhance subsequent control. Patient exposition was significantly correlated with a reduction in blood pressure from the initial to the subsequent home visit, but not with clinic or home interview pressures themselves. Provider explanation was significantly correlated with lower blood pressure at home interview, but not with a change in blood pressure between interviews. The hypothesis was partially confirmed, with implications for hypertension treatment. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved) 相似文献

Because the potential impact of habitual caffeine intake on blood pressure is a controversial issue, a study was carried out to explore the relationship between caffeine and various humoral factors that could account for a coffee-induced rise in blood pressure. Twenty-three hypertensive patients who refrained from caffeine for 2 to 3 weeks were given 250 mg oral caffeine powder dissolved in water. Blood pressure was recorded every 15 min by blood pressure monitor. Caffeine blood level, renin and endothelin were measured before and 1, 2, 3, and 6 h after caffeine intake. Urinary electrolytes and catecholamines were measured under caffeine influence (period I), and for the next 6 h (period II). A significant increase in systolic (P = .017) and diastolic blood pressure (P = .023) occurred in 13 subjects who were 58 +/- 10.4 years old. Nonresponders were younger (44.5 +/- 15.8 years). A statistically significant decrease in heart rate was seen during the first hour after caffeine intake in both responders (P = .008) and nonresponders (P = .004). Marked diuresis and natriuresis were observed during period I in both groups. Renin and endothelin levels were unchanged. Although chronic studies point to development of tolerance to long-term caffeine ingestion, acute studies like the one described are essential to obtain data on the immediate effects that can be of practical importance, especially in the elderly. 相似文献

Examined heart rate (HR) and blood pressure (BP) responses of 26 spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and 21 genetically-controlled Wistar/Kyoto (WKY) rats during aversive classical conditioning. Assessments were made of the effects of selective autonomic blockade by methyl atropine (10 mg/kg), phentolamine (2 mg/kg), and propranolol (2 mg/kg). The decelerative SHR HR CR was not secondary to baroreceptor reflex activity, although such activity was involved in the pressor BP and decelerative HR orienting response (OR) and UCR complex of the SHRs on initial applications of the CS and UCS. Augmented pressor BP ORs, CRs, and UCRs in the SHRs and differential drug effects on BP and HR baselines of the 2 strains suggested the presence of enhanced sympathetic activity in the SHRs that was not reflected in the SHR decelerative HR CR. Phentolamine unmasked evidence of reflex beta?-vasodilation deficiency in the SHRs that could have contributed to the enhancement of their BP OR and CR.

In this study we examined blood pressure and heart rate responses to intrathecal administration of a synthetic NK1-receptor agonist, H2N-(CH2)4-CO-Phe-Phe-Pro-NmeLeu-Met-NH2 (GR 73,632), in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and their progenitor strain, the Wistar-Kyoto rat (WKY). Sodium pentobarbitone anaesthetised rats with implanted intrathecal catheters were paralysed (pancuronium dibromide) and artificially ventilated. Injection of GR 73,632 at the T9 spinal level evoked dose-dependent increases in mean arterial pressure (MAP) in WKY and SHR. SHR had a lower MAP response threshold than WKY but increase in response with increasing dose was less in SHR than WKY. Biphasic blood pressure responses at high doses were observed in both strains. Prior administration of the NK1-receptor antagonist (3 aR,7aR)-7,7-diphenyl-2-[1-imino-2(methoxyphenyl)ethyl] perhydroisoindol-4-one (RP 67,580) significantly reduced the pressor response in WKY but not SHR. The depressor response was not attenuated in either strain. 相似文献

Plasma adrenaline, noradrenaline, blood pressure and heart rate were determined in 10 normotensive and 10 hypertensive patients undergoing ophthalmic surgery under electrostimulation anaesthesia. Venous blood samples for the determination of the catecholamines by a spectrofluorometric method were taken 30 min after premedication and 45 min after surgical incision. The catecholamine concentrations showed no significant differences neither by comparing the normotensive patients with the hypertensive patients nor by comparing the values during operation with them after premedication in each group. However, in the hypertensive patients blood pressure showed a higher increase during operation than in the normotensive patients. 相似文献

1. The depressor response to sodium nitroprusside (SNP) and the pressor response to Nomega-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) were investigated in anaesthetized and ganglion-blocked 6 week old (young) and 20 week old (adult) spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR), and the results were compared with those in age-matched normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats. 2. SNP produced a dose-dependent decrease of the mean blood pressure (BP) in both strains, and no differences in vascular sensitivity to SNP were observed between the strains. 3. L-NAME caused dose-dependent pressor responses in both strains. The sensitivity and the maximal response to L-NAME in SHR were significantly greater than those in age-matched WKY (P< 0.05 or 0.01; t-test, 13 d.f. in both ages). However, there were no significant differences in the responses between ages in each strain. 4. Acute reduction of BP induced by 7-O-ethylfangchinoline did not affect the responses to SNP and L-NAME in the adult SHR. 5. These results indicate that a greater amount of NO is tonically released in SHR and that its contribution to BP control is greater in SHR than in WKY, whereas vascular sensitivity to NO does not differ between the strains. In addition, acute changes in BP do not affect the degree of dependency on NO for BP control. 相似文献

The experiment was performed on 86 cases under intraperitoneal pentobarbital anesthesia. One balloon was placed in the extradural space of right frontal region, and the other balloon was placed in the left extradural space and the intracranial pressure was measured. A needle was stereotaxically inserted into the subcortical area in order to measure the cerebral blood flow. Systemic blood pressure was recorded by inserting a catheter into the femoral artery, and electrocorticogram was also recorded. An expanding intracranial lesion was made by inflating the extradural balloon with physiological saline. The animals were arbitrarily divided into two groups.: 1) light or moderate groups which intracranial pressure before the injection of drug was below 400 mmH2O. 2) severe groups above 400 mmH2O. After the maintenance of the pressure, Solcoseryl was infused intravenously. The investigation was focused to observe whether Solcoseryl reveales any potent effect on cerebral blood flow, intracranial pressure, systemic blood pressure and on electroencephalogram in acute intracranial hypertension. Results 1) Intravenous injection of Solcoseryl had the effect of lowering intracranial pressure in the light or moderate and severe groups. Particularly, dose of 80 mg/kg showed the marked effect, though with a rebound phenomenon in the light or moderate groups. Furthermore, the effect was more marked and lasting by drip infusion of Solcoseryl and also by intravenous injection of Solcoseryl after pretreatment with hydrocortisone, and at this time no rebound phenomenon was recognized. 2) Solcoseryl had the effect of increasing the cerebral blood flow accompained with the lowering of intracranial pressure. 3) Systemic blood pressure was transiently lowered by the injection of Solcoseryl 20 mg/kg or 80 mg/kg and recovered immediately. 4) Solcoseryl had no effect on electroencephalogram in the severe groups. Conclusion On the basis of these results, it is rational to conclude that Solcoseryl could be superior agent render to lower intracranial pressure and to improve cerebral blood flow in acute intracranial hypertension. 相似文献

Bacterial adherence on to several materials with a potential application in reconstructive surgery was studied. Polymer (poly(L-lactide)), composite (hydroxyapatite/poly(L-lactide)) and metal (316L stainless steel) were evaluated both as smooth and sandblasted specimens. All materials were incubated in phosphate-buffered saline, challenged with Staphylococcus aureus or S. epidermidis and evaluated for up to 24 h. S. aureus showed a preference for the metal and composite tested over the polymer used. For S. epidermidis no preference was found for one of the investigated materials. The influence of surface roughness on bacterial growth was demonstrated by increased colonization on the sandblasted specimens. 相似文献

1 The effect of pindolol administered to twenty-six patients with hypertension of unknown origin was compared with respect to blood pressure and plasma renin activity change after increase of the dose over a period of 6 weeks. 2 There was no clear correlation between the fall of plasma renin activity, which in some patients was very marked, and the fall in blood pressure. Some patients with a fall in plasma renin activity did not drop their pressure. Conversely, some with a fall of pressure did not drop their plasma renin activity. 3 The addition of hydrochlorothiazide to the pindolol finally caused further lowering of the blood pressure in all but one patient and the plasma renin activity rose in all but two patinets. There was no clear correlation between change in plasma renin activity and the effect on blood pressure. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To provide Canadian physicians with comprehensive, evidence-based guidelines for the nonpharmacologic management and prevention of gestational hypertension and pre-existing hypertension during pregnancy. OPTIONS: Lifestyle modifications, dietary or nutrient interventions, plasma volume expansion and use of prostaglandin precursors or inhibitors. OUTCOMES: In gestational hypertension, prevention of complications and death related to either its occurrence (primary or secondary prevention) or its severity (tertiary prevention). In pre-existing hypertension, prevention of superimposed gestational hypertension and intrauterine growth retardation. EVIDENCE: Articles retrieved from the pregnancy and childbirth module of the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews; pertinent articles published from 1966 to 1996, retrieved through a MEDLINE search; and review of original randomized trials from 1942 to 1996. If evidence was unavailable, consensus was reached by the members of the consensus panel set up by the Canadian Hypertension Society. VALUES: High priority was given to prevention of adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes in pregnancies with established hypertension and in those at high risk of gestational hypertension through the provision of effective nonpharmacologic management. BENEFITS, HARMS AND COSTS: Reduction in rate of long-term hospital admissions among women with gestational hypertension, with establishment of safe home-care blood pressure monitoring and appropriate rest. Targeting prophylactic interventions in selected high-risk groups may avoid ineffective use in the general population. Cost was not considered. RECOMMENDATION: Nonpharmacologic management should be considered for pregnant women with a systolic blood pressure of 140-150 mm Hg or a diastolic pressure of 90-99 mm Hg, or both, measured in a clinical setting. A short-term hospital stay may be required for diagnosis and for ruling out severe gestational hypertension (preeclampsia). In the latter case, the only effective treatment is delivery. Palliative management, dependent on blood pressure, gestational age and presence of associated maternal and fetal risk factors, includes close supervision, limitation of activities and some bed rest. A normal diet without salt restriction is advised. Promising preventive interventions that may reduce the incidence of gestational hypertension, especially with proteinuria, include calcium supplementation (2 g/d), fish oil supplementation and low-dose acetylsalicylic acid therapy, particularly in women at high risk for early-onset gestational hypertension. Pre-existing hypertension should be managed the same way as before pregnancy. However, additional concerns are the effects on fetal well-being and the worsening of hypertension during the second half of pregnancy. There is, as yet, no treatment that will prevent exacerbation of the condition. VALIDATION: The guidelines share the principles in consensus reports from the US and Australia on the nonpharmacologic management of hypertension in pregnancy. 相似文献

The influence of hypervolemia on hemodynamics and interdialytic blood pressure, as well as in relation to vascular compliance, was investigated in 10 hemodialysis patients who were not receiving vasoactive medication. All subjects were studied during a relative normovolemic interdialytic period (from 1 kg below dry weight postdialytic until dry weight predialytic) and a hypervolemic interdialytic period (from 1 kg above dry weight postdialytic until 3 kg above dry weight predialytic). Interdialytic blood pressure was measured with an ambulatory blood pressure monitor. Cardiac output was echographically measured and total peripheral resistance calculated postdialytic, mid-interdialytic, and predialytic. At the same time, a blood sample was drawn for analyzing vasoactive hormones, sodium, and hematocrit. In all patients, ideal dry weight was estimated by echography of the caval vein. Arterial and venous compliance were measured with an ultrasound vessel wall movement detector system and a strain-gauge plethysmograph. After fluid load, an increase in intravascular volume, an increase in caval vein diameter and cardiac output, and a decrease in peripheral resistance was observed. No significant influence of a 3-L fluid load was found on interdialytic blood pressure course (153+/-24 mm Hg/90+/-19 mm Hg in the hypervolemic period and 146+/-27 mm Hg/89+/-22 mm Hg in the normovolemic period). Sodium and osmolality were similar in the hypervolemic and normovolemic interdialytic periods. After fluid load, a decrease in arginine vasopressin and angiotensin II was observed, which probably contributed to the decreased systemic vascular resistance. Catecholamines were not influenced by fluid load, but increased during the interdialytic period, suggesting accumulation after dialysis. Three of the 10 patients had higher systolic but not diastolic blood pressures after fluid load (159+/-13 mm Hg/81+/-22 mm Hg in the hypervolemic period and 135+/-16 mm Hg/81+/-22 mm Hg in the normovolemic period). No correlation could be found between arterial or venous compliance and blood pressure changes. We concluded that a 3-L interdialytic fluid load does not result in higher blood pressure in most hemodialysis patients. 相似文献

In areas where hepatitis B virus (HBV) is prevalent, HBV carriers negative for hepatitis B surface antigen (HbsAg) by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) have been reported. Moreover, even after screening donor blood for HbsAg and hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb), post-transfusion hepatitis B continues to occur, though with a decreasing frequency. Therefore, screening tests far more sensitive for detecting HBsAg than those currently available are needed. We developed a highly sensitive method for HBsAg detection. It is based on the recognition of peroxidase activity through measuring the formation of stable nitroxide radical with electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy in the presence of hydrogen peroxide, p-acetamidophenol (p-AP), and 4-hydrazonomethyl-1-hydroxy-2,2,5,5,-tetramethyl-3-imidazoline-3-o xide (HHTIO). A cut-off value was established by testing of 186 healthy adults and 50 HBsAg-positive individuals. The signal to noise (S/N) ratio of less than 1.488 obtained by ESR spectroscopy was considered to be negative and more than 2.181, positive. The p-AP/HHTIO method was found to be 10 times more sensitive than the standard ELISA and reproducibility was excellent. Additional investigations were made on the HBsAg levels in the serum from 26 healthy subjects, in whom cut-off index levels on ELISA were negative but relatively high (range: 0.6 to 1.0); and on 15 patients with non B non C hepatitis. Three of 26 cases and 3 of 15 with non B non C hepatitis were judged to be HBsAg positive. Of these, 5 were found to be positive for HBV DNA by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). It was shown in this study that the p-AP/HHTIO method is practical and useful in screening HBV carriers because of the sensitivity in HBsAg detection, which is comparable to PCR analysis. 相似文献

In this study, the authors examined fear related to severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) among 2 samples of hospital staff in Hong Kong. Sample 1 included health care workers (n = 82) and was assessed during the peak of the SARS epidemic. Sample 2 included hospital staff who recovered from SARS (n = 97). The results show that participants in both samples had equal, if not more, concern about infecting others (especially family members) than being self-infected. Sample 1 participants had stronger fear related to infection than Sample 2 participants, who seemed to be concerned more about other health problems and discrimination. Participants with lower self-efficacy tended to have higher fear related to SARS. Fear related to SARS was also correlated positively with posttraumatic stress symptoms among respondents of Sample 2 (recovered staff). Interventions based on these findings are described.

In 13 postoperative patients (1st to 9th day) of both sexes, aged 32 to 74, we studied whether an additional volume of 500 ml Haemaccel might demonstrate-as in earlier test series--a correlation between CVP measured in the horizontal position and changes of CVP and Pa measured at atrial level in a partly upright position (tilting angle 45 degrees and 60 degrees of the revolving bed). After volume administration (average: 8.13 ml/kg body weight) and raising of CVP in the horizontal by 3.42 cm H2O corresponding to an E'-value of 0.42 cm H2O/ml/kg body weight, we noticed a significant reduction of the decrease due to orthostasis as well of Pa at heart level as of the "shock index"; at the same time, however, the extent of the CVP decrease registered for all patients increased significantly regardless of tilting angle. Therefore, a correlation between the intravasal filling state and the reaction of orthostatic CVP and Pa may be assumed. In conclusion, the explanation for these results and the relation between the venous filling volume and some pathophysiological functions at the right heart are discussed. 相似文献
