Abstract: The additive effect of hypertension on carotid atherosclerosis in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is well-established; however, the effect of the nondipping pattern has not yet been evaluated. In this study, we aim to… read more here.

Abstract: BackgroundUntreated Obstructive Sleep Apnea Hypnopnea Syndrome (OSAHS) is a known factor contributing to resistant hypertension (HT). Continuous Positive Airways Pressure (CPAP) is effective to decrease blood pressure (BP) in severe OSAHS. In our clinical practice,… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/ijms23052835
Abstract: Although half of hypertensive patients have hypertensive parents, known hypertension-related human loci identified by genome-wide analysis explain only 3% of hypertension heredity. Therefore, mainstream transcriptome profiling of hypertensive subjects addresses differentially expressed genes (DEGs) specific… read more here.
