Cost-utility analysis of diagnostic methods for arterial hypertension in primary care for Brazil: ABPM vs. OBPM vs. HBPM. Blood Press. Monit. (IF 1.2) Pub Date : 2023-06-22 Rosana Lima Garcia, Marcus Tolentino Silva, Amaury Zatorre Amaral, Giovanio Vieira Silva
Arterial hypertension (AH) is diagnosed using three methods: office blood pressure measurement (OBPM), home blood pressure monitoring (HBPM), and ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM). No economic studies have evaluated the impact of incorporating these strategies for AH diagnosis into the Brazilian public health system.

Glyceryl trinitrate-induced blood pressure variability decrease during head-up tilt test predicts vasovagal response. Blood Press. Monit. (IF 1.2) Pub Date : 2023-06-19 Bernard Meglič, Aljoša Danieli
Glyceryl trinitrate (GTN) provoked cardioinhibitory syncope during the head-up tilt test is preceded by a period of disrupted blood pressure variability (BPV). Endogenous nitric oxide (NO) attenuates BPV independently of blood pressure (BP). We hypothesized that exogenous NO donor GTN might decrease BPV during the presyncope period. A decrease in BPV may predict the tilt outcome.

Comparison of blood pressure measurements on the bare and sleeved arms - what does it uncover? Blood Press. Monit. (IF 1.2) Pub Date : 2023-06-19 Rotem Tal-Ben Ishay, Adi Leiba, Vladimir Rappoprt, Avital Angel-Korman, Zeev Katzir
Accurate office blood pressure (BP) measurement remains crucial in diagnosing and managing hypertension. In this study, we aimed to compare BP measurements done over a bare arm versus a sleeved arm, while controlling all other possible sources of variance. We collected BP measurements of 100 hypertensive patients visiting a nephrology and hypertension clinic between January 2019 and December 2023.

The evidence of effectiveness of isometric resistance training on the management of hypertension in adults: an umbrella review. Blood Press. Monit. (IF 1.2) Pub Date : 2023-06-13 Abbey Wehrmann, Esther J Tian, Elizabeth Liz Tyack, Saravana Kumar
Hypertension is the leading risk factor for cardiovascular disease yet also one of the most readily preventable causes of death. Isometric resistance training (IRT) has gained increasing popularity in recent times as a viable nonpharmacological management option for hypertension. Whilst there have been several reviews on this topic, with varying findings, this umbrella review aimed to summarize the
