Novel biomarkers in patients with uncontrolled hypertension with and without kidney damage
CONCLUSIONS: None of the biomarkers could differentiate our hypertension groups when established risk factors were considered. Plasma OPN may identify patients with uncontrolled hypertension at risk for kidney HMOD.PMID:38606688 | DOI:10.1080/08037051.2024.2323980 (Source: Blood Pressure)

One size does not fit all: universal cuff overestimates oscillometric blood pressure in persons with large arm circumference
CONCLUSION: Overestimation of BP measured with a universal cuff in persons with large arm circumferences is clinically important. It poses the risk of unnecessary initiation or intensification of antihypertensive medication in persons using the universal cuff.PMID:38591393 | DOI:10.1080/08037051.2024.2338208 (Source: Blood Pressure)

Frequency of office blood pressure measurements and the seasonal variability of blood pressure: results of the Hungarian Hypertension Registry
CONCLUSION: In conclusion, the low daily average number of blood pressure measurements indicates a limited blood pressure screening awareness/capacity in the case of Hungarian family physicians. In GP practices with more patients, blood pressure is usually less well-controlled. These results suggest that the further promotion of home blood pressure monitoring is necessary.PMID:38581160 | DOI:10.1080/08037051.2024.2337170 (Source: Blood Pressure)
