Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 1 gene ( < em > FLT1 < /em > ) longevity variant increases lifespan by reducing mortality risk posed by hypertension
In conclusion, the longevity-associated genotype of FLT1 may confer increased lifespan by protecting against mortality risk posed by hypertension. We suggest that FLT1 expression in individuals with longevity genotype boosts vascular endothelial resilience mechanisms to counteract hypertension-related stress in vital organs and tissues.PMID:37178326 | DOI:10.18632/aging.204722

Dietary intake habits and the prevalence of nocturia in Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus
ConclusionsWe found an inverse association between vegetable intake habit and nocturia in Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. No data regarding the association between dietary intake and nocturia is available among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. This study is the first to show a significant inverse association between dietary vegetable intake and nocturia and severe nocturia among Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Medtronic readies pivotal trial in renal denervation
Medtronic (NYSE:MDT) said today that it’s ready for a run at FDA approval for renal denervation in treating high blood pressure, more than three years after the failure of a high-profile clinical trial. Back in January 2014, Fridley, Minn.-based Medtronic shocked medtech when it announced that the highly anticipated Symplicity HTN-3 trial, examining ablation of the around the renal arteries in treating hypertension, failed to meet its efficacy endpoint. The company suspended enrollment in its other Symplicity trials around the world and later took a $200 million write-down on its renal denervation assets. News of th...

Association between Exposure to p,p ′-DDT and Its Metabolite p,p′-DDE with Obesity: Integrated Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Conclusions: We classified p,p′-DDT and p,p′-DDE as “presumed” to be obesogenic for humans, based on a moderate level of primary human evidence, a moderate level of primary in vivo evidence, and a moderate level of supporting evidence from in vivo and in vitro studies. https://doi.org/10.1289/EHP527 Received: 17 May 2016 Revised: 04 May 2017 Accepted: 09 May 2017 Published: 18 September 2017 Please address correspondence to M.A. La Merrill, Dept. of Environmental Toxicology, University of California, Davis, 1 Shields Ave., 4245 Meyer Hall, Davis, CA 95616-5270 USA.

Abstract P146: Uric Acid is an Independent Risk Factor for Developing Hypertension From Prehypertension: A 5-year Japanese Cohort Study Session Title: Onsite Poster Competition I With Reception
This study is conducted to clarify the risks.Methods: We conducted a retrospective 5-year cohort study using the data from 3,584 prehypertensive Japanese adults (52.1±11.0 years, 2,081 men) in 2004 and reevaluated it 5 years later. We calculated the cumulative incidences of hypertension over 5 years, then, we detected the risk factors and calculated odds ratios (ORs) for developing hypertension by crude analysis and after adjustments for age, sex, body mass index, smoking and drinking habits, baseline systolic and diastolic blood pressure, pulse rate, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, chronic kidney disease, and serum uric...

Uric Acid Is a Strong Risk Marker for Developing Hypertension From PrehypertensionNovelty and Significance Hyperuricemia and Prehypertension
Prehypertension frequently progresses to hypertension, a condition associated with high morbidity and mortality from cardiovascular diseases and stroke. However, the risk factors for developing hypertension from prehypertension remain poorly understood. We conducted a retrospective cohort study using the data from 3584 prehypertensive Japanese adults (52.1±11.0 years, 2081 men) found to be prehypertensive in 2004 and reexamined in 2009. We calculated the cumulative incidences of hypertension over 5 years, examined risk factors, and calculated odds ratios (ORs) for developing hypertension after adjustments for age, sex, bo...

Day-by-Day Variability of Home Blood Pressure and Incident Cardiovascular Disease in Clinical PracticeNovelty and Significance Blood Pressure Variability
We assessed the relationship between day-by-day home blood pressure (BP) variability and incident cardiovascular disease (CVD) in clinical practice. J-HOP study (Japan Morning Surge-Home Blood Pressure) participants underwent home BP monitoring in the morning and evening for a 14-day period, and their BP levels and BP variability independent of the mean (VIM) were assessed. Incident CVD events included coronary heart disease and stroke. Cox models were fitted to assess the home BP variability–CVD risk association. Among 4231 participants (mean±SD age, 64.9±10.9 years; 53.3% women; 79.1% taking antihypertensive medicati...

Carotid atherosclerosis and the association between nocturnal blood pressure dipping and cardiovascular events
The impact of a nondipping blood pressure (BP) pattern, defined as (awake systolic BP – sleep systolic BP)/awake systolic BP < 0.1, on cardiovascular events in populations with different degrees of carotid atherosclerosis is uncertain. The authors hypothesized that a nondipping BP pattern would show differential predictive power for cardiovascular events, including total cardiovascular death, sudden death, nonfatal cardiovascular events, and nonfatal stroke, between populations with and without carotid atherosclerosis. To test this hypothesis, the authors analyzed 493 patients (mean age 67.9 years, 47.5% men) from ...

Vegetable Protein Intake was Inversely Associated with Cardiovascular Mortality in A 15-Year Follow-Up Study of A General Japanese Population.
CONCLUSIONS: Vegetable protein intake may prevent future CVD, particularly in nonhypertensive subjects in the Japanese population. However, further studies are necessary to examine the biological mechanisms of this effect. PMID: 30089755 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
