Is Hypertension Diagnostic Testing and Diagnosis Associated with Psychological Distress?
CONCLUSIONS: The hypertension diagnostic process did not lead to short-term or intermediate-term changes in self-reported HRQOL. However, BP-related worry increased short-term and persisted at 6 months among individuals with a new hypertension diagnosis. Results warrant validation in more representative populations and additional exploration of the impacts of this worry on psychological well-being and hypertension control.PMID:37688515 | DOI:10.1093/ajh/hpad083

Genes That Extend Lifespan May Do So by Mitigating the Increased Risk of Death Posed by Having Hypertension
Am J Hypertens. 2023 Aug 10:hpad070. doi: 10.1093/ajh/hpad070. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTGenetic factors influence lifespan. In humans, there appears to be a particularly strong genetic effect in those aged ≥ 90 years. An important contribution is nutrient sensing genes which confer cell resilience. Our research has been investigating the genetic factors by longitudinal studies of American men of Japanese descent living on the island of Oahu in Hawaii. This cohort began as the Honolulu Heart Program in the mid-1960s and most subjects are now deceased. We previously discovered various genes containing polymorphisms as...

Sex differences in atrial fibrillation and associated complications in hypertensive patients with left ventricular hypertrophy: The LIFE study
CONCLUSIONS: Among patients with hypertension and LVH, females with new-onset atrial fibrillation had a higher risk of stroke than males, especially in patients above 64 years. However, the risk did not differ between the sexes among patients with a history of atrial fibrillation.PMID:37382177 | DOI:10.1093/ajh/hpad057

Estimated population health benefits of intensive systolic blood pressure treatment among SPRINT-eligible US adults
CONCLUSIONS: Most of the population health benefit from intensive SBP goals could be achieved by treating those characterized by a previously published algorithm as having medium or high predicted benefit.PMID:37378472 | DOI:10.1093/ajh/hpad047

Targeting Hypertensive Response To Exercise And The Association Of Masked Hypertension With Subclinical Organ Damage : A Mini-Review And Meta-Analysis
CONCLUSIONS: On the basis of this, albeit limited, evidence, the diagnostic work-up in individuals with HRE should primarily be addressed to look for MH as well as for markers of HMOD, a highly prevalent alteration in MH.PMID:37195645 | DOI:10.1093/ajh/hpad049
