Blood pressure control in anticoagulated patients with hypertension and atrial fibrillation.
CONCLUSIONS: More than 75% of hypertensive patients with AF achieved BP goals, and this rate was higher in elderly. More than 2 thirds of patients were on combined therapy. BP control appears to be better in AF patients than in general hypertensive population. PMID: 28385080 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Sun exposure influences the prognostic power of components of mineral metabolism in patients with coronary artery disease
Conclusions In patients with stable CAD, low calcidiol and high FGF-23 plasma levels predict an adverse prognosis only when the sample is obtained during the months with LSE. SE should be taken into account in the clinical practice.

Supplement warning: Overdosing on this to lower high blood pressure could be deadly
SUPPLEMENTS popularly used include vitamin C, vitamin D3 and omega-3 - and potassium may also be taken to ward off high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, arthritis, cancer, digestive disorders, and infertility. However, too much of the mineral could be deadly.

Quality of life and patient satisfaction in patients with atrial fibrillation on stable vitamin K antagonist treatment or switched to a non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulant during a 1-year follow-up: A PREFER in AF Registry substudy.
CONCLUSIONS: At the beginning of NOAC prescriptions, European doctors tended to switch from VKAs to NOACs those patients at lower risk than "non-switchers". Complaints about bruising or bleeding, dissatisfaction with treatment, mobility problems and anxiety/depression traits appear to be related to - and may have influenced - the choice to switch from a VKA to a NOAC.

Effects of noise on vascular function, oxidative stress, and inflammation: mechanistic insight from studies in mice
ConclusionWe established a novel and unique aircraft noise stress model with increased blood pressure and vascular dysfunction associated with oxidative stress. This animal model enables future studies of molecular mechanisms, mitigation strategies, and pharmacological interventions to protect from noise-induced vascular damage.

Safety of once- or twice-daily dosing of non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation: A NOAC-TR study.
In this study, we investigated the adherence to once- or twice-daily dosing of NOACs and the risk of bleeding in nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) patients. This multicenter cross-sectional study, conducted between 1 September 2015 and 28 February 2016, included 2214 patients receiving NOACs for at least 3 months, due to NVAF. Patients receiving once-daily or twice-daily NOAC doses were 1:1 propensity score matched for baseline demographic characteristics and the presence of other diseases. The medication adherence was assessed by the 8-item Morisky Medication Adherence Scale. Risk factors were investigated in relatio...

Clinical profile and satisfaction with anticoagulated treatment in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation attended in Internal Medicine and Neurology departments of Spain.
CONCLUSIONS: Although there were some differences in the clinical profile of patients with atrial fibrillation attended in Neurology or Internal Medicine departments, all of them had many comorbidities and a high thromboembolic risk. Despite INR control was poor, the most common oral anticoagulant used were vitamin K antagonists. Satisfaction related to oral anticoagulation was high. PMID: 28990646 [PubMed - in process]

Vitamin D, Cardiovascular Disease and Risk Factors.
Authors: Skaaby T, Thuesen BH, Linneberg A Abstract Observational studies have suggested a possible protective role of vitamin D on the cardiovascular system. The available evidence does not support either cardiovascular benefits or harms of vitamin D supplementation. This chapter provides an overview and discussion of the current knowledge of vitamin D effects from a cardiovascular health perspective. It focuses on vitamin D in relation to cardiovascular disease, i.e. ischemic heart disease, and stroke; the traditional cardiovascular risk factors hypertension, abnormal blood lipids, obesity; and the emerging risk ...

An exaggerated blood pressure response to exercise is associated with the dietary sodium, potassium, and antioxidant vitamin intake in normotensive subjects.
CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that an exaggerated SBP response to exercise was associated with the dietary sodium, potassium, and antioxidant vitamin intake in normotensive subjects. PMID: 29553836 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
