Abstract P136: Ischemic Evaluation in Patients With Hypertensive Emergency / Urgency and Acute Systolic Heart Failure: Is Coronary Angiography Required for All? Session Title: Onsite Poster Competition I With Reception
Conclusions: Our results suggest that only a minority of patients with HU/E and S-HF have obstructive CAD. It may be possible to stratify patients using demographic and non-invasive tests to direct only those with high likelihood of O-CAD for coronary angiography. These results should be validated in large registry populations.

High Prevalence of Multiple Arterial Bed Lesions in Patients With Fibromuscular DysplasiaNovelty and Significance Fibromuscular Dysplasia
In conclusion, FMD is a systemic arterial disease. At least 2 vascular beds were affected by dysplastic stenoses in 48.0% of cases and by dysplastic stenoses, aneurysms, and dissections in 66.1% of cases. RA imaging should be proposed to hypertensive patients with a cerebrovascular presentation. Cervical artery imaging should be considered in patients with a renal presentation and bilateral RA lesions.Clinical Trial Registration—URL: www.Clinicaltrials.gov. Unique identifier: NCT02884141.

Invasively Measured Aortic Systolic Blood Pressure and Office Systolic Blood Pressure in Cardiovascular Risk AssessmentNovelty and Significance Aortic Blood Pressure and Cardiovascular Risk
In conclusion, invasively measured aortic systolic BP does not add prognostic information about cardiovascular outcomes and all-cause mortality compared with office BP in patients with stable angina pectoris, either with or without diabetes mellitus.

Pressure Changes Within the Sac of Human Cerebral Aneurysms in Response to Artificially Induced Transient Increases in Systemic Blood Pressure Brain
We examined the effects of controlled increases in blood pressure on different pressure parameters inside the sac of human cerebral aneurysms and corresponding parent arteries using invasive technology. Twelve patients (10 female, 2 male, age 54±15 years) with unruptured cerebral aneurysms undergoing endovascular coiling were recruited. Dual-sensor microwires with the capacity to simultaneously measure flow velocity and pressure were used to measure systolic, diastolic, and mean pressure inside the aneurysm sac and to measure both pressures and flow velocities in the feeder vessel just outside the aneurysm. These pr...

Association Between Ambulatory Systolic Blood Pressure During the Day and Asymptomatic Intracranial Arterial Stenosis Cerebrovascular Atherosclerosis
In conclusion, the present study showed a significant association between early morning SBP and asymptomatic ICAS in patients with hypertension after accounting for conventional cardiovascular risk factors. Our findings highlight the importance of morning SBP as a cardiovascular risk factor and should be validated in prospective studies.
