C1 and C2 were normal in group A, only C2 normal in group B, only C1 normal in group C, neither was normal in group D). Arterial blood pressure (BP) before operation and 8 min after induction were monitored and recorded. Results: Patients with dysfunction of arterial elasticity presented higher MAP during preoperation and significant BP changes after induction. Conclusion: Hypertension plays a key role in arterial elasticity.Arterial Blood Pressure of the senile patients with decreased arterial elasticity changes significantly after general anesthesia induction.
Objective To investigate the antihypertensive effects of continuous airway positive pressure( CPAP) plus antihypertensive drugs on patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome ( OSAHS) and hypertension.Methods 82 OSAHS patients with hypertension were enrolled in this study. They were randomly divided into a CPAP treatment group( 44 patients, treated with antihypertensive drugs and CPAP) , and a control group( 38 patients, treated with antihypertensive drugs only) . All the patients were performed polysomnography and 24-hour blood pressure monitoring before and 12 weeks after the treatment. Results After 12 weeks treatment, except the systolic pressure in night time( nSBP) , all the parameters of 24-hour blood monitoring improved better in the CPAP group than in the control group( all P lt; 0. 05) . The blood pressure dropped to normal in 75. 0% ( 33/44) CPAP patients and in 52. 6% ( 20 /38) control patients. In the CPAP group, 8( 18. 2% ) cases were withdrawn from antihypertensive drugs, 13( 29. 5% )cases required single agents, and 9( 20. 5% ) cases required three agents to achieve blood pressure control.But in the control group, all the patients needed two or more antihypertensive agents, in which 23( 60. 6% )patients needed three agents to achieve blood pressure control. After the treatment, the patients with dipping pattern blood pressure increased from10 to 29( 22. 7% -65. 9% , P lt;0. 05) in the CPAP group, and from10to 14( 26. 3% -36. 8%, P gt;0. 05) in the control group. Conclusions Combination therapy with CPAP and antihypertensive drugs controls blood pressure better than antihypertensive medication only for OSAHS patients with hypertension with fewer types of antihypertensive agents or even withdrawal from antihypertensive medication in some patients.

【Abstract】 Objective To study the effects of obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome ( OSAHS) on blood pressure variations, and explore the possible mechanism. Methods 84 adult patients ( mean age 50. 1 ±14. 8 years, male /female 67 /17) were recruited for polysomnography ( PSG) and ambulatory blood pressure monitoring. Four groups were identified based on apnea hyponea index ( AHI) ,ie. non-OSAHS group ( n=9) ,mild group ( n=19) , moderate group ( n=23) , and severe group ( n =33) .The blood pressure levels were compared among the four groups. Correlations between PSG indexes,variations of systolic blood pressure ( SBP) and diastolic blood pressure ( DBP) were analyzed. Results Inter-group blood pressure comparison showed significant differences in SBP and DBP( P lt;0. 05) , except forthe mild and the moderate OSAHS patients. As compared with the non-OSAHS patients, SBP for those with severe OSAHS was about 15 mm Hg higher, and DBP 10 mm Hg higher. Observation on SBP non-dipping rate indicated that, except for the mild and the moderate OSAHS patients where no significant differences were found, SBP non-dipping rate increased with the severity of OSAHS( the rates were 78. 3%, 57. 1% ,54. 5%, and 32. 6% , respectively for the four groups) , whereas DBP non-dipping rate significantly increased in the severe OSAHS patients( 54. 3% ) ( P lt;0. 05) . For the mild OSAHS patients, blood pressure was found to be correlated positively with the body mass index ( correlation coefficient for day time SBP was 0. 26, and for DBP was 0. 22) , the arousal index ( correlation coefficient for day time SBP was 0. 25, and for DBP was 0. 17) , and heart rate variation ( correlation coefficient for night time SBP was 0. 18, and for DBP was 0. 17) . For the moderate OSAHS patients, a positive correlation was also found between blood pressure and AHI ( correlation coefficient for day time SBP was 0. 31, and for DBP was 0. 22, correlation coefficient fornight time SBP was 0. 26) , and between blood pressure and the longest hypopnea time during sleep ( LH) ( correlation coefficient for night time DBP was 0. 2) . For the severe OSAHS patients, blood pressure was correlated positively with apnea index ( AI) ( correlation coefficient for day time SBP was 0. 61, and for DBP was 0. 5, correlation coefficient for night time SBP was 0. 57 and for night time DBP was 0. 48) . Conclusions OSAHS has ber impact on SBP than on DBP. DBP hypertension and SBP non-dipping are usually found in early OSAHS-affected patients. Factors affecting blood pressure differ with the severity of the OSAHS.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the effectiveness and safety of intensive blood pressure lowering in intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). MethodsRandomised controlled trials (RCTs) and quasi-RCTs about ICH patients receiving intensive blood pressure lowering were searched from PubMed, EMbase, SCIE, The Cochrane Library (Issue 2, 2013), CBM, CNKI, VIP and WanFang Data until March, 2014. Literature was screened according to the exclusion and inclusion criteria by two reviewers independently and meta-analysis was conducted using RevMan 5.2 software after data extraction and quality assessment. ResultsA total of 24 studies were included involving 6 299 patients, of which 10 were RCTs and 14 were quasi-RCTs. The results of meta-analysis showed that intensive blood pressure lowering was superior to guideline-recommended intervention in reducing 24-h hematoma expansion rates (OR=0.36, 95%CI 0.28 to 0.46, P < 0.05), 24-h hematoma expansion volume (MD=-3.71, 95%CI-4.15 to-3.28, P < 0.05) and perihematomal edema volume (MD=-1.09, 95%CI-1.92 to-0.22, P < 0.05). Meanwhile, intensive blood pressure lowering improved 21-d NIHSS score (MD=-3.44, 95%CI-5.02 to-1.87, P < 0.05). But there was no significant difference in mortality and adverse reaction between the two groups. ConclusionCurrent evidence shows that intensive blood pressure lowering could reduce hematoma expansion volume and perihematomal edema volume, which is beneficial to recovery of neurological function, but ICH patients' long-term prognosis needs to be further studied. Due to the limited quantity and quality of the included studies, high quality studies are needed to verify the above conclusion.
The European Society of Cardiology (ESC) released the "2024 ESC guidelines for the management of elevated blood pressure and hypertension" on August 30, 2024. This guideline updates the 2018 "Guidelines for the management of arterial hypertension." One notable update is the introduction of the concept of "elevated blood pressure" (120-139/70-89 mm Hg). Additionally, a new systolic blood pressure target range of 120-129 mm Hg has been proposed for most patients receiving antihypertensive treatment. The guideline also includes numerous additions or revisions in areas such as non-pharmacological interventions and device-based treatments for hypertension. This article interprets the guideline's recommendations on definition and classification of elevated blood pressure and hypertension, and cardiovascular disease risk assessment, diagnosing hypertension and investigating underlying causes, preventing and treating elevated blood pressure and hypertension. We provide a comparison interpretation with the 2018 "Guidelines for the management of arterial hypertension" and the "2017 ACC/AHA guideline on the prevention, detection, evaluation, and management of high blood pressure in adults."
ObjectiveTo investigate the significance of using the term "high-normal blood pressure" and its intervention in the early stage. MethodsIn 1992 and 2007, we performed two similar investigations focusing on cardiovascular risk factors in 711 people in Chengdu city. Since 114 individuals were diagnosed with hypertension, 597 people without hypertension were eligible and divided into two groups:the normal-pressure[<120/80 mm Hg (1 mm Hg=0.133 kPa)] group and the high-normal blood pressure (systolic blood pressure 120-139 mm Hg and/or diastolic blood pressure 80-89 mm Hg) group. Data in the two investigations were compared to explore the relationship among high-normal blood pressure, cardiovascular disease (CVD) and hypertension. ResultsThe high-normal blood pressure group had a higher level of CVD risk factors both in 1992 and 2007, and the 15-year cumulative incidence of hypertension in the high-normal blood pressure group was higher than that of normal-pressure group (91.2% vs. 22.2%, P<0.001). After adjusting for serum lipid, body weight and other CVD risk factors, high-normal blood pressure could predict the progression into hypertension[HR=5.354, 95% CI (4.094, 7.002), P=0.001]. There was no statistics difference in CVD prevalence in the two groups in 1992, but in 2007 the prevalence of CVD tended to be higher in the high-normal blood pressure group (6.6% vs. 3.1%, P=0.052). ConclusionHigh-normal blood pressure is a special stage of blood pressure with high level of CVD risk factors and high potential to progress into hypertension. The term should be emphasized and intervention should be done in the early stage for high-normal blood pressure people to prevent from hypertension and CVD.
Hypertension is the primary disease that endangers human health. A convenient and accurate blood pressure measurement method can help to prevent the hypertension. This paper proposed a continuous blood pressure measurement method based on facial video signal. Firstly, color distortion filtering and independent component analysis were used to extract the video pulse wave of the region of interest in the facial video signal, and the multi-dimensional feature extraction of the pulse wave was preformed based on the time-frequency domain and physiological principles; Secondly, an integrated feature selection method was designed to extract the universal optimal feature subset; After that, we compared the single person blood pressure measurement models established by Elman neural network based on particle swarm optimization, support vector machine (SVM) and deep belief network; Finally, we used SVM algorithm to build a general blood pressure prediction model, which was compared and evaluated with the real blood pressure value. The experimental results showed that the blood pressure measurement results based on facial video were in good agreement with the standard blood pressure values. Comparing the estimated blood pressure from the video with standard blood pressure value, the mean absolute error (MAE) of systolic blood pressure was 4.9 mm Hg with a standard deviation (STD) of 5.9 mm Hg, and the MAE of diastolic blood pressure was 4.6 mm Hg with a STD of 5.0 mm Hg, which met the AAMI standards. The non-contact blood pressure measurement method based on video stream proposed in this paper can be used for blood pressure measurement.
To investigate the effect of stepwise paced breathing (PB) on pulse transit time (PTT), we collected physiological signals of electrocardiogram (ECG), respiration and arterial pulse wave during a procedure of stepwise PB, which consists of 6 different breathing rates changing in a protocol of 14.0-12.5-11.0-9.5-8.0-7.0 breath per minute (BPM), with each breathing rate lasting 3 minutes. Twenty two healthy adults involved in this experiment and the change of PTT was analyzed during the stepwise PB procedure. In our study, the PTT was measured by calculating the time interval from the R-spike of the ECG to the peaks of the second derivative of the arterial pulse wave. Ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD) was applied to PTT to decompose the signal into different intrinsic mode function, and respiratory oscillation and trend component (baseline) in PTT were further extracted. It was found that the respiratory oscillations in the PTT increased with decreasing of the PB rate, and many of the subjects (14 out of 22) showed the phenomena of PTT baseline increasing during the stepwise PB procedure. The results indicated that the stepwise PB procedure induced a high level of cardiovascular oscillation and produced an accumulative effect of PTT baseline increase. As PTT is capable of predicting changes in BP over a short period of time, increase of PTT baseline indicates the decrease of blood pressure. The experiments showed that the stepwise PB procedure could reduce blood pressure for most subjects. For future work, it is necessary to develop certain indices differentiating the effectiveness of the stepwise PB procedure on the PTT baseline change, and to test the effectiveness of this stepwise PB procedure on blood pressure reduction for patients with essential hypertension.
The prevalence of cardiovascular disease in our country is increasing, and it has been a big problem affecting the social and economic development. It has been demonstrated that early intervention of cardiovascular risk factors can effectively reduce cardiovascular disease-caused mortality. Therefore, extensive implementation of cardiovascular testing and risk factor screening in the general population is the key to the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular disease. However, the categories of devices available for quick cardiovascular testing are limited, and in particular, many existing devices suffer from various technical problems, such as complex operation, unclear working principle, or large inter-individual variability in measurement accuracy, which lead to an overall low popularity and reliability of cardiovascular testing. In this study, we introduce the non-invasive measurement mechanisms and relevant technical progresses for several typical cardiovascular indices (e.g., peripheral/central arterial blood pressure, and arterial stiffness), with emphasis on describing the applications of biomechanical modeling and simulation in mechanism verification, analysis of influential factors, and technical improvement/innovation.
