Alcohol Consumption Index as a Novel Risk Marker for Hypertension

Effects of Kiwifruit Consumption on Blood Pressure in Adults: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Hypertension represents a major public health challenge worldwide. Nutritional strategies, particularly increased fruit consumption, are being explored as non‐pharmacological means of regulating blood pressure (BP). Kiwifruit, a fruit high in potassium and antioxidant compounds, has been proposed to exert antihypertens...

Joint Association of Triglyceride‐Glucose Index and a Body Shape Index With Risk of Cardiovascular Disease Among Adults With Prediabetes

This study aimed to investigate whether concurrent high TyG and ABSI confer an additive CVD risk in this population of prediabetes.

Cardiometabolic phenotypes in arterial hypertension: associations with ACE, AGTR1, and NOS3 polymorphisms

To study the associations of the polymorphic variants rs4646994 of the ACE gene, rs5186 of the AGTR1 gene, and rs1799983 of the NOS3 gene with anthropometric and bodycomposition obesity phenotypes, vascular stiffness, the triglyceride-glucose index (TyG) and lipid accumulation product (LAP) in Caucasian patients with a...

Association between the triglyceride/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio and isolated nocturnal hypertension.

The Association Between Atherogenic Index of Plasma and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in a Multi‐Ethnic Population of Premature Coronary Artery Disease Patients: Insights From IPAD Study

The atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) is a lipid‐based indicator of cardiometabolic risk. We examined whether AIP is associated with prevalent type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and fasting blood sugar (FBS) in patients with premature coronary artery disease (PCAD) and explored whether this association differed across Ira...

Blood pressure targets for hypertension in people with diabetes mellitus

Objectives This is a protocol for a Cochrane review (intervention). The objectives are as follows: To determine if lower blood pressure (BP) targets (i.e. ≤ 130/85 mmHg), compared with standard BP targets (i.e. ≤ 140 to 160/90 to 100 mmHg) are associated with reduction in mortality and morbidity in people with elevated...
