Active clinical trials for "Hypertension"

The AASK is a multicenter, randomized, controlled clinical trial using a 2 × 3 factorial design to evaluate the effects of level of blood pressure control and type of anti-hypertensive medication on progression of chronic renal disease among African American men and women with chronic renal insufficiency caused by hypertension (hypertensive nephrosclerosis).

The primary objectives of this study are to assess the safety/tolerability and efficacy (by evaluating changes in pulmonary vascular resistance [PVR] and pulmonary blood volume [PBV]) of MK-3475 in participants with pulmonary hypotension associated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (PH-COPD). The primary hypothesis is that 28 days of MK-5475 treatment is superior to placebo treatment in reduction of PVR.

How to construct a novel, non-invasive, accurate, and convenient method to achieve prediction of hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) is an important general problem in the management of portal hypertension in cirrhosis. We plan to investigate the ability of AI analysis of Ultrasound, computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance (MR) to establish a risk stratification system and perform tailored management for portal hypertension in cirrhosis.

Hypertension is a common condition that can cause serious events such as stroke, coronary heart disease and heart failure. Homocysteine (Hcy) is a substance in the body that is harmful to blood vessels. Hyperhomocysteinemia (plasma Hcy≥10 mol/L), which is associated with hypertension, significantly increases the risk of stroke. This type of high blood pressure is called type "H" hypertension. Enalapril folic acid tablet is an innovative drug developed independently in China and is the first choice for the treatment of H type hypertension. Patients with type H hypertension should be treated with enalapril folic acid tablets to reduce stroke. However, some patients had poor blood pressure control after monotherapy. At this time, other antihypertensive drugs should be used in combination. Amlodipine and Hydrochlorothiazide are the most commonly used and the best combination. The purpose of this study was to observe the difference in the efficacy of enalapril folic acid tablets in patients with uncontrolled blood pressure who were well tolerated and randomized to aminoclodipine or hydrochlorothiazide in reducing stroke and other cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events, and to explore the relationship between various alternative measures and efficacy.

To compare the pharmacokinetics and safety after a single dose administration of Telmione plus® 80/12.5mg and Micardis plus® 80/12.5mg in healthy adult volunteers

Single-center, randomized, parallel-group, controlled, open-label study. The aim of the study was to evaluate the effects of an exercise training program intervention of different intensities (high intensity versus low-moderate intensity) on blood pressure reduction as a complementary strategy in hypertensive individuals being treated with at least one antihypertensive drug.

The aim of this study is to test the feasibility and effectiveness of a 16-week online behavioral weight loss program compared to usual care to promote weight loss in the postpartum period among women with cardiovascular risk factors. The investigators will also be testing different behavioral strategies to recruit postpartum women to the study, including 2 email recruitment strategies and 2 mailer recruitment strategies, informed by behavioral design.

Aim To compare between the effect of aerobic exercise versus device guided breathing (DGB) on blood pressure in gestational hypertensive patients. Participants and Methods Randomized controlled trial, which included 60 singleton pregnant women (at 21-week gestation) diagnosed with gestational hypertension. They were divided into two groups: group (A) received aerobic exercise with a treadmill twice a week, for 45 minutes; and group (B) received Device guided breathing exercise for at least 40 min per week, with each session lasting at least 10 min. Assessment of the systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) for all participants in the two studied groups (A, B) was carried out at begining of the study and at week-36 of gestation with mercury column sphygmomanometer.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of IONIS-AGT-LRx compared to placebo on seated automated office systolic blood pressure (SBP) from baseline to Study Day 85 in uncontrolled hypertensive participants on ≥ 3 antihypertensive medications and to evaluate the effect of IONIS-AGT-LRx on ambulatory blood pressure, seated automated office SBP, seated automated office diastolic blood pressure (DBP), and plasma angiotensinogen (AGT) at each scheduled visit in uncontrolled hypertensive participants on ≥ 3 antihypertensive medications.

To investigate the anti-inflammatory effect of amlodipine and levamlodipine in the treatment of hypertension
