Epidemiological Study In Hypertensive Patients: Assessment Of Risk Factors Prevalence And Of Patients'...
HypertensionTo assess the pattern of hypertension in the population in terms of presence of additional risk factors (ARF) and cardiovascular risk stratification.

A Comfort Survey of Open-angle Glaucoma or Ocular Hypertension Patients Treated With 2 Drugs
Open-angle GlaucomaOcular HypertensionThe objective of the study was to evaluate whether timolol hemihydrate is more comfortable upon instillation than timolol maleate in sorbate. This was an observational study. Subjects with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension were asked to complete a survey regarding their normal treatment. No treatment was prescribed.

Survey of Thai-Muslim Health Status
DiabetesHypertension1 moreThe purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence and risk factors of diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia among Thai muslim population aged 35-75 years.

Biomarkers in the Evaluation of Chronic Lung Disease
Pulmonary HypertensionPulmonary Arterial Hypertension1 moreWe hypothesize that hypoxia-induced pulmonary vascular remodeling is mediated by macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF), that remodeling is in fact the reflection of a chronic inflammatory process, and that MIF may be a useful biomarker of the severity and progression of both ILD and PH.

The Study Of CT Scans and Echo Parameters in Patients With PAH
Pulmonary HypertensionCurrent standard of the diagnosis and monitoring of PHNT requiring combination of invasive and non-invasive tests. The goal of the study is to correlate data from CT scans, echocardiograms, right heart catheterization, PFTs, sleep studies, and perfusion scans. The ultimate goal is to determine patterns of the PAH disease processes.

Pulmonary Hypertension in Trisomy 21 Patients
Congenital DisordersEvidence has shown poor outcome for adult patients with pre-operative pulmonary hypertension following closure of an atrial septal defect. Life-threatening pulmonary hypertensive crises may occur in these patients when they no longer have an atrial communication to decompress high right heart pressures. This concern has led some to advocate fenestrated patch closure of ASDs in patients with pulmonary hypertension with the prospect of a repeated procedure in order to close the fenestrations at a later date.

Heart Rate Variability in White Coat Hypertension and Essential Hypertension
Essential HypertensionWhite Coat Hypertension1 moreThe aim of the study is to investigate heart rate variability in patients with white coat hypertension and patients with essential hypertension.

The Hypertension in the Very Elderly Trial (HYVET)
HypertensionThe purpose of this study is to assess the benefits and risks of treating very elderly (those aged 80 or older) individuals with hypertension.

Genes of Hypertension in African Americans
Cardiovascular DiseasesHeart Diseases1 moreTo identify genes contributing to hypertension in African Americans by focusing on the physiological pathways that determine arterial pressure.

Proper Timing of Control of Hypertension and Outcome in Acute Spontaneous Intracerebral Hemorrhage....
Intra Cerebral HemorrhageHypertensionThe ideal management of blood pressure in BP after acute intracerebral haemorrhage is still debated and whether a higher intensive reduction of blood pressure after acute intracerebral haemorrhage may be better or not is still controversial. Conflicting results from different randomized trials in regards to the clinical guidelines for management of hypertension in people with acute intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). These results indicate that the management of BP and the prognosis after acute spontaneous ICH are very complicated. Therefore, analysis based on actual blood pressure (BP) accomplished may be a more efficient method to assess the impact of BP management on outcome of ICH. In our research, blood pressure (BP) management and prognosis were studied in patients with acute intracerebral hemorrhage to decide the perfect time control BP to improve outcome.
