In 84 patients with insufficiently treated essential hypertension (systolic blood pressure > or = 160 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure > or = 100 mmHg) and normal renal function (creatinine clearance Mean +/- SD = 114 +/- 22 ml/min/1.73 m2) the mean urinary albumin excretion was 39 +/- 19 mg/24h

OBJECTIVE The aim of our study was to analyse, in a wide group of essential hypertensive patients without diabetes mellitus, the influence of metabolic syndrome (MS) (defined according to the criteria laid down in the Third Report of the National Cholesterol Education Program Expert Panel on

The frequency of combined target organ damage and the beneficial effect of ambulatory blood pressure monitoring in never treated mild-to-moderate hypertensive patients.

Only registered users can translate articles

The aim of this study was to determine the frequency of target organ damage (TOD) and the beneficial properties of ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) for detecting patients who are at high risk for TOD and cardiovascular disease in never treated mild-to-moderate hypertension. Sixty-seven

The deletion polymorphism of the angiotensin I-converting enzyme gene is associated with target organ damage in essential hypertension.

Only registered users can translate articles

The activity of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system is thought to play a significant role in the development of target organ damage in essential hypertension. An insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism of the angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) gene has recently been associated with increased

Association between salt sensitivity and target organ damage in essential hypertension.

Cardiovascular events occur more frequently in sodium-sensitive patients with essential hypertension; recently, sodium sensitivity was shown to be a cardiovascular risk factor independently of other classic factors such as blood pressure and cigarette smoking This study examined the relationship

High prevalence of retinal vascular changes in never-treated essential hypertensives: an inter- and intra-observer reproducibility study with non-mydriatic retinography.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND The clinical significance of stratifying cardiovascular risk in hypertensive patients on the basis of retinal changes such as arteriolar narrowing or arterio-venous crossing has been criticized. OBJECTIVE Objectives of the study were: (i) to compare the prevalence of retinal abnormalities

Microalbuminuria, renal dysfunction and cardiovascular complication in essential hypertension.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the prevalence of microalbuminuria (albumin excretion rate, AER) in a wide hypertensive population, and to evaluate any relationship with cardiovascular damage and renal dysfunction. METHODS A transversal study. METHODS In 383 hospitalized Caucasian essential hypertensives (198

Evaluation of target organ damage in arterial hypertension: which role for qualitative funduscopic examination?

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND The objective of this study was to compare the prevalence of quantitative markers of target organ damage, such as echocardiographically documented left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), carotid structural changes and microalbuminuria with that of retinal abnormalities detected by qualitative

Urinary N-acetyl B glucosaminidase as an earlier marker of diabetic nephropathy and influence of low-dose perindopril/indapamide combination.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Tubulointerstitial injury is both a key feature of diabetic nephropathy and an important predictor of renal dysfunction. N-Acetyl B glucosaminidase (NAG) is derived from proximal tubular cells and is widely used to evaluate tubular renal function. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study is

Hypertensive crisis with 2 target organ impairment induced by glycyrrhizin: A case report.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Glycyrrhizin is the main active component of licorice. Licorice and glycyrrhizin induced hypertension has been widely reported, yet licorice and glycyrrhizin induced hypertensive crisis has been rarely known. UNASSIGNED The case of this report was a 47-year-old woman, who took 225 mg of

Prevalence of micro- and macroalbuminuria and their relationship with other cardiovascular risk factors in essential hypertension.

Only registered users can translate articles

A cohort of 227 untreated essential hypertensive patients from north-western Italy was studied in order to evaluate the prevalence of micro- and macroalbuminuria and their relationship with other cardiovascular risk factors. Albuminuria was evaluated as the albumin to creatinine ratio (Alb/Cr) in

Prevalence and Clinical Correlates of Microalbuminuria in Patients with Essential Hypertension - A Tertiary Care Center Cross Sectional Study.

Only registered users can translate articles

UNASSIGNED Albuminuria is predictor of target organ damage and worse cardiovascular outcomes. Microalbuminuria has been found in a large number of patients with essential hypertension. Aim of our study was to evaluate the frequency of microalbuminuria in essential hypertension and to study its

Microalbuminuria in patients with essential hypertension and its relationship to target organ damage: an Indian experience.

Only registered users can translate articles

Persistent microalbuminuria (MA) is the earliest indicator of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in patients with diabetes mellitus and hypertension. Patients with MA have high risk for target organ damage (TOD) resulting in stroke, retinopathy and adverse cardiovascular events. Though the prevalence of

Only registered users can translate articles

In patients with essential hypertension increased albumin excretion in the urine compared to healthy controls is well known. In 38 patients (age: Mean +/- SD = 37 +/- 16 yr, f: m = 19:19) with benign essential hypertension and normal renal function (creatinine clearance: Mean +/- SD = 99 +/- 16

[Microalbuminuria in essential hypertension: of limited value as an indicator of patients with a high risk for complications].

Only registered users can translate articles

Microalbuminuria is usually defined as a urinary albumin excretion of 30-300 mg/24 h (i.e. 20-200 micrograms/min) measured, in view of the short-term variation of 15-30%, in at least 2 out of 3 urine samples. An alternative definition is: an albumin-creatinine ratio of 2-20 mg/mmol creatinine.
