Hypertension, Ahead of Print. BACKGROUND:We conducted meta-analyses to identify relationships between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) severity, muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA), and blood pressure (BP). We quantified the effect of OSA treatment on MSNA.METHODS:Structured searches of (...) (Hypertension)

Hypertension, Ahead of Print. Besides the physiological regulation of water, sodium, and potassium homeostasis, aldosterone modulates several physiological and pathological processes in the cardiovascular system. At the vascular level, aldosterone excess stimulates endothelial dysfunction and (...) (Hypertension)

Hypertension, Ahead of Print. Background:Aortic stiffening is strongly associated with both aging and hypertension, but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. We hypothesized that aging-induced aortic stiffness involves distinct pathways than stiffening from hypertension.Methods:We conducted (...) (Hypertension)

Hypertension, Ahead of Print. BACKGROUND:Previous studies found that antihypertensive medications (AHMs) acting on the renin-angiotensin system had the potential to reduce the progression from mild cognitive impairment to dementia. However, it remains unclear whether this association differs (...) (Hypertension)
