An outcome-driven threshold for pulse pressure amplification Open
Pulse pressure amplification (PPA) is the brachial-to-aortic pulse pressure ratio and decreases with age and cardiovascular risk factors. This individual-participant meta-analysis of population studies aimed to define an outcome-driven thr…

Use of single pill anti-hypertensive combination medications in Cardiology Clinic of a Tertiary Health Institution in Nigeria Open
Background: Majority of patients with hypertension require 2 or more medications to provide adequate blood pressure (BP) control. In addition, contemporary guidelines on the management of hypertension favor the use of single-pill combinati…

The International Database of Central Arterial Properties for Risk Stratification: Research Objectives and Baseline Characteristics of Participants Open
OBJECTIVE To address to what extent central hemodynamic measurements, improve risk stratification, and determine outcome-based diagnostic thresholds, we constructed the International Database of Central Arterial Properties for Risk Stratif…

Prevalence and Determinants of Masked Hypertension in Nigeria: The REMAH Study Open
Background Estimating the burden of hypertension in Nigeria hitherto relied on clinic blood pressure (BP) measurement alone. This excludes individuals with masked hypertension (MH), i.e., normotensive clinic but hypertensive out-of-clinic …

Cardiovascular End Points and Mortality Are Not Closer Associated With Central Than Peripheral Pulsatile Blood Pressure Components Open
Pulsatile blood pressure (BP) confers cardiovascular risk. Whether associations of cardiovascular end points are tighter for central systolic BP (cSBP) than peripheral systolic BP (pSBP) or central pulse pressure (cPP) than peripheral puls…
