Water-soluble tomato concentrate (WSTC) has demonstrated beneficial effect on blood flow in healthy populations. The prospective, randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled clinical trial was conducted to explore the impact of WSTC on individuals with elevated cholesterol levels. Sixty participants aged 35–65 with high cholesterol were enroll...

Background Sex differences exist in cardiovascular disease risk factors including elevated blood pressure and arterial stiffness, and decreased endothelial function in males compared to females. Feminine gender expression may be associated with elevated risk of acute coronary syndrome. However, no study has investigated the associations between sex...

Background The efficacy of the angiotensin receptor neprilysin inhibitor (ARNI) sacubitril/valsartan (SV) in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) has been established. Two meta-analyses have demonstrated its significant role in enhancing ventricular remodeling. However, the effectiveness and safety of its use in patients with end-stage renal ...

Background The influence of atrial fibrillation (AF) and blood pressure (BP) on brain lesions and cognitive function is unclear. We aimed to investigate the association of BP with different types of brain lesions and cognitive decline in patients with AF.Methods Overall, 1,213 AF patients underwent standardized brain magnetic resonance imaging at b...

Physiological Measurement
Objective. The present study investigated how breathing stimuli affect both non-linear and linear metrics of the autonomic nervous system (ANS). Approach. The analysed dataset consisted of 70 young, healthy volunteers, in whom arterial blood pressure (ABP) was measured noninvasively during 5 min sessions of controlled breathing at three different f...

Physiological reports
Endothelin-1 (ET-1) and its receptors are linked to increases in sensitivity of the chemoreceptors to hypoxic stress and the development of hypertension in preclinical models. We hypothesized ET receptor antagonism would lower resting blood pressure (BP) as well as the acute BP response to chemoreflex stress. Twenty-four men (31 ± 5 years, 26 ± 3 k...

Critical reviews in food science and nutrition
Several randomized controlled trials (RCTs) have investigated the effects of fermented foods on metabolic outcomes in adult patients suffering from diabetes and prediabetes. However, the results of these RCTs are conflicting. This systematic review and meta-analysis was carried out on data from RCTs to evaluate the effects of fermented foods in pat...

Intraoperative hypotension (IOH) poses significant risks during surgeries, necessitating effective management to ensure patient safety and successful outcomes. The Hypotension Prediction Index (HPI) software was developed as a decision support model to assist anesthesiologists in monitoring and addressing hypotensive episodes during non-cardiac sur...

Introduction Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is responsible for over 30% of mortality worldwide. CVD arises from the complex influence of molecular, clinical, social, and environmental factors. Despite the growing number of autosomal genetic variants contributing to CVD, the cause of most CVDs is still unclear. Mitochondria are crucial in the pathophy...
