Can cuffless wearable devices track BP changes?

13 Jul 2023 by

A cuffless wearable device may help improve hypertension management if it demonstrates accuracy and clinical utility. However, a recent study has found that a commercially available blood pressure (BP) monitoring device does not accurately track night-time BP decline and medication-induced BP changes.

Urinary CKD273 predicts early renal damage in primary hypertension

12 Jul 2023

A classifier developed based on 273 urinary peptides (CKD273) can predict new-onset proteinuria in patients with primary hypertension and be used to diagnose those with early renal injury, reports a study. This predictor contributes to the early prevention and treatment of hypertensive nephropathy.

Anticoagulation lowers mortality in patients with cirrhosis, portal vein thrombosis

11 Jul 2023

Treatment with anticoagulants helps improve survival in patients with cirrhosis and portal vein thrombosis independently of recanalization, suggests a study. However, anticoagulation may increase the risk of nonportal hypertension-related bleeding.

Subsequent pregnancies in women with peripartum cardiomyopathy tied to adverse events

07 Jul 2023

Subsequent pregnancies (SSPs) may lead to adverse outcomes in women with peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM), reveals a study, noting that the normalization of left ventricular function is not an assurance for a positive outcome in SSPs.
