Abstract:
Background: Eclampsia, severe form of hypertensive disorders during pregnancy (HDsP), characterized by seizures, which may progress to life-threatening cerebral hemorrhage, HELLP syndrome, multi-organ failure also. It places women and babies at higher risk of adverse outcomes with severe maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality globally. Objective: Community based study was conducted to know awareness of eclampsia amongst rural pregnant women. Material and Methods: Study setting- Study was conducted in 140 villages around village with study headquarters. Study sample- A total of 2,000 subjects, aged 15-45 years, and a minimum of 10 subjects from each village were randomly included. Study design- This is an observational cross-sectional study. After Institute's ethics committee's approval, information of awareness about eclampsia amongst pregnant women was collected by interviews at mutually convenient places, recorded using a pre-designed tool with some questions having yes/no answers, others short answers. Results: Out of 2,000 study subjects, 70.3% had availed antenatal care (ANC). More than half were aged 20-29 years, low economic class, and agricultural laborers. Irrespective of gestation, ANC received, mainly at Anganwadi- Accredited Social Health Activist (ASHAs), Primary Health Centre (PHCs), Sub centers (SCs), 61.1% were aware of possibilities of convulsions, 44% during labor, 32% during pregnancy, and 24% post birth. Age and parity were not significant factors, but education, profession, and economic status were significant. Some had awareness about consequences of convulsions like bleeding, severe morbidity, and death of baby. 72.1% of women had some awareness, knew prevention was possible, most by proper ANC and blood pressure control. Conclusion: Even during pregnancy, around one-third women were unaware of possibilities of convulsions. Among those who were aware, most were oblivious about dangerous consequences, unaware of prevention of convulsions. Education and economic status had significant linkage with awareness. Community workers and nurses were sources of information in the majority. It is imperative to keep them in the net and mobilize individuals from communities for awareness of dangerous disorders like Eclampsia.

Abstract:
Background: Despite the benefits of cardiac rehabilitation (CR), local and national CR referral and participation rates remain low when compared to established cardiovascular therapies especially amongst racial/ethnic groups. Objectives: This study investigated the effects of the implementation of a CR program and electronic order set (EOS) in a large health system on CR referral and participation rates among a diverse group of patients with coronary heart disease (CHD). Methods: A total of 360 patients from UCSD Health who presented with ACS were prospectively evaluated during initial hospitalization and 6- and 12-weeks post-discharge. Multivariable logistic regression model assessed referral and participation rates by week-1 and -12 post-discharge, adjusting for gender, age, race, ethnicity, geography, and referring physician subspecialty. Results: UCSD CR program implementation led referral rates to increase at week-1 (Pre- 38.6% and Post-54.9%, p = 0.003) and week-12 (Pre- 54.1% and Post- 59.8%, p = 0.386). Post-CR referrals were more likely at week-1 (OR: 1.93, 95% CI 1.27-2.95) and week-12 (OR: 1.26, 95% CI 0.79-2.00). EOS implementation increased referral rates at week-1 (Pre- 40.3% and Post- 58.7%, p<0.001) and week-12 (Pre- 54.9% and Post- 60.4%, p=0.394) with referrals more likely at week-1 (OR: 2.1, 95% CI 1.35-3.29) and week-12 (OR: 1.25, 95% CI 0.795-1.98). Participation in CR following EOS was more likely at both week-1 and week-12. Multivariable analysis revealed disparities in referral based on race, geographic location, and referring physician subspecialty. Conclusion: A CR program and EOS implementation were shown to increase referral rates with long-term potential for increasing referral and participation rates. Condensed Abstract: This prospective study investigated the implementation of a cardiac rehabilitation (CR) program and electronic order set (EOS) within the same health system on CR referral and participation rates. 360 patients with ACS were evaluated over a period of 12 weeks. UCSD CR program and EOS implementation led referral rates to increase at week-1 and -12. CR participation was more likely to increase at week-1 and -12 following EOS. Multivariable analysis revealed disparities in referrals disproportionally affecting racial and ethnic minority groups and rural communities. CR and EOS implementation may increase CR referral rates for diverse patients with CHD.

Abstract:
Arterial hypertension (AH)is currently considered the most significant risk factor for the development of not only acute cerebrovascular accidents and chronic cerebral ischemia, but also disorders of memory and other cognitive (cognitive) functions. Numerous studies have proven the connection between persistent increase in blood pressure (BP) and the risk of the onset and progression of cognitive impairment. The positive dynamics on the part of clinical and hemodynamicparameters is explained by the fact that gliatilin improves thetransmission of nerve impulses in cholinergic neurons; positively affects the plasticity of neuronal membranes and receptor function. Gliatilin improves cerebral blood flow, enhances metabolic processes in the brain, activates the structures of the reticular formation of the brain and restores consciousness in traumatic brain lesions.

Abstract:
Hypertension is a global health problem that causes significant morbidity and mortality. The aim of the study is to determine the hypertension knowledge level of hypertension patients. This descriptive study is carried on with 207 patients who applied to a private medical clinic in Ankara, Turkey between January and March 2022. A semi-structured interview method was employed in the study to collect data. The questionnaire contains two sections. In the first section, the Sociodemographic characteristics form,, and in the second section, Hypertension Knowledge-Level Scale (HK-LS) are used. The data were analyzed with the SPSS 21.0. The age range of the patients participating in the study varies between 18-73 years, and the mean age is 54.3±4.2. Among the participants, 53.1% of them are women, and 70.5% of them are married. The HK-LS average of the participants is found (16.3±3.45). As a result, the hypertension knowledge level of the patients is found to be high in the study. The hypertension knowledge level is higher among the young than the elderly, those who pay regular visits to doctors than those who do not, and university graduates compared to primary school graduates. In order to increase the patients' knowledge level, it is believed that it will be useful to offer training and organize seminars, especially for the elderly, primary school graduates, and those who do not pay regular visits to doctors.

Abstract:
Consumption of pulse crops has been linked to improvements in blood vessel function, but which pulse variety/type is better and how they work remains unknown. Two distinct studies were conducted to address these questions. In study 1, spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) were fed control diet, or diets containing 30% (w/w) beans, peas, lentils, chickpeas, or mixed pulses. Normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats were fed the control diet. The lentil–containing diet significantly attenuated the rise in BP (+8 and +31 mmHg, vs. control) and reduced large artery remodeling compared to control. In study 2, SHR were fed control, mixed lentil, green lentil, or red lentil diets for 8 weeks. WKY were fed control or mixed lentil diets. Green lentils decreased arterial remodeling and improved arterial compliance in the SHR. A diet high in green lentils could be a valuable adjunct to allopathic medicine to mitigate effects of hypertension on the vasculature.

Abstract:
Medicinal plants have long been used in folkloric medicine in various parts of the world. Presence of phenolic compounds has been attributed to their medicinal properties. Despite various medicinal uses, scientific claims of anti-hypertensive activities are still deficient. Therefore, hydroethanolic (70% ethanol) extracts of the leaf and root parts of T. officinale (TOL and TOR respectively) were investigated for anti-hypertensive antioxidant, diuretic activities, and effects on lipid profile in L-Name-induced hypertensive Wistar rats. Phytochemical screening of TOL and TOR was assessed by known standardized method. Acute toxicity profile of the plant was also evaluated by Lorke’s method. Total phenolic and flavonoid contents were assessed using Folin Ciocalteau and Aluminium chloride colorimetric methods; while, 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), 2, 2’–azino-bis-3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulphonic acid (ABTS)and ferric antioxidant reducing power (FRAP) protocols were used for their radical scavenging and total antioxidant capacities respectively. Spontaneously hypertensive rats were used for acute antihypertensive study while for the 21 days antihypertensive study, hypertension was induced by administering L-Name (40 mg/kg) for 4 weeks and, CODA 8 Non-invasive tail cuff machine was used to measure blood pressure. With the aid of a semi-auto chemistry analyzer, lipid profile of Taraxacum officinale (TO) was determined using Biosinol reagents. TOL and TOR also significantly reduced systolic, diastolic and mean arterial blood pressures up until 4 hours with the leaf part most active in single dose study using SHR model. TOL and TOR also significantly lowered systolic, diastolic and mean arterial blood pressures with the leaf part most active in 21 days study using and L-Name-induced HTN models. However, these plant extracts did not have a diuretic effect, but seems to exert its antihypertensive effects by modulating NO production and possibly bioavailability, by acting via an endothelium-dependent pathway. This study validates the traditional use of the leaf part of the plant as an antihypertensive agent.

Abstract:
Abstract Hypertension complicates 5% to 10% of all pregnancies, and it is a major cause of maternal morbidity and mortality worldwide. Hypertensive disorders complicate pregnancy and can lead to significant maternal and fetal complications. Hypertensive disorders are classified into clinical classes that include chronic hypertension, gestational hypertension, hypertension with superimposed preeclampsia, and preeclampsia. During treatment of hypertensive disorders, attention should be given to fetal effects of antihypertensive medications and to maintenance of adequate uteroplacental perfusion. Intense sympathetic stimulation due to labor pain or direct laryngoscopy and intubation may lead to acute severe hypertension, which can then lead to life-threatening maternal complications.

Abstract:
Abstract The discovery of the powerful pressure sensing and regulating role of the carotid sinuses by Heinrich Hering in 1923 led to the intuitively attractive hypothesis that baroreceptor malfunction causes hypertension. This hypothesis was supported by his studies conducted in anaesthetized dogs, which showed that acute carotid sinus baroreceptor denervation provokes hypertension (Hering 1924; Koch and Mies 1928). However, it was not long before evidence against this hypothesis began to appear. As early as 1934, Koch and Mattonet showed that baroreceptor denervation does not necessarily lead to hypertension. In 1936, other arguments were raised by the study of G.W. Pickering et al., which showed that unilateral carotid artery occlusion in hypertensive patients increases blood pressure. Persistence of this reflex response in hypertensive patients suggests that carotid baroreceptors are sensing pressure changes and initiating appropriate reflex adjustments.

Abstract:
Since the pathogenesis of hypertension is still discussed the aim of this study was to investigate behaviour of platelets and kallikrein system in patients suffering from this disease. In 30 patients with essential hypertension, aged 23-31 years and 20 normotensive healthy subjects, aged 21-35 years the following parameters of platelet function were studied: platelet aggregation induced with ADP,platelet activating factor (PAF) and arachidonic acid (AA) according Born's method, plasma beta-thromboglobulin (Beta-TG) and platelet factor 4 (PF4) , plasma thromboxane B2 (TXB2) and cyclic AMP using radioimmunoassay kits. The activity of kallikrein and factor XII was also determined using Chromo-zym PK (Boehringer Mannheim GmbH). The hypertensive patients demonstrated a greater platelet aggregability by ADP and PAF, elevated concentrations of Beta-TG and TXB2 as well as decreased level of cyclic AMP in comparison to normotensive subjects. No significantly changes in platelet aggregability by AA and activity of PF4 were found in the group of hypertensive patients. There were also significantly decreased plasma concentrations of kallikrein and factor XII in these patients. Obtained results have shown hyperfunction of blood platelets and depletion of kallikrein system in the patients with essential hypertension. These results suggest that among different pathogenic factors function of blood platelets and kallikrein system should be taken into consideration.

Abstract:
Background: Tertiary hypertension prevention is an effort to prevent hypertensive patients from disabilities and complications, which lead to improve their quality of life. The biopsychosocial aspect influences individual behavior in maintaining blood pressure. This study aimed to analyze the biopsychosocial determinants of tertiary prevention behavior in hypertensive patients. Subjects and Method: A cross sectional study was conducted at 25 integrated health posts (posbindu) in Sragen, Central Java. A sample of 200 hypertensive patients was selected by stratified random sampling. The dependent variable was tertiary hypertension preventive behavior. The independent variables were attitude, observational learning, role model, imitation, vicarious learning, reinforcement, self-efficacy, self-regulation, and outcome expectation. The data were collected by questionnaire and analyzed by a multiple logistic regression. Results: Tertiary hypertension preventive behavior increased with observational learning (b= 1.83; 95% CI= 0.31 to 3.35; p= 0.018), role model (b= 1.95; 95% CI= 0.75 to 3.16; p= 0.001), imitation (b= 2.13; 95% CI= 0.89 to 3.38; p= 0.001), vicarious learning (b= 1.60; 95% CI= 0.23 to 2.96; p= 0.022), reinforcement (b= 2.86; 95% CI= 1.25 to 4.47; p<0.001), self-efficacy (b= 1.99; 95% CI= 0.73 to 3.25; p= 0.002), self-regulation (b= 1.39; 95% CI= 0.18 to 2.61; p= 0.024), outcome expectation (b= 2.37; 95% CI= 0.85 to 3.89; p= 0.002), and positive attitude (b= 1.76; 95% CI= 0.40 to 3.13; p=0.011). Conclusion: Tertiary hypertension preventive behavior increases with observational learning, role model, imitation, vicarious learning, reinforcement, self-efficacy, self-regulation, outcome expectation, and positive attitude.

Abstract:
Borderline hypertension causes mortality and morbidity rates similar to those associated with estabilished hypertension. However, there is no univocal guideline for its therapeutic management. Hypercoagulability in hypertension has been demonstrated. The aim of our study was to evaluate some coagulation factors in agroup of patients affected by borderlinehypertension. The following tests were carried out: PT and PTT, Factor VIII coagulant activity, FVIII antigen and FVIII ristocetin cofactor, Factor XII and Factor XI activities. These tests were selected for their relationship to the contact coagulative activation near the vascular wall. In our patients statistically significant higher FVIII and FXII coagulant activities than normal control subjects were found. Moreover, an evident even though not statistically significant PTT shortening was seen. Other tests taken into consideration were all within normal limits. Our results suggest that an increased FVIII and FXII synthesis and/or release is present, and an activated coagulation system exists in borderline hypertension. Furthermore, it is not clear why an excess of FVIII:C over FVIIIR:Ag and FVIIIR:RCof was found in our patients. In conclusion, an activation of haemostatic mechanism was found in borderline hypertension. The young age of patients and the absence of evident hypertensive angiopathy are in agreement with an overactivity of blood vessel tone. Haemostatic activation could be an useful marker in favour of the precious management of patients with borderline hypertension.

Abstract:
Hypertension is an important risk factor in the pathogenesis of arteriosclerosis and its thrombotic complications. Therefore, we investigated platelet and vessel wall reactivity in 7 subhuman primates (7.0 Macaca mulatta). Five monkeys received a psychosocial stress over a long-term period, three developed a stress-induced hypertension. Two unstressed normotensive monkeys served as e control. Platelet turnover in vivo, synthesis of platelet prostanoids, and various platelet function tests in vitro were determined. Vessel wall reactivity was assessed histo-pathologically and by means of H-thymidin-incorpora-tion into vessel segments in vitro. In the hypertensive rhesus monkeys an accelerated platelet turnover, accompanied with a decreased platelet count, and a markedly increased plasma-TXB2-level were found. ADP-induced platelet aggregation was slightly enhanced. Additionally, platelet adhesion to collagen-coated surfaces was investigated. We found the platelet attachment, spreading, and the formation of platelet mural thrombi to be significantly enhanced in the hypertensive animals. Histopathological examination of large arteries revealed signs of an increased intra-vital vasocontraction as well as enlargement of the relative vessel wall cross-section area in the hypertensive rhesus monkeys. Autoradiographical determination of the thymidine-incorporation in vitro allows investigation of cell proliferation in the intima and media of vessels. We found hypertension-related alterations of the media not only in large, but also in small vessels. Additionally, primary cultures of aortic endothelial cells were established and concentration of endothelial cell-specific metabolites was measured in the conditioned media. Our results confirm the existence of hypertension-related changes in platelet and vessel wall reactivity.

Abstract:
Background: Blood pressure control is an important component of cardiovascular disease prevention. Despite the advances in the treatment of hypertension; effective management remains poor. Studies have shown that acupuncture facilitated a significant reduction in blood pressure. The purpose of this study was to examine the effectiveness of acupuncture therapy in reducing blood pressure on hypertensive patients. Subjects and Method: This was a meta-analysis and systematic review. The study was conducted by collected articles from PubMed, Google Schoolar, Mendeley, and Hindawi databases. Keywords used “acupuncture hypertension” OR “acupuncture high blood pressure” AND “efficacy acupuncture” AND “hypertension” AND “effect acupuncture for hypertension” AND “randomized controlled trial” AND “visual analogue scale”. The study population was patients with hypertension. The intervention was acupuncture. The comparison was sham acupuncture. The outcome was blood pressure reduction. The inclusion criteria were full text with English language and using randomized controlled trial study design. The selected articles were analyzed by PRISMA flow diagram and RevMan 5.3. Results: 7 articles were studied. There was high heterogeneity between experiment groups (I2= 66%; p= 0.007). Acupuncture therapy was more effective to reduce blood pressure than sham acupuncture (Standardized Mean Difference= 0.13; 95% CI= -0.13 to 0.39; p= 0.320). Conclusion: Acupuncture therapy is effective to reduce blood pressure in patients with hypertension. Keywords: hypertension, acupuncture Correspondence: Fahmi Eko Susilo.

Abstract:
The signs of hyperventilation syndrome are detected among hypertensive patients, but are notnoticed by doctors that in some way can complicate the progression of the hypertension. It was established during the research that for the hypertensive syndrome and its extent of reveal verification, besides standardized Nijmegen questionnairespirometry or diaphragm amplitude can be used. It was established, that among group of hypertensive patients (n=43) with the signs of hyperventilation syndrome, the decrease of lung ventilation figures in accordance to proper magnitude was revealed. Specifically, such figures as vital capacity, forced expiratory volume in 1 sec, inspiratory and expiratory reserve volume, peak expiratory flowwere accurately lower. The reveled changes increased after conducting of the hyperventilation probe among all patients of the main group. At the same moment only among 28,57 % of patients from control group (n=14), without signs of hyperventilation syndrome, according to the survey, the violation of lung ventilation from slight (21,43 %) to moderate (7,14 %) was revealed under the hyperventilation probe. Besides that, among patients from the main group the limitation of diaphragm amplitude was noticed in comparison to results gained in the control group which became stronger under the forced breathing. The revealed changes among hypertensive patients require on time diagnostic and correction.

Abstract:
Chronic hypoxic pulmonary hypertension (HPH) is associated with large, conduit pulmonary arterial (PA) remodeling, which is characterized by morphological changes such as accumulation of collagen and elastin and wall thickening1–4. It is estimated that large PA stiffening accounts for over a third of the right ventricular workload increase in pulmonary arterial hypertension5. In this disease state, conduit PA stiffness is a strong predictor of mortality6, 7.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Background: The chronic disease management program (prolanis) was established in Indonesia to help people achieve optimal quality of life with cost-effective and efficient health services. The user targets were national health insurance participants who suffer from chronic disease, including hypertension and diabetes mellitus. This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of prolanis in improving “CERDIK” healthy behavior for hypertensive patients. Subjects and Method: A cross sectional study was carried out at 25 community health centers in Gunungkidul, Yogyakarta, Indonesia, from January to February 2020. A sample of 200 hypertensive patients were selected by stratified random sampling. The dependent variable was healthy behavior. The independent variables were sex, education, family support, peer support, and prolanis. The data were collected by questionnaire and analyzed by a multiple logistic regression run on Stata 13. Results: Healthy behavior in patients with hypertension increased with (b= 1.95; 95% CI= 0.76 to 3.16; p= 0.001), participative in prolanis (b= 3.93; 95% CI= 2.42 to 5.44; p<0.001), strong family support (b= 1.38; 95% CI= 0.09 to 2.67; p= 0.035), strong peer support (b= 0.50; 95% CI= -0.81 to 1.91; p= 0.427), and female (b= 0.89; 95% CI= -0.35 to 2.13; p=0.160).

Abstract:
Review question / Objective: Hypertension is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease, which remains the leading cause of mortality worldwide. Urban environment as an possible cause of hypertension has received great attention. We aimed to systematically review the associations between greenspace and blood pressure (BP) levels/hypertension and use a meta-analysis to quantify the effects of greenspace on BP levels/hypertension. Condition being studied: Many epidemiological studies have assessed associations of greenspace with blood pressure levels and/or the prevalence of hypertension, whereas the results was inconsistent with some studies showing positive association but the others reporting null or negative associations. Systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted to synthesize data quantitatively across studies based on the primary outcome.
