The association between alcohol and hypertension has been predominantly based on office blood pressure (BP) measurements. However, little is known about the effect of use nighttime BP underlying mechanisms. purpose this study was to investigate effects at-risk BP, urinary catecholamines, sleep quality in midlife adults. A total 32 men 30 postmenopausal women, free major clinical diseases nonsmokers (age: 58 ± 4; mean SD), were included. Among all participants, 22 currently taking...
Introduction: At-risk drinking is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) even in young adults. However, this association mainly based on offce blood pressure (BP) measurement. Ambulatory BP monitoring captures diurnal variation and a more sensitive CVD predictor than BP. Therefore, the purpose study to investigate effects at-risk ambulatory healthy adults normal Method: A total 20 men women (21-35 years), non-smokers, were included cross-sectional study. All...
Heavy alcohol drinking habits contribute to the development of hypertension; this is partly due overactivation sympathetic nervous system and increased release catecholamines. Recently, heavy has been linked poor sleep quality, but underlying mechanisms remain unclear. We postulated that long-term frequent use could increase catecholamine levels cause blood pressure dysregulation at night, altogether influencing quality. Therefore, purpose study test following hypothesis compared non-heavy...
Introduction: Age-associated increases in blood pressure are partly due to increased arterial stiffness and wave reflection. How these vascular changes during aging contribute daily fluctuations hypertension remain be elucidated. Therefore, the purpose of this study is compare ambulatory pressure, stiffness, reflection between young healthy adults, mid-life adults without hypertension, with hypertension. Methods: Twenty-five (age: 26 ± 4 yr body mass index [BMI]: 23.9 2.5 kg/m2) 31 57 BMI:...
Introduction: As our population ages, type 2 diabetes has become more prevalent in the United States and one five mid-life adults (50-64 years) have diabetes. Unhealthy heavy alcohol use (that exceeds recommended drinking limits) causes dysfunction of liver pancreas that can impact glucose control thereby increase risks In young adults, we previously found fasting insulin resistance were not associated with use. However, it remains unclear if contributes to development an aged population....
