<b><i>Background:</i></b> Orthostatic hypotension (OH) and impaired OH recovery derived from beat-to-beat blood pressure (BP) measurements are associated with detrimental clinical outcome, but the clinical relevance of OH recovery assessed using the widely available sphygmomanometer is still unclear. <b><i>Method:</i></b> 635 geriatric outpatients underwent comprehensive geriatric assessment, including orthostatic BP measurements using a sphygmomanometer, during supine rest and 1 and 3 min after standing up and assessment of physical performance (i.e., the timed up and go test and the Short Physical Performance Battery) and the number of falls in the past year. The association between BP recovery, defined as BP at 3 min minus BP at 1 min after standing up, with physical performance and falls was assessed using regression analyses, adjusting for age and sex, both in the entire cohort and after stratifying for the presence of OH at 1 min after standing up. <b><i>Results:</i></b> BP recovery was not associated with physical performance or number of falls, neither in the entire cohort, nor in subpopulations with or without OH. <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> The clinical relevance of BP recovery between 1 and 3 min after standing up could not be demonstrated. The results suggest that sphygmomanometer measurements have an inadequate time resolution to record the clinically relevant dynamics of orthostatic BP recovery.

Background: We have previously reported that urinary angiotensinogen (AGT) excretion did not have a circadian rhythm and could be a novel biomarker for the activity of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) in kidney. However, there have been few reports investigating the circadian rhythm of plasma AGT in human body. Thus, this study was performed to examine the circadian rhythm in plasma AGT in human. METHODS: Evaluating RAS in clinical practice is generally performed in a recumbent position after a 30-minute stabilization period. However, to determine the necessity of recumbent position, we first compared plasma AGT concentrations measured right after waking up and after a 5-minute sitting rest. Next, we examined the circadian rhythm of plasma AGT in 43 healthy volunteers who had shown no abnormalities in the medical examinations in 2011. Plasma AGT was measured at three time points (9 a.m., 1 p.m., and 4 p.m.) in the above volunteers. Blood was collected by a micro hematocrit capillary tube with heparin, frozen for storage after centrifugation, and thawed for the measurement of plasma AGT using an ELISA kit. Results: There was no significant difference between the plasma AGT values of the two measuring methods (P = 0.1202, n = 5). Based on the result, we performed blood sampling after a 5-minute sitting rest in the volunteers consisting of 17 men and 26 women. Average blood pressure was 116.3/75.1 mmHg at 9 a.m., 116.3/71.9 mmHg at 1 p.m., and 115.5/70.1 mmHg at 4 p.m.; average pulse rate was 78.7/min at 9 a.m., 77.1/min at 1 p.m., and 73.3/min at 4 p.m. Blood pressure and pulse rate did not change throughout the day. Average plasma AGT was 20.4 ± 6.0 ng/ml at 9 a.m., 20.7 ± 5.0 ng/ml at 1 p.m., and 19.8 ± 6.4 ng/ml at 4 p.m. Plasma AGT did not show a circadian rhythm (P = 0.3803). Conclusion: We found in this study that plasma AGT did not have a circadian rhythm. We also found that plasma AGT was not affected by daily life actions. Thus, future patients may not be required to rest nor wait for certain time points before measuring plasma AGT. We also have to unveil the normal AGT levels and the influence on the levels by diseases. As we think that plasma AGT and ratio of urinary AGT to plasma AGT can be a new surrogate marker of hypertension and kidney diseases, we further need to go into this research area.

Pulpal Anesthesia

Dexmedetomidine hydrochloride (DEX) demonstrates analgesic, sedative, and hypotensive effects. DEX may also enhance the effect of local anesthetics used in the oral cavity, although this has not been well established in combination with lidocaine. We conducted a single-blind crossover study in 8 healthy volunteers to investigate whether DEX enhances the anesthetic effect of lidocaine in the oral cavity. DEX or DEX + lidocaine was injected into the labial gingiva corresponding to the root apex of the maxillary left central incisor and into the buccal gingiva corresponding to the root apex of the mandibular right first molar. Pain threshold, blood pressure, pulse rate, oxygen saturation, and bispectral index were measured 5 minutes after treatment and at 10-minute intervals for 60 minutes. DEX + lidocaine caused pulpal anesthesia in more subjects than lidocaine alone; this difference was significant for both central incisors and first molars up to 40 minutes after treatment. Following DEX + lidocaine treatment, blood pressure and bispectral index were significantly reduced at several time points, and pulse rate significantly reduced at all time points. Neither treatment caused changes in oxygen saturation. In conclusion, administering DEX with lidocaine for dental local anesthesia caused sedation and enhanced local anesthesia compared to lidocaine alone.

   Twenty Iraqi ducks hearts ( 10 male and 10 female ) have been  used for   demonstration  and illustration of heart's valves  and chambers  as well as  anatomical   and morphological site of view to explain what modifications had been take place for ducks heart  to perform  his normal life at the  circumstances  of  high  blood  pressure  and  pulse  rate. The heart  which has distinctly pointed  apex  was  built   in simple  manner located  in a transparent  taught  heart  pericardial  sac. It   was pyramidal in shape  externally  and  has a longitudinal  salcus  passing  to the  right  side, the  anterior of  the   heart  is  divided  into two  unequal  anterior  chamber  similar  to  those of mammalian  hear  .The heart valves are modified  in  order to  minimize  the  fraction  that occur as a result of  high  blood  pressure  and  pulse  rate  of  the  duck  heart , also  the  muscular  trabeculae   replace  the  chordate  tendineae  , which  were  present in the  mammalian    heart  in order to  minimize  the  fraction  resulting  from high  pulse  rate..

AbstractHeart rate variability (HRV) utilizes the electrocardiogram (ECG) and has been widely studied as a non-invasive indicator of cardiac autonomic activity. Pulse rate variability (PRV) utilizes photoplethysmography (PPG) and recently has been used as a surrogate for HRV. Several studies have found that PRV is not entirely valid as an estimation of HRV and that several physiological factors, including the pulse transit time (PTT) and blood pressure (BP) changes, may affect PRV differently than HRV. This study aimed to assess the relationship between PRV and HRV under different BP states: hypotension, normotension, and hypertension. Using the MIMIC III database, 5 min segments of PPG and ECG signals were used to extract PRV and HRV, respectively. Several time-domain, frequency-domain, and nonlinear indices were obtained from these signals. Bland–Altman analysis, correlation analysis, and Friedman rank sum tests were used to compare HRV and PRV in each state, and PRV and HRV indices were compared among BP states using Kruskal–Wallis tests. The findings indicated that there were differences between PRV and HRV, especially in short-term and nonlinear indices, and although PRV and HRV were altered in a similar manner when there was a change in BP, PRV seemed to be more sensitive to these changes.
