The brachial and digital blood pressures were estimated by auscultatory techniques in 10 patients with essential hypertension and in a group of 6 subjects with normal blood pressure who were in a state of regulated peripheral vasoconstriction and again when they were in a state of regulated vasodilatation. The brachial to digital systolic and diastolic pressure gradients in both control subjects and hypertensive patients were greater when the individuals were heated than when they were cooled. The brachial to digital diastolic pressure gradient in the hypertensive patients was not significantly different from that in the subjects with normal blood pressure. However, the systolic pressure gradient was greater in the hypertensive patients than in the control group both when the individuals were heated and when they were cooled.

1. Intralymphocytic sodium concentration was measured in 50 patients with essential stable hypertension, 44 patients with labile hypertension and 40 subjects with normal blood pressure. 2. Intralymphocytic sodium concentration in normotensive subjects was significantly lower than in the other two groups. 3. The concentration was significantly correlated with mean blood pressure in the group as a whole and in the groups with stable and with labile hypertension. No correlation was found in normal subjects.

Studies have evaluated that high blood pressure kills nine million people annually Persistent. Psychological factors can be considered as a primary threat to the increase of hypertension. It may lead to cardiovascular disease, stroke and kidney disease. The current work was conducted to analyze the disparity of anxiety, dyslipidemia and oxidative stress in pre-hypertensive and hypertensive subjects. This was a cross-sectional study conducted among 180 subjects. Based on the Joint National Committee 8 Criteria, participants were divided into hypertensive patients (n₌60) and pre-hypertensive patients (n₌63). Fifty-seven healthy subjects with normal blood pressure were served as the control group. Anthropometric measurements and blood pressure were measured using the standard procedure. The biochemical parameters for measuring oxidative stress, blood glucose levels, and lipid profile were estimated. Anxiety level was assessed with the State-trait anxiety inventory (STAI) questionnaire. It is observed that the serum MalonDiAldehyde (MDA) levels (nmol/ml) were significantly higher in pre-hypertensive (3.74±0.33) and hypertensive (4.7±0.38) compared to normotensive subjects (3.05±0.38). The Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) activity (U/ml) was higher in subjects with normal blood pressure (12.67±2.31) than pre-hypertensive (11.16±2.43) and hypertensive subjects (8.98±2.32). The MDA had a significant positive correlation, and SOD had a negative association with waist-hip ratio, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, fasting blood sugar, high-density lipoprotein, and state and trait anxiety. The present study confirmed that pre-hypertensive and hypertensive subjects suffered from more oxidative stress than normotensive subjects.

The current research The results were Get it from the Draw Blood unity in Al-Sadder infirmary Teaching , Al-Najaf, Iraq, And AL HAKEEM General infirmary in AL-Najaf, Iraq, in 10 Dec 2018 – 19 Jan 2019. Age of hypertensive patients from 40 to Age 70 Normal blood pressure 40 to 70 years. The score show, serious increase (p<0.05) in PIIINP compared with control groups in patients with hypertension. For female patients, the findings of the reported substantially increased (p<0.05) for PIIINP relative to male patient groups. The findings showed a substantial increase (p<0.05) in PIIINP in age (60-70) relative to age (50-59) and (40-49) and increased substantially (p<0.05) in PIIINP in age (50-59) relative to age (40-49); The results showed significant differences in BMI between the hypertensive and the normotensive

Aim: To compare the incidence of in-hospital complications between diabetic normotensive and hypertensive diabetic patients presenting with acute myocardial infarction (MI) Methodology: This observational cohort study was conducted at National Institute of Cardiovascular Diseases Karachi from May 2019 to April 2020. We examined 220 diabetics with acute MI were included. 50% of the patients had high blood pressure and the rest had normal blood pressure. After enrollment in the study, selectees were observed for acute myocardial infarction complications in the hospital. Results: Most of the baseline characteristics were similar in both groups of patients. However, the hypertensive patients in the diabetes group had diabetes, high heart rate, and high blood pressure at reporting. The complication rates did not differ statistically between the two groups. The rates of complications occurred between diabetes and normotensive hypertension; Atrial fibrillation (AF) 15.5% vs 12.7% p = 0.194, respectively, ventricular tachycardia (LH) 14.5% vs 13.6%, AV block type-1 8.2% vs 7.3% p = 0.296, type2 AV block 2.7% vs 1.8% p = 0.352, complete heart block 11.8% vs 10% p = 0.313, acute congestive heart failure (CHF) 13.6% VS% 9.1 p = 0.137, left ventricular failure (LVF)19.1% vs 16.4% p = 0.259, cardiogenic shock (CS) 14.5% vs 10.9% p = 0.184, recurrent IM (Re-MI) 14.5% 10.9% p = 0.184 and mortality 14.5% vs 12.7 and% p = 0.326, respectively. Conclusion:It is concluded that diabetic patients with hypertensionhave not elevated risk of complications in the hospital after acute myocardial infarction. Key words: diabetes, hypertension, hospital complications, acute myocardial infarction

Purpose. To study the dynamics of blood pressure (BP) indicators under the influence of exogenously administered melatonin (Melatonin-SZ, Severnaya Zvezda, Russia) with various manifestations of desynchronosis of circadian BP rhythms (arterial hypertension – AH, high normal blood pressure) to determine the scheme of their effective compensation. Material and methods. The study included 101 patients with desynchronosis of circadian rhythms of blood pressure – 52 patients with hypertension, constituting the first and second groups, and 49 individuals with high normal blood pressure, representing the third and fourth groups. Patients of the second and fourth groups received conservative therapy, patients of the first and third groups combined it with melatonin. All patients underwent measurements of office blood pressure, home monitoring of blood pressure (ABPM), electrocardiography, 24-hour blood pressure monitoring (ABPM). Results and discussion. In patients of the first and third groups, compared with the traditional treatment groups, by the end of the observation period, a significantly (p < 0.05) decrease in office systolic blood pressure (SBP) / diastolic blood pressure (DBP) was established: in the first group compared with the second – 1.11 / 1.13 times, in the third group compared to the fourth – 1.43 / 1.58 times; significantly more (p < 0.05) pronounced decrease in SBP / DBP during DMAD – by 1.08 / 1.17 and 1.58 / 1.62 times, respectively, Significantly (p < 0.05) more pronounced decrease in average daily, average daily and average nighttime SBP / DBP during ABPM – by 1.13 / 1.20, 1.11 / 1.20, 1.23 / 1.25 and 1.47 / 1.31, 1.42 / 1.19, 1.54 / 1.41 times, respectively; reliably (p < 0.05) more frequent registration of the dipper rhythm type SBP / DBP – 1.6 / 1.4 and 1.6 / 1.4 times, respectively. In addition, the dynamics of patients in the first and third groups showed a significant (p < 0.05) decrease in the mean daily and mean nighttime SBP / DBP variability (SBP in the first group by 27.3 and 41.3 %, respectively; DBP in the first group by 20.1 and 26.3 %, respectively; SBP in the third group by 13.5 and 25.2 %, respectively; DBP in the third group by 12.2 and 28.2 %, respectively). Conclusions. With various manifestations of desynchronosis of circadian rhythms of blood pressure (AH, high normal blood pressure), the prescription of melatonin (Melatonin-SZ, Severnaya Zvezda, Russia) at a dose of 3 mg per day 30–40 minutes before bedtime for a month against the background of non-drug therapy and antihypertensive drugs led to a significantly more effective decrease in blood pressure at its office measurement, DMAD, ABPM with an improvement in the circadian rhythm of blood pressure and normalization of blood pressure variability.
