Is plasma semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase activity in type 1 diabetes related to vascular and renal function but not to glycaemia?
In T1DM, SSAO activity correlates with renal dysfunction, but not with glycaemia, and may promote vascular inflammation and be a therapeutic target.
Simultaneous ABPM and ST-segment analysis identifies episodes of silent myocardial ischemia during increases of BP and HR. Hypertensive patients with ischemic heart disease and ST events show higher mean pulse pressure values than are observed in patients without events. A PP of >or= 60 mmHg is linked to an increased risk of silent myocardial ischemias.
