Chemical Variability and Anti-Inflammatory Activity of Rosmarinus officinalis L. Leaf Essential Oil from Algerian Sahara.

The chemical composition of 71 oil samples from the leaves of Rosmarinus officinalis L., harvested in three provinces: Naâma (Western Algeria), Béchar and Adrar (Algerian Sahara), was investigated by GC-FID, GC/MS and CNMR. In total, 52 compounds were identified accounting for 88.

The chemical profile and seasonal variation of the composition of the phenolic acids in different plant parts of Centaurea sp.

This study investigated the seasonal variation (over seven months) of phenolic acid (PHA) components in different parts of Centaurea sp. The primary objective was to determine the pattern of variation, while the secondary objective was to identify which month or growth stage provides a greater total PHA content or percentage of bioactive components. Different patterns of seasonal variations were highlighted for the different PHA components and their classes (hydroxybenzoic and -cinnamic acids) in different parts of the plant.

Ethnobotanical and ethnomedicinal analysis of wild medicinal plants traditionally used in Naâma, southwest Algeria.

Algerian people largely rely on traditional medicine practices as part of a community's identity. This first ethnobotanical study aimed to quantify and document the wild medicinal plant taxa from four family and the related traditional knowledge in Naâma province, Algeria. The survey was carried out between 2018 and 2020.

Combined effect of obesity and metabolic profile on glomerular dysfunction in hypertensive subjects.

Aim: The aim of this study is to explore the individual and combined effects of obesity and metabolic profile on the impairment of glomerular function among hypertensive subjects.

Methods: This is a cross-sectional study enrolling 499 hypertensive subjects. Based on body mass index values and metabolic profile, they were assigned to one of four metabolic phenotype groups: MHNO: metabolically healthy non-obese, MHO: metabolically healthy but obese, MUHNO: metabolically unhealthy but non-obese, and MUHO: metabolically unhealthy and obese.

Economic burden of thromboembolic and hemorrhagic complications in non-valvular atrial fibrillation in Algeria (the ELRAGFA study).

Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia, with substantial public health and economic impact on healthcare systems due to the prevention and management of thromboembolic and hemorrhagic complications. In Algeria, stroke is a leading cause of death, representing 15.6% of all deaths in 2012.

Prevalence of diabetes and dyslipidemia in hypertensive patients in the area of Blida (Algeria).

Purpose: Diabetes mellitus (DM) and lipid disorders (LD) in hypertensive patients are associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular complications requiring follow-up and more aggressive therapeutic strategies. The main objective of this study was to describe the prevalence of DM and LD in adult hypertensive patients followed in specialized consultation of hypertension in the region of Blida (North Algeria) during the period from January 2013 to June 2017.

Materials And Methods: We included 3268 hypertensive patients (1453 men and 1815 women), mean age of 58.

Effect of vitamin D on the variability of blood pressure in premenopausal and menopausal hypertensive women in the area of Blida (Algeria).

Objective: To evaluate the effect of 25 (OH) vitamin D supplementation on blood pressure (BP) variability in hypertensive women in the pre-menopausal and post-menopausal periods.

Materials And Methods: 881 hypertensive women prospectively followed for an interventional study between January 2016 and September 2017, in specialized consultation at the department of internal medicine at the Blida University Hospital (Algeria). Four hundred and thiry nine premenopausal women (group I) and 442 menopausal women (group II).

Differences in prevalence, treatment and control rates of hypertension between male and female in the area of Blida (Algeria).

Purpose: To compare differences in prevalence rates, treatment and control of hypertension (AHT) between males and females in general medicine consultation in the area of Blida (Algeria).

Methods: We included 3622 patients in the study (42% males and 58% females), with a mean age of 48.14±10.

[The characteristics of arterial hypertension in postmenopausal women in the area of Blida (Algeria)].

Objective: Assess the prevalence, the degree of control, and the comorbidities of hypertension in postmenopausal women.

Designs And Methods: This is a cohort descriptive and prospective study conducted in 2years in a population with hypertension treated for arterial hypertension in specialized university hospital in Blida, which included one thousand seven hundred and twenty-one postmenopausal women with amenorrhea fore more than 12 consecutive months. All anthropometric data were recorded.

[No reflow: What are the predictors?].

Introduction: During the past 20 years, significant progress has been made in the recanalization of ACS with ST elevation. It is now accepted that the reopening of the large coronary vessels in the acute phase of infarction by thrombolysis or angioplasty is necessary but not sufficient, because in 20-50% of cases, the coronary recanalization is an illusion of reperfusion. This phenomenon is called "no reflow".

[The metabolic syndrome in hypertensive black population of South Algeria].

Introduction: The metabolic syndrome is a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. It exposes to two main complications: cardiovascular diseases and type II diabetes. This risk is higher among women.

[Cardiovascular morbimortality after a follow-up of six years in black hypertensive in South Algeria].

Introduction: Arterial hypertension is a major public health problem not only internationally, but also in our country, and it is the major risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. In south Algeria, the black population is nearly half the population of the oases of the Algerian Sahara.

The Objectives Of The Study: The objectives of the study are to analyze the long-term fate of the black hypertensive subjects in Algerian oases in southern Algeria, in terms of morbidity and mortality, comparing the morphometric profile and cardiovascular complications with the white population of the same oases.

[Prevalence of hypertension in El-Menia oasis, Algeria, and metabolic characteristics in population].

Introduction: El-Menia is an oasis located in the middle of Algerian Sahara. The drinking water in this oasis has low sodium content. The objectives of this study were to estimate the prevalence of hypertension, to describe the metabolic characteristics of population study and to assess the factors associated with blood pressure levels.

Prevalence and determinants of hypertension in the Algerian Sahara.

Background: In-Salah is a city-oasis located in the middle of the Algerian Sahara, a desert area whose drinking water has a high sodium content. No cardiovascular epidemiological studies have ever been conducted in this region.

Methods: A randomized sample of 635 men and 711 women, aged 40-99 years, was studied.
