Introduction: To investigate the relationship of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels with left ventricular geometry (LVG) and function in patients with primary hypertension (PH).
Methods: A total of 222 PH patients and 25 healthy control (HC)s were enrolled in this study. All subjects underwent echocardiography and blood biochemical examination.
Objectives: To investigate relationships between hypersensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), tumor necrosis factor -α (TNF-α), interleukin-17A (IL-17A), and interferon -γ (IFN-γ), with left ventricular geometry (LVG) and function in patients with primary hypertension (PHT).
Methods: A total of 396 PHT patients were assigned into four groups: Normal Geometry (NG), Concentric Remodeling (CR), Eccentric Hypertrophy (EH), and Concentric Hypertrophy (CH). The correlation between hs-CRP, TNF-α, IL-17A, IFN-γ, and clinical, biochemical parameters were analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis and Logistic regression.
Objective: To assess the relationship of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels with left ventricular geometry (LVG) and function in patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) and pre-hypertension.
Methods: A total of 458 patients were assigned into four groups: normal geometry (NG), concentric remodeling (CR), eccentric hypertrophy (EH), and concentric hypertrophy (CH). Pearson correlation and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to determine the correlation between IL-6, CRP, and clinical, polysomnographic, and biochemical parameters with LVG and function.
