Objective: Ambulatory venous pressure (AVP) is the drop of pressure observed in the superficial veins of the lower leg during movement. This phenomenon has been linked to the function of the calf muscle pump (CMP) and the competence of venous valves. Nevertheless, the concept of the CMP function remains controversial.

Background And Aims: Malnutrition increases post-operative risks like infections and prolonged stays. Pediatric assessment challenges require using anthropometric measurements and phase angle, which reflects body cell mass and health outcomes. Phase angle varies by maturation stages, making it crucial for pre-surgical evaluations alongside BMI.

Ambulatory blood pressure (ABP) monitoring is a widespread recommendation for the diagnosis and management of hypertension. Dynamic resistance training (DRT) and isometric handgrip training (IHT) have been recommended for hypertension treatment, but their effects on ABP have been poorly studied. Additionally, combined dynamic and isometric handgrip resistance training (CRT) could produce an additive effect that has yet to be tested.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigated the link between elevated systolic blood pressure (SBP) and neurocognitive performance in adolescents, focusing on measures like auscultatory SBP and ambulatory SBP, along with cardiovascular health risk indicators.
- It involved 365 adolescents, averaging 15.5 years old, from various academic medical centers in the U.S., analyzing their cognitive abilities like nonverbal IQ and attention, considering factors like maternal education.
- Results showed that higher SBP corresponded to lower nonverbal IQ and verbal attention scores, indicating that even slight elevations in blood pressure can negatively affect adolescent cognitive functions, suggesting a need for further research on these implications for clinical care.
Ambulatory isolated diastolic hypertension and risk of left ventricular hypertrophy in children with primary and secondary hypertension.

Background: Pediatric blood pressure (BP) assessment and management is increasingly important. Uncontrolled systolic and combined hypertension leads to hypertension-mediated organ damage. The impact of isolated diastolic hypertension is less clearly understood.
