Objective: To evaluate the accuracy of the YuWell YE900 oscillometric upper-arm professional office blood pressure monitor in adults and children according to the Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation/European Society of Hypertension/International Organization for Standardization (AAMI/ESH/ISO) Universal Standard (ISO 81060-2:2018).
Methods: Subjects were recruited to fulfill the age, sex, blood pressure and cuff distribution criteria of the AAMI/ESH/ISO Universal Standard in adults and children (aged 3-12 years) using the same arm sequential blood pressure measurement method. Three cuffs of the test device were used for arm circumference 18-22 cm (small), 22-32 cm (medium) and 32-42 cm (large).
Results: Ninety-two subjects were recruited, and 85 (50 adults and 35 children) were analyzed. For validation criterion 1, the mean ± SD of the differences between the test device and reference blood pressure readings was 1.7 ± 6.62/3.1 ± 5.76 mmHg (systolic/diastolic). For validation criterion 2, the SD of the averaged blood pressure differences between the test device and reference blood pressure per subject was 5.25/5.13 mmHg (systolic/diastolic).
Conclusion: The YuWell YE900 professional electronic blood pressure monitor has passed the requirements of the AAMI/ESH/ISO Universal Standard (ISO 81060-2:2018) in adults and children and can be recommended for clinical use.

Unlabelled: Hypertension disproportionately affects African Americans, and adequate blood pressure (BP) control remains a challenge. Self-management of hypertension is critical for improving BP control and reducing hypertension-related morbidities.
Objectives: The objective of this study is to describe hypertension self-management (HTN-SM) behaviors and the relationship between HTN-SM and self-reported BP in middle- to older-aged African American adults.

Gut dysbiosis serves as an underlying risk factor for the development of hypertension. The resolution of this dysbiosis has emerged as a promising strategy in improving hypertension. Food-derived bioactive protein peptides have become increasingly more attractive in ameliorating hypertension, primarily due to their anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant activities.

During the transition from fresh waters to terrestrial habitats, significant adaptive changes occurred in kidney function of vertebrates to cope with varying osmotic challenges. We investigated the mechanisms driving water conservation in the mammalian nephron, focusing on the relative contributions of active ion transport and Starling forces. We constructed a thermodynamic model to estimate the entropy generation associated with different processes within the nephron, and analyzed their relative importance in urine formation.

Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) frequently coexists with cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) is common in the aging population, yet the underlying mechanisms are not yet fully understood. Both long-term blood pressure variability (BPV) and plasma neurofilament light (PNFL) were identified as potential biomarkers for AD and CSVD. This study aims to understand the mechanisms of comorbidity between AD and CSVD by investigating the associations among BPV, PNFL, and comorbidity.
