Background: Uncontrolled blood pressure rates are high in patients with non-dialysis chronic kidney disease, worsening the disease progression and leading to end-stage renal disease. However, studies on uncontrolled blood pressure in patients with non-dialysis chronic kidney disease and its associated factors in Vietnam are scarce. This study aimed at identifying uncontrolled blood pressure rates and risk factors associated with uncontrolled blood pressure among Vietnamese patients with non-dialysis chronic kidney disease.

Methods: A cross-sectional, correlational study design was employed among 182 participants coming to follow up at two tertiary hospitals in Vietnam. The participants were selected by a convenience sampling technique. Data were collected using Participant Demographic Information Form, Clinical Characteristics Form, Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, Charlson Comorbidity Index, and an automated office oscillometric upper arm device. Descriptive statistics, Chi-square, Fisher's Exact Test, and binary logistic regression were used to analyze the data.

Results: 63.2% of the participants could not control their BP less than 130/80 mmHg. Poor sleep quality ( 2.076, 95% 1.059-4.073, =.034) and severe comorbidities ( 2.926, 95% 1.248-6.858, =.013) were risk factors associated with uncontrolled blood pressure among Vietnamese patients with non-dialysis chronic kidney disease. Interestingly, the study found a high rate of awareness toward the importance of blood pressure control but a low rate of known blood pressure targets.

Conclusion: Uncontrolled blood pressure rates among Vietnamese patients with non-dialysis chronic kidney disease were high. Sleep quality and comorbidity severity were significantly associated with uncontrolled blood pressure in this population. To achieve blood pressure targets, nurses and other healthcare providers should pay more attention to the patients with poor sleep quality and severe comorbidities.

Background: Alzheimer's Disease (AD) poses a substantial global health burden, necessitating innovative therapeutic strategies. This study investigates the neuroprotective potential of a chrysin-loaded Nanostructured Lipid Carrier (NLC) drug delivery system in AD management. Employing the high-pressure homogenization method, chrysin-loaded NLCs were meticulously formulated to optimize drug delivery efficiency.

Background: Blood pressure (BP) management is an accessible therapeutic target for dementia prevention. BP variability (BPV) is a newer aspect of BP control recently associated with cognitive decline, dementia and Alzheimer's disease (AD), independent of traditionally targeted mean BP levels. Most of this work has relied on largely non-Hispanic White study samples in observational cohorts.

Background: The effect of high consumption of psychoactive substances of codeine (CDE), tramadol (TMD), and Cannabis sativa (CNB) as concoction has been associated with altered brain cognitive and neurochemical functions. However, the understanding of the complex mechanism behind the intake of Cannabis sativa co-administration with tramadol and codeine on both cardiac and brain function, neurotransmitters, purinergic, and antioxidant enzymes activities in the brain and heart of rats remains unreported.

Background: Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) and hypertension are the two most common risk factors of intracranial hemorrhage leading to cognitive impairment, but less is known about how the two relate. A better understanding of the association between these risk factors is a key step towards developing new strategies to manage hypertension and attenuate CAA progression.

Method: This study analyzed data from 2,510 participants in the National Alzheimer's Coordinating Center (NACC) dataset who had CAA and longitudinal blood pressure (BP) measurements before death.

Objective: Elevated systolic blood pressure and increased pulse pressure are closely associated with renal damage; however, the exact mechanism remains unclear. Therefore, we investigated the effects of increased pulse pressure on tubulointerstitial fibrosis and renal damage in elderly rats with isolated systolic hypertension (ISH). Additionally, the role of renal tubular epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and its upstream signalling pathways were elucidated.
