Hypertensive disorders in pregnancy (HDP) are a group of conditions-including chronic hypertension, gestational hypertension, preeclampsia with and without end-organ damage, and acute complications, which include HELLP (hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, and low platelets) syndrome and eclampsia-that could lead to severely adverse outcomes for both mother and fetus. The incidence of HDP has increased, affecting one out of seven delivery hospitalizations. Physicians should be aware of HDP for early identification and proper treatment to improve patient outcomes.

Understanding the Importance of the Small Artery Media-Lumen Ratio: Past and Present.
Basic Clin Pharmacol Toxicol
February 2025
Department of Biomedicine, Aarhus University, Aarhus, Denmark.
The media-lumen diameter ratio of small arteries is increased in hypertension, diabetes and obesity. It is likely that both shear stress on the endothelial cells, transmural pressure and smooth muscle cell tone are important for the altered vascular structure. However, the precise interaction and importance of these factors are incompletely understood.

Division of Endocrinology and Metabolism, Department of Medicine, Samsung Medical Center, Sungkyunkwan University School of Medicine, Seoul, Republic of Korea.
Background: There are insufficient studies to determine whether sodium-glucose cotransporter type 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) will help reduce early diabetic cardiomyopathy, especially in patients without documented cardiovascular disease.
Methods: We performed a single center, prospective observation study. A total of 90 patients with type 2 diabetes patients without established heart failure or atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease were enrolled.

Background: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is frequently associated with increased incidence and mortality of pulmonary hypertension (PH). The immune response contributes to pulmonary artery remodeling and OSA-related diseases. The immunologic factors linked to OSA-induced PH are not well understood.

Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, College of Medicine, Qassim University, Buraidah, Saudi Arabia.
Background: Hypertension is an increasing health problem; hence, efforts have been made to promote the disease's early detection and modify prognoses. We aim to evaluate the accuracy of body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), and waist-height ratio (WHtR) in detecting hypertension among adults in Northern Sudan.
Methods: Adults were recruited for a multi-stage sampling survey in Northern Sudan.
Gut microbiota and kidney function in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease participants in Cameroon: a cross-sectional study.
BMC Nephrol
January 2025
Faculty of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences, University of Yaoundé 1, Yaoundé, Cameroon.
Background And Hypothesis: Gut dysbiosis characterized by an imbalance in pathobionts (Enterobacter, Escherichia and Salmonella) and symbionts (Bifidobacterium, Lactobacillus and Prevotella) can occur during chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression. We evaluated the associations between representative symbionts (Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus) and pathobionts (Enterobacteriaceae) with kidney function in persons with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD).
Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 29 ADPKD patients were matched to 15 controls at a 2:1 ratio.
