In recent years, serum uric acid (SUA) as a determinant of cardiovascular (CV) risk has
gained interest. Epidemiological, experimental and clinical data show that patients with …

Ambulatory blood pressure (BP) is considered as the gold standard of BP measurement
although it has not been shown to be more strongly associated with cardiovascular risk than …

Objective We systematically assessed the evidence regarding the association between
noninvasive 24-h systolic blood pressure and incident cardiovascular events. Methods We …

Although the association between elevated resting heart rate and cardiovascular morbidity
and mortality has been demonstrated in a large number of epidemiologic studies, elevated …

BP readings that are obtained in the dialysis unit are commonly used to make therapeutic
decisions by clinicians and to predict morbidity and mortality by epidemiologists. Dialysis …
