Cardiologists, who understand the prognostic risks of depression in CVD and feel confident to identify and treat depression, were more likely to screen, refer and/or treat patients for depression. Conclusions: Australian cardiologists rarely use validated depression screening measures. Several brief instruments are available for use and can be easily integrated into routine patient care without taking additional consultation time. © 2019]]> Wed 25 Nov 2020 10:04:13 AEDT ]]> Confirming a beneficial effect of the six-minute walk test on exercise confidence in patients with heart failure http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:14253 Wed 07 Apr 2021 14:02:20 AEST ]]> Cardiac response to exercise in normal ageing : What can we learn from masters athletes? http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:13501 Wed 07 Apr 2021 14:01:38 AEST ]]> Ambulatory blood pressure may be designed as the primary efficacy outcome in clinical trials on renal denervation http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:13407 Wed 07 Apr 2021 14:01:33 AEST ]]> It may be not suitable to perform renal denervation in renal arteries with significant stenosis http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:13404 Wed 07 Apr 2021 14:01:33 AEST ]]> Limitations in current clinical trials on renal denervation http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:13405 Wed 07 Apr 2021 14:01:33 AEST ]]> Dysregulation of c-kit expression parallels the development of spontaneous genetic cardiac hypertrophy http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:12775 Wed 07 Apr 2021 14:00:59 AEST ]]> Cardiovascular risk and androgenic anabolic steroids http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:11736 Wed 07 Apr 2021 13:57:01 AEST ]]> Coronary artery disease : Why we should consider the Y chromosome http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:10738 Wed 07 Apr 2021 13:56:05 AEST ]]> Abnormal microRNA expression in cardiac hypertrophy and the regulation of the Endog gene http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:4790 1.1) were differentially expressed between HHR and NHR (n=16). We then performed an in silico analysis to predict the miRNAs that are able to bind to the 3′ untranslated region of Endog mRNA, and therefore could regulate Endog levels. We discovered that the miRNAs let-7b, miR-338 and miR-347 are predicted to bind to Endog mRNA. Functional studies are being undertaken to determine whether these miRNAs can regulate Endog mRNA levels in vitro and their role in the pathological processes leading to cardiac hypertrophy. These miRNAs could be a new target for the prevention and treatment of cardiac hypertrophy in humans]]> Wed 07 Apr 2021 13:44:20 AEST ]]> May measurement month 2019 the global blood pressure screening campaign of the International Society of Hypertension http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:14703 = 18 years) recruited through opportunistic sampling were screened at sites in 92 countries during May 2019. Ideally, 3 blood pressure readings were measured for each participant, and data on lifestyle factors and comorbidities were collected. Hypertension was defined as a systolic blood pressure >= 140 mm Hg, or a diastolic blood pressure >= 90 mm Hg (mean of the second and third readings) or taking antihypertensive medication. When necessary, multiple imputation was used to estimate participants' mean blood pressure. Mixed-effects models were used to evaluate associations between blood pressure and participant characteristics. Of 1 508 130 screenees 482 273 (32.0%) had never had a blood pressure measurement before and 513 337 (34.0%) had hypertension, of whom 58.7% were aware, and 54.7% were on antihypertensive medication. Of those on medication, 57.8% were controlled to <140/90 mm Hg, and 28.9% to <130/80 mm Hg. Of all those with hypertension, 31.7% were controlled to <140/90 mm Hg, and 350 825 (23.3%) participants had untreated or inadequately treated hypertension. Of those taking antihypertensive medication, half were taking only a single drug, and 25% reported using aspirin inappropriately. This survey is the largest ever synchronized and standardized contemporary compilation of global blood pressure data. This campaign is needed as a temporary substitute for systematic blood pressure screening in many countries worldwide.]]> Tue 19 Oct 2021 16:23:32 AEDT ]]> DNA copy number variations – Do these big mutations have a big effect on cardiovascular risk? http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:14247 Thu 20 May 2021 10:20:30 AEST ]]> Prevalence and risk factors of ischaemic stroke in the young : a regional Australian perspective http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:14669 Thu 02 Dec 2021 16:14:24 AEDT ]]> 2020 International Society of Hypertension global hypertension practice guidelines http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:15713 Fri 03 Nov 2023 12:12:48 AEDT ]]>
