Day-by-Day Home Blood Pressure Monitoring as a Biomarker in Diabetes
Home blood pressure (HBP) is an indispensable tool for hypertension management, because both increased mean HBP and day-by-day HBP variability (HBPV)... -
Evaluation of Electrocardiogram Parameters and Heart Rate Variability During Blood Pressure Elevation by Phenylephrine in Cirrhotic Rats
Cirrhotic cardiomyopathy is a myocardial disease that may go undetected in the early stages due to peripheral vasodilatation. The aim of the study...
