Is near basal blood pressure a more accurate predictor of cardiorenal manifestations of hypertension than casual blood pressure?

Measurement of casual and near basal systolic and diastolic blood pressures were correlated with the severity of cardiorenal manifestations of hypertension in 471 patients. There was a significant association of each of the four blood pressure measurements with each other (P All four blood pressure measurements were significantly associated (r >= 0.78, P The level of blood pressure is the important correlate of these manifestations of hypertension. This is equally true whether systolic, diastolic, casual or near basal measurements are used. Near basal blood pressure does not correlate better with the cardiorenal manifestations of hypertension than casual blood pressure, neither does diastolic blood pressure correlate better with these manifestations than systolic blood pressure.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/22749/1/0000304.pd

Clinical disorders affecting mesopic vision

Vision in the mesopic range is affected by a number of inherited and acquired clinical disorders. We review these conditions and summarize the historical background, describing the clinical characteristics alongside the genetic basis and molecular biological mechanisms giving rise to rod and cone dysfunction relevant to twilight vision. The current diagnostic gold standards for each disease are discussed and curative and symptomatic treatment strategies are summarized

Reformulating classical and quantum mechanics in terms of a unified set of consistency conditions

This paper imposes consistency conditions on the path of a particle and shows that they imply Hamilton's principle in classical contexts and Schrödinger's equation in quantum mechanical contexts. Thus this paper provides a common, intuitive foundation for classical and quantum mechanics. It also provides a very new perspective on quantum mechanics.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/44577/1/10773_2005_Article_BF02114663.pd
