Cardiac stress and cardiovascular risk markers : the SABPA study
(North-West University (South-Africa), 2019)Motivation - Pathological cardiac remodelling is a manifestation of end-organ damage and can be characterised by myocyte death and myocyte hypertrophy. An increased hemodynamic burden may follow the cardiac remodelling ... -
Longitudinal changes of cardiac troponin and inflammation reflect progressive myocyte stretch and likelihood for hypertension in a Black male cohort: the SABPA study
(Springer, 2019)Inflammation was cross-sectionally associated with subclinical wall remodeling and hypertension. Whether longitudinal changes (∆) in inflammation, myocyte injury (troponin T), and stretch (N-terminal-pro-B-type natriuretic ... -
Neural control, cardiac stress and retinal vascular dynamics: the SABPA study
(North-West University (South-Africa), 2019)Motivation: Structural and functional similarities exist between the retinal, cerebral and the coronary vasculature. Specifically, the retinal and cerebral vasculature show striking anatomical, functional and autoregulatory ... -
Relation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system with potential cardiac injury and remodelling: the SABPA study
(Taylor & Francis, 2020)Purpose: The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) plays an important role in maintaining hemodynamic homeostasis. Ethnic disparities exist regarding RAAS activity due to sympathetic activity and sodium-water retention, ...
