Photoplethysmographic Measurements of Pulse Wave Velocity (PWV) and Blood Pressure (BP)
Theoretically, there is a correlation between the PWV and the value of the BP, mediated by the distensibility of the segment of artery where the measurements take place.

Hypertension
Endothelin Receptor Function and Acute Stress
Our bodies respond differently to stress. Animal studies by the investigators have found that endothelin-1 plays a role in regulating blood pressure in response to stress.

Prehypertension, Gout
Study of Febuxostat Effect on Blood Pressure in Patients With High Normal Blood Pressure
High normal blood pressure, also called prehypertension, is a significant problem. High uric acid in the blood, the same thing that causes gout, may cause higher blood pressures.

- Prehypertension, Gout, Pulse Wave Velocity, Hypertension
- Trial name
- NCT01472692
- Testing
- Febuxostat
- Where
- United States
- Volunteers
- 47 people, healthy volunteers welcome
