“…It would be understandable to attribute these effects to IHG because daily activity estimated by pedometer was mostly light intensity and did not change significantly between the observation and intervention periods. A previous study associated hypertension with higher BNP and heart failure 8,9 . However, BNP increased in our study despite the small BP reduction.…”

Hypertension guidelines recommend isometric handgrip exercise (IHG) as a nonpharmacological treatment. The aim of this study was to investigate whether IHG is safe for hypertensive patients. The participants were mostly middle-aged to elderly patients with hypertension. Participants wore a pedometer for 4 weeks and were then divided into two groups: Those who had taken at least 7000 steps per day were placed in an IHG-only group (n = 11), and those who took fewer steps were placed in an IHG + walking group (n = 4). Both groups then performed IHG for 12 weeks. No significant blood pressure reduction occurred from before to after intervention in either group. In the IHG-only group, brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) was significantly higher and left atrial (LA) volume (24.6 ± 9.1 to 36.4 ± 17.9 mL, P = .007) was significantly larger after intervention than before. Long-term IHG may induce both LA enlargement and increased BNP in hypertensive patients.

“…It is estimated that there would be more than 500 million (about 60%) hypertensive patients around the world by the year 2025. Hypertension is considered to be a major modifiable risk factor for CVDs, resulting in more deaths than any other risk factor in the Asian regions [4]. The incidence of hypertension is associated with salt intake, stress level, and obesity [5,6], and it is higher in lowand middle-income countries where patients have less awareness regarding the importance of hypertension control [6,7].…”

An application of the theory of planned behavior to self-care in patients with hypertension

Background: Self-care behaviors and positive changes in lifestyle are essential for successful hypertension control. We used a behavioral model based on the theory of planned behavior to assess which factors influence self-care behaviors for controlling hypertension. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, five hundred patients with at leastaone-year history of diagnosed hypertension participated in this study. The data collection tool was designed based on the theory of planned behavior. Structural equation modeling was used to estimate the main parameters. Results: For self-care behaviors, ninety-six (19.2%) and forty-five (9.1%) participants had good knowledge and acceptable behavior(≥8 out of 10 points). Having perceived behavioral control regarding quitting smoking and alcohol intake was associated with the patient's intention and behavior [b:1.283 ± .095 and b:1.59 ± .014 (p < .001)]. Having perceived behavioral control over the other self-care behaviors had a positive effect on the intention in female patients [b: .885 ± .442 (p = .045)]. Subjective norms had a positive effect on behavioral intention in younger patients [b:4.52 ± 2.24 (P = .04)]. Conclusions: Group-specific behavioral barriers are important when improving self-care behaviors in patients with hypertension. Perceived control over self-care behaviors is more important in vulnerable patients, such as the elderly and women.

“…The HOPE Asia Network has published a number of papers on important Asia‐specific topics in hypertension . This Asia‐specific issue of the Journal of Clinical Hypertension provides an important resource including original research and review articles on the management of hypertension from a variety of Asian viewpoints, including topics such as central BP, environmental factors, comorbidities such as diabetes, atrial fibrillation, heart failure, and dementia, recent Asian guidelines and so forth . This issue also includes reports from twelve countries/regions in Asia to help define and highlight the current status of hypertension, its management, and their initiatives.…”

“…The “perfect 24‐hour BP control” strategy taking Asian characteristics into account is essential for achievement of the “zero” cardiovascular event goal . Considerable work has already been done on the journey to achieving this goal . Practically, a staged approach to the 24‐hour management of hypertension should be considered, first targeting morning hypertension, then nocturnal hypertension, followed by daytime hypertension .…”

The impact of hypertension-related cardiovascular disease and target organ damage, and therefore the benefits of blood pressure (BP) control, is greater in Asian than in Western countries. Asia-specific features of hypertension and its effective management are important and active areas of research. The Hypertension Cardiovascular Outcome Prevention and Evidence in Asia (HOPE Asia) Network was formed in 2016and is now a member of the World Hypertension League. The main goal of the HOPE Asia Network is to improve the management of hypertension and organ protection toward achieving "zero" cardiovascular events in Asia. Considerable work has already been done on the journey to achieving this goal. We have shown that BP control status in Asia differs between countries, and even between regions within the same country. Several expert panel consensus recommendations and clinical guidance papers are available to support the use of home and ambulatory BP monitoring in the region. In addition, the AsiaBP@Home study prospectively investigated home BP control status across 15 specialist centers using the same validated device and measurement schedule. We have also proposed the concept of systemic hemodynamic atherothrombotic syndrome (SHATS), a vicious cycle of BP variability and vascular disease on cardiovascular events and organ damage, and suggested a SHATS score for risk stratification for clinical practice. This special issue of the journal collates Asia-specific resources and data, contributing to advances in hypertension management and cardiovascular disease prevention in the region.
