Association of microscopic hematuria with long-term mortality in patients with hypertensive crisis

Mi-Yeon Yu et al.

Summary: Microscopic hematuria is associated with increased long-term mortality risk in patients with hypertensive crisis. It can be a useful prognostic marker for early detection of patients at high risk of death.

Clinical implications of cardiac troponin-I in patients with hypertensive crisis visiting the emergency department

Woohyeun Kim et al.

Summary: Cardiac troponin-I (cTnI) levels can predict all-cause mortality in patients with hypertensive crisis. Even detectable but normal range cTnI levels have a prognostic impact comparable to elevated cTnI levels.

Impact of the estimated glomerular filtration rate on long-term mortality in patients with hypertensive crisis visiting the emergency department

Byung Sik Kim et al.

Summary: This study aimed to identify the impact of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) on all-cause mortality in patients with hypertensive crisis. The results showed a significant association between renal function impairment and all-cause mortality in patients with hypertensive crisis. Specifically, patients with eGFR ranging from 30-59 mL/min/1.73 m(2) and <30 mL/min/1.73 m(2) had a significantly higher 3-year all-cause mortality risk. Therefore, intensive treatment and follow-up strategies are needed for hypertensive crisis patients with decreased eGFR visiting the emergency department.

Impact of underweight on 3-year all-cause mortality in patients with acute severe hypertension: a retrospective cohort study

Hyun-Jin Kim et al.

Summary: This study investigated the association between BMI and long-term clinical outcomes in patients with acute severe hypertension. The results showed a reverse J-shaped association between BMI and 3-year all-cause mortality, with underweight patients having the highest mortality rate and obesity associated with reduced mortality. Underweight contributes to worsening long-term clinical outcomes in patients with acute severe hypertension.

Association of Dipstick Proteinuria with Long-Term Mortality among Patients with Hypertensive Crisis in the Emergency Department

Byung Sik Kim et al.

Summary: Proteinuria in hypertensive crisis is associated with all-cause mortality, with even trace proteinuria increasing the risk of mortality. Dipstick urine test could be a simple and useful method for assessing mortality risk in these patients.

Association of anaemia with long-term mortality among patients with hypertensive crisis in the emergency department

Wook-Dong Kim et al.

Summary: Anemia is independently associated with 3-year all-cause mortality in patients with hypertensive crisis. Comprehensive therapeutic approach through more in-depth examination and close follow-up are required for patients with hypertensive crisis with anemia.

Plasma D-dimer levels are correlated with disease severity among hypertensive patients: A comparative cross-sectional study

Yanli Long et al.

Summary: The study found that hypertensive patients have higher levels of D-dimer, which increase significantly with the severity of hypertension. This suggests that hypercoagulability of fibrin plays a role in the occurrence of thromboembolic complications in hypertensive patients.

Clinical characteristics and prognosis of patients with very severe acute hypertension visiting the emergency department

Hyun-Jin Kim et al.

Summary: This study investigated the clinical characteristics, practice patterns, and long-term prognoses of patients presenting to the emergency department with very severe acute hypertension. The results showed that patients with very severe acute hypertension had poor long-term clinical prognoses, and hypertension-mediated organ damage significantly increased the mortality rate.

Clinical characteristics, practice patterns, and outcomes of patients with acute severe hypertension visiting the emergency department

Byung Sik Kim et al.

Summary: Data from a cross-sectional study at a tertiary referral center revealed that 5.9% of patients visiting the emergency department had acute severe hypertension, with 24.5% of them experiencing acute hypertension-mediated organ damage (HMOD). The mortality rates for these patients were 4.8% at 3 months, 8.8% at 1 year, and 13.9% at 3 years, with significantly higher mortality rates in patients with HMOD compared to those without. This study highlights the importance of evaluating and managing HMOD in patients with acute severe hypertension to improve outcomes and emphasizes the need for disease-specific guidelines in this area.

Clinical Characteristics and Predictors of All-Cause Mortality in Patients with Hypertensive Urgency at an Emergency Department

Jeong-Hun Shin et al.

Summary: This study investigated the characteristics and predictors of all-cause mortality in Korean emergency patients with hypertensive urgency, finding a 3-year all-cause mortality rate of 12.1% along with higher rates of emergency department revisits and readmission among non-survivors. Age over 60, male sex, history of chronic kidney disease, and proteinuria were identified as independent predictors of 3-year all-cause mortality.
