Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Background: The relation between primary hypertension (PH), target organ damage (TOD) and oxidative stress (SOX) is not known. Methods: We assessed SOX in 86 children with PH before and after 12 months of standard non-pharmacological and pharmacological therapy based on renin-angiotensin system blockade. Results: Patients with left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) and with carotid intima-media thickness (cIMT) >2SDS had higher thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) concentrations in comparison to patients without LVH or with normal cIMT. Patients with metabolic syndrome (MS) had lower activity of gluthatione peroxidase, higher asymmetric dimethyloarginine (ADMA) and oxidized LDL cholesterol (oxyLDL) in comparison to patients without MS. TBARS correlated with left ventricular concentric hypertrophy, cIMT, albuminuria and SBP/24 h. ADMA and oxyLDL correlated with CRP and TG/HDL ratio. After 1 year of antihypertensive treatment blood pressure, TOD and prevalence of MS decreased. TBARS decreased and glutathione concentrations increased. The decrease of TBARS concentration correlated with the decrease of body mass index (BMI). Decrease of oxyLDL and ADMA correlated with increased insulin sensitivity, however markers of SOX did not correlate with BP decrease. Conclusion: SOX in children with PH correlates with TOD, metabolic abnormalities, changes in fat amount and improvement of insulin sensitivity, but not with BP decrease. © IPNA 2012.
