to lower blood pressure :: Article Creator Powerful Breathing Exercises To Lower Your Blood Pressure Breathing exercises can temporarily lower your blood pressure and heart rate by activating the vagus nerve. The vagus nerve is part of the parasympathetic nervous system, sending signals to and from the brain, heart, and gut. The parasympathetic nervous system is responsible for rest and relaxation and counteracts the sympathetic nervous system's "fight or flight" response. Several breathing techniques can temporarily lower blood pressure, and some, like inspiratory muscle strength training, may even have longer-lasting effects to help lower blood pressure in people with hypertension. However, breathing techniques should not replace the treatment plan and medication your healthcare provider prescribes.

pulmonary hypertension how is it diagnosed :: Article Creator PH Can Impose Physical Restrictions, But Don't Limit Yourself It's a beautiful day in the country for what appears to be the beginning of autumn. There are acres of trees, mostly green except for a few that have changed to gold. They're casting a shadow over a lake, but on the other side sun is glistening on the water and the land is covered in lush, green grass. It appears to be a wide-open field except for the ruins of an old fence. All that remains is a small gate held up by two standing pillars. Peering longingly through the wrought-iron bars are three clueless sheep. This picture (photographer unknown) of sheep confined by an imaginary fence has been making the rounds on social media. People are sharing it with their personal view of its symbolism. When I look at the picture I think of the pulmonary hypertension (PH) community and how physical restrictions caused by...

parenchymal lung :: Article Creator Drug-Induced Interstitial Lung Disease Linked To Cancer And CV Drugs Cancer and cardiovascular (CV) drugs may be linked to a large proportion of drug-induced interstitial lung disease (ILD) and other diffuse lung disease cases, according to findings of a French study reported in the European Respiratory Journal.

Investigators in France conducted a descriptive and retrospective study to identify the epidemiology of suspected medications and clinical presentations of drug-induced diffuse lung diseases over a 37-year period using the French Pharmacovigilance Database (FPVD). ADRs in the FPVD are coded using the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA) classification. The current analysis included adult cases involving ADRs registered in the FP...

There's nothing wrong with feeling off sometimes, and whether it's down to stress, lack of sleep or a short illness, feeling tired is to be expected. However, if it's all the time and seemingly without a reason, it could be something that requires immediate intervention. Being 'tired all the time' could indicate a serious issue (Getty Stock Images) Professor Julia Newton, a consultant geriatrician, told the British Heart Foundation that fatigue means more than feeling a little groggy after a poor night's sleep.
