Analysis of influencing factors of exercise systolic blood pressure response in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease aged 40-60 years.
This study investigated the influencing factors of exercise systolic blood pressure response (ESBPR) by cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPX) in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in people aged 40-60 years. ⋯ Our findings indicate that ESBPR is associated with an increased risk of NAFLD in individuals aged 40-60 years. Furthermore, in NAFLD subjects, VE/VCO2 and VO2/WR were found to be correlated with a decreased risk of ESBPR, whereas resting SBP was linked to an elevated risk of ESBPR. This will provide a research basis for the NAFLD subjects who have ESBPR at risk of adverse events during exercise.

Skin ecchymosis in migraine patients: a retrospective and exploratory study.
Migraine is a recurrent headache disorder characterized by moderate to severe, throbbing pain, typically unilateral. It can be classified as migraine with or without aura, depending on the presence or absence of visual or sensory disturbances known as auras, respectively. ⋯ Intermittent skin ecchymosis may be a differentiating factor between migraine and tension-type headache and a specific marker of migraine to be considered as a criterion for its diagnosis.
