This article summarizes and discuss recent findings on: 1) A high dietary magnesium intake was associated with a lower prevalence of hypertension; 2) An inverse relationship between dietary magnesium with diabetes hyperlipidemia; 3) Monitoring and management of magnesium was important.
We demonstrated that serum irisin levels were negatively associated with blood pressure in dialysis patients, which may provide a new target for antihypertensive treatment.
Methods: Spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and Wistar-Kyoto rats (WKY) were subjected to unilateral adrenal ablation with injection of ethanol or a sham procedure. Blood pressure was monitored for 24 weeks. Results: Adrenal ablation significantly lowered systolic and diastolic blood pressure of SHR but not WKY from 4 to 24 weeks after the procedure. Conclusion: Unilateral debulking of the adrenal gland using ethanol ablation is a promising therapeutic strategy for treating hypertension.
Daily self-reported behavioural efficacy records (SER) defined as the number of patient’s app inputs of recall of day-by-day activity of behaviours at the end of the day, is partially affected by self-efficacy and affinity of app, resulting in the effectiveness of digital therapeutics.
Esaxerenone effectively lowers BP, UACR, and serum levels of NT-proBNP independent of dietary salt intake in mild PA patients.

Even with the glomerular hyperfiltration phenomenon, baseline eGFR in patients with primary aldosteronism is associated with subsequent cardiorenal outcomes. The results also firstly point to the validity of the 2021 race-free CKD-EPI eGFR equation in healthcare and clinical decision-making.
