“Masked Hypertension and Masked Uncontrolled Hypertension: Secrets of the Day and of the Night”

"Undiagnosed and untreated masked hypertension and treated but uncontrolled masked hypertension represent two significant high-risk populations of public health concern. Indeed, current evidence strongly supports revision of National and International guidelines that base diagnostic and therapeutic decisions on conventional in-office BP monitoring; these measurements should be supplemented with home and ambulatory blood pressure monitoring in order to address the current worldwide poor control-rate of hypertension."

“Developing and Using a Vital Sign for Physical Activity”

Although cardiovascular and other health risks of physical inactivity are widely recognized, current epidemiologic relationships between physical activity (PA) and disease are attenuated significantly because of measurement error from PA that is self-reported. Improving measures of and identifying population PA using electronic health records can explicate radically PA-disease relationships and facilitate policy aimed at increasing public PA.
