Neck-to-Waist Ratio Identifies Chronic Hypertensive Phenotype and Occlusive Myocardial Infarction in Patients Presenting With Acute Coronary Syndrome

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 30 Jun 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between multiple conventional and novel anthropometric measurements and hypertension in patients presenting to the ED with ACS and whether anthropometric indices differ according to admission BP status and evaluated the relationship between regional adiposity-related anthropometric phenotypes and cardiovascular stress response in ACS presentations. Rather than representing a general population-based study, this study evaluates the association between ACS and elevated admission BP in a population already characterized by a substantial metabolic disease burden.
