How to remove the water filter on the front of the refrigerator compartment using the âslide outâ method â Open the filter compartment on the front of the refrigerator and remove the filter. Discard the old filter. Next, slide the new filter into the compartment and back into place.
If you have a diastolic number â the bottom number of a blood pressure measurement â less than 90 millimeters of mercury (mm Hg) and a systolic number â the top number of a blood pressure measurement â greater than 140 mm Hg, you have a common type of high blood pressure called isolated systolic hypertension.
Isolated systolic hypertension can be caused by underlying conditions such as artery stiffness, heart valve problems or an overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidism). For years, doctors focused primarily on diastolic blood pressure. The theory was that the body could tolerate occasional increases in systolic blood pressure, but consistently high diastolic pressure could lead to health problems. However, doctors now know that high systolic pressure is as important as high diastolic pressure â and even more important in people older than age 50. The recommended goal for systolic pressure for younger people is less than 140 mm Hg.
