Improved identification of secondary hypertension: use of a systematic protocol
(AME Publishing Company, 2018-08)
Background: The accurate identification and diagnosis of secondary hypertension is critical, especially while atherosclerotic cardiovascular heart disease continues to be the leading cause of death in the industrialized ...
Vascular remodeling in experimental hypertension
(HINDAWI publishing Corporation, 2005-11-22)
The basic hemodynamic abnormality in hypertension is an increased peripheral resistance that is due mainly to a decreased vascular lumen derived from structural changes in the small arteries wall, named (as a whole) vascular ...
Vascular remodeling in experimental hypertension
(HINDAWI publishing Corporation, 2005-12)
The basic hemodynamic abnormality in hypertension is an increased peripheral resistance that is due mainly to a decreased vascular lumen derived from structural changes in the small arteries wall, named (as a whole) vascular ...
Influence of ovariectomy on cardiac oxidative stress in a renovascular hypertension model
(National Research Council Canada-NRC Research Press, 2012-09)
The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential influence of endogenous ovarian hormones on cardiac oxida-tive stress in renovascular hypertension. Female Wistar rats (N = 10 per group) were divided among 4 groups: (i) ...
Perinatal taurine exerts a hypotensive effect in male spontaneously hypertensive rats and down-regulates endothelial oxide nitric synthase in the aortic arch
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2020-01-13)
Essential hypertension is considered to be a result of the interaction between genetic and environmental factors, including perinatal factors. Different advantageous perinatal factors proved to have beneficial long-lasting ...
Oxidative stress, vascular remodeling, and vascular inflammation in hypertension
(Hindawi, 2013-09)
Hypertension is a major public health problem worldwide, affecting over 50 million individuals in the United States alone. The modern history of hypertension begins with the understanding of the cardiovascular system with ...
Enhanced assymetrical noradrenergic transmission in the olfactory bulb of deoxycorticosterone acetate-salt hypertensive rats
(Springer/Plenum Publishers, 2013-10)
The ablation of olfactory bulb induces critical changes in dopamine, and monoamine oxidase activity in the brain stem. Growing evidence supports the participation of this telencephalic region in the regulation blood pressure ...
Prevalence, Awareness, Treatment, and Control of Hypertension in the Southern Cone of Latin America
(Nature Publishing Group, 2016-08)
BACKGROUND Hypertension is the leading global preventable risk factor for premature death. While hypertension prevalence has been declining in high-income countries, it has increased continuously in low- and middle- income ...
Molecular mechanisms of hypertensive nephropathy: Renoprotective effect of losartan through hsp70
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2021-11)
Hypertensive nephrosclerosis is the second most common cause of end-stage renal disease after diabetes. For years, hypertensive kidney disease has been focused on the afferent arterioles and glomeruli damage and the ...
Association of the C−344T aldosterone synthase gene variant with essential hypertension : a meta-analysis
(Lippincott Williams, 2007-01)
Background: The CYP11B2 gene (CYP11B2) encoding aldosterone synthase has been associated with essential hypertension and some, but not all, studies have reported that the C−344T variant may influence the risk of the disease. ...
