Hypertension and coronary heart disease
(2002)
The association of hypertension and coronary heart disease is a frequent one. There are several pathophysiologic mechanisms which link both diseases. Hypertension induces endothelial dysfunction, exacerbates the atherosclerotic ...
Effects of hypertension and pressure gradient in a human cerebral aneurysm using fluid structure interaction simulations
(World Scientific, 2017)
Fluid-structure interaction (FSI) simulations were carried out in a human cerebral aneurysm model with the objective of quantifying the effects of hypertension and pressure gradient on the behavior of fluid and solid ...
Differences in health policies for drug availability in pulmonary arterial hypertension and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension across Latin America
(USA, 2022-01-05)
Treatment for pulmonary arterial hypertension and chronic thromboembolicpulmonary hypertension in Latin America differs between countries, withregard to disease etiology, health insurance coverage, and drug availability. ...
Modulation of (Na,K)-ATPase activity by membrane fatty acid composition: Therapeutic implications in human hypertension
(2014)
Oxidative stress (OS) plays a key role in the pathophysiology of essential hypertension and is associated with changes in the cell membrane fatty acid composition and fluidity. As (Na,K)-ATPase is modulated by the surrounding ...
Best antihypertensive strategies to improve blood pressure control in Latin America : Position of the Latin American Society of Hypertension
(2018-02)
Evidence from randomized trials has shown that effective treatment with blood pressure (BP)-lowering medications reduces the risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in patients with hypertension. Therefore, hypertension ...
Increased Na, K, Cl cotransporter and Na, K-ATPase activity of vascular tissue in two-kidney Goldblatt hypertension
(1998)
The properties of the Na/K pump and Na, K, Cl cotransporter were studied in vascular tissue of two-kidney Goldblatt hypertensive rats. These transport systems were measured as ouabain-sensitive and bumetanide-sensitive ...
Angiotensin-(1-9) reduces cardiovascular and renal inflammation in experimental renin-independent hypertension
(Elsevier Inc., 2018)
© 2018 Elsevier Inc. Hypertension-induced cardiovascular and renal damage can be mediated by activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system. There are different factors beyond renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system ...
Comparison of extra renal potassium disposal in hypertensive, diabetic and normal subjects Estudio comparativo del manejo extrarrenal de potasio en sujetos controles, pacientes hipertensos y diabéticos
(1997)
Background: Sodium and potassium ions are involved in the regulation of blood pressure and the genesis of hypertension. Aim: To assess internal potassium balance, as a measure of sodium pump activity, in subjects with ...
