Oral Acetazolamide after Boston Keratoprosthesis in Stevens Johnson Syndrome [PDF]

BMC Research Notes, 2012
Background Stevens-Johnson syndrome/toxic epidermal necrolysis (SJS/TEN) is a rare but severe and sometimes fatal condition associated with exposure to medications; sulfamethoxazole is among the most common causes.

Effect of Acetazolamide on Pulmonary Hemodynamics and Right Heart Function in Healthy Adults Going to Altitude: A Randomized Controlled Trial [PDF]

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background Exposure to high altitude triggers hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction with a rise in pulmonary artery pressure (PAP). This may lead to symptomatic pulmonary hypertension with impaired right heart function and exercise capacity. We investigated

Acetazolamide prevents hypoxia‐induced reactive oxygen species generation and calcium release in pulmonary arterial smooth muscle

Pulmonary Circulation, 2021
Upon sensing a reduction in local oxygen partial pressure, pulmonary vessels constrict, a phenomenon known as hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction. Excessive hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction can occur with ascent to high altitude and is a contributing ...

Effect of Acetazolamide on Obesity-Induced Glomerular Hyperfiltration: A Randomized Controlled Trial. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Obesity is an important risk factor for the development of chronic kidney disease. One of the major factors involved in the pathogenesis of obesity-associated kidney disease is glomerular hyperfiltration.
