Catecholamine-induced vasoconstriction is sensitive to carbonic anhydrase I activation
Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2001 We studied the relationship between alpha- and beta-adrenergic agonists and the activity of carbonic anhydrase I and II in erythrocyte, clinical and vessel studies. Kinetic studies were performed.

Cilostazol in patients with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction—The CLIP‐HFpEF trial
ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1437-1446, April 2025.• Cilostazol is an oral PDE‐3 inhibitor that may have advantageous effects in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). • Cilostazol significantly improved short‐term heart failure‐related health status scores (KCCQ‐12) and NT‐proBNP levels when compared to placebo.

Status epilepticus: Updates on mechanisms and treatments
Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract Status epilepticus (SE) consists of prolonged, self‐sustaining seizures and is a common neurological emergency that causes respiratory compromise and neuronal injury. Without prompt treatment, the seizures can become resistant to benzodiazepines, leading to the progressive evolution of established, refractory, and super‐refractory SE.

Therapeutic role of nifedipine in threatened preterm labor: Current evidence and future perspectives
International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.Abstract Preterm birth occurs in approximately 10% of all pregnancies, and is not only the leading cause of neonatal mortality but also a major contributor to short‐ and long‐term morbidities due to immaturity. Preterm birth has also been linked to an increased risk of maternal cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, making it a critical concern ...
