Systemic aging fuels heart failure: Molecular mechanisms and therapeutic avenues

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1059-1080, April 2025.
Abstract Systemic aging influences various physiological processes and contributes to structural and functional decline in cardiac tissue. These alterations include an increased incidence of left ventricular hypertrophy, a decline in left ventricular diastolic function, left atrial dilation, atrial fibrillation, myocardial fibrosis and cardiac ...

A SELECTIVE ANTAGONIST OF MINERALOCORTICOID RECEPTOR EPLERENONE IN CARDIOLOGY PRACTICE

Рациональная фармакотерапия в кардиологии, 2015
The role of aldosterone in pathophysiological processes is considered. The effects of the selective antagonist of mineralocorticoid receptor eplerenone are analyzed. The advantages of eplerenone compared with spironolactone are discussed.

Incident heart failure: comparing management and outcome in primary and hospital settings in Western Sweden 2008–2017

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 832-838, April 2025.
Abstract Aim Heart failure (HF) is a highly prevalent condition managed in both primary care (PC) and hospital care (HC)‐based settings. HF patients managed in these two settings may differ in their demography, comorbidities and outcomes, so we aimed to compare the patient management in PC and HC in the Västra Götaland Region (VGR) in Sweden.

The ratios of aldosterone / plasma renin activity (ARR) versus aldosterone / direct renin concentration (ADRR)

Journal of the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System, 2015
Primary aldosteronism (PA) is estimated to occur in 5–12% of patients with hypertension. Assessment of aldosterone / plasma renin activity (PRA) ratio (ARR) has been used as a screening test in patients suspected of PA. Direct determination of renin (DRC)

Eplerenone inhibits aldosterone-induced CRP generation in rat vascular smooth muscle cells by regulating the MR-ROS-ERK1/2 signal pathway

European Journal of Inflammation, 2017
Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease in the vessel wall. As a representative inflammatory cytokine, C-reactive protein (CRP) participates in the formation and development of atherosclerosis.

INVERSION OF THE CONCEPT ABOUT BIOLOGICAL ROLE OF RENIN → ANGIOTENSIN-II → ALDOSTERONE SYSTEM AND FUNCTION OF ARTERIAL BLOOD PRESSURE AS A METABOLISM REGULATOR

Евразийский Кардиологический Журнал, 2015
The phylogenetic theory of general pathology postulates an inversion of the concept about the role of arterial blood pressure (AP) in physiology and pathology. Activation of the synthesis of the renin → angiotensin-II (AG-II) system components by nephron

Meta‐analysis of sotagliflozin, a dual sodium‐glucose‐cotransporter 1/2 inhibitor, for heart failure in type 2 diabetes

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 968-979, April 2025.
Abstract Sodium‐glucose co‐transporters (SGLTs) mediate sodium and glucose transport across cell membranes. SGLT2 inhibitors have a recognized place within heart failure (HF) guidelines. We evaluated the effect of sotagliflozin on HF and cardiovascular outcomes in participants with type 2 diabetes. Scopus, Medline, Embase and Central were searched from
