The cytochrome 11B2 aldosterone synthase gene rs1799998 single nucleotide polymorphism determines elevated aldosterone, higher blood pressure, and reduced glomerular filtration, especially in diabetic female patients

open access: yesEndocrine Regulations, 2020
Objective. The cytochrome 11B2 aldosterone synthase gene (CYP11B2) that links to aldosterone synthase enzyme synthesis changes and blood pressure regulation is of particular interest among the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system encoding genes.

Drug‐Event Pairs as Indicators for the Detection of Adverse Drug Reactions during Hospitalization in Routinely Collected Electronic Data Sources

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) are a common cause of morbidity and mortality in hospitalized patients. Identification of ADRs in clinical practice, surveillance and research is essential to prevent further harm. The aim of this study was to assess the likelihood of drugs contributing to clinically important inpatient adverse events, in order to provide ...

Use of guideline‐recommended medical therapy in patients with heart failure and chronic kidney disease: from physician's prescriptions to patient's dispensations, medication adherence and persistence

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, Volume 24, Issue 11, Page 2185-2195, November 2022., 2022
Patients with heart failure and chronic kidney disease are less likely to receive and persist on guideline‐recommended medical therapies. Aim Half of heart failure (HF) patients have chronic kidney disease (CKD) complicating their pharmacological management.

N-terminal domain Increases Activation of Elephant Shark Glucocorticoid and Mineralocorticoid Receptors [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
Cortisol, corticosterone and aldosterone activate full-length glucocorticoid receptor (GR) from elephant shark, a cartilaginous fish belonging to the oldest group of jawed vertebrates. Activation by aldosterone a mineralocorticoid, indicates partial divergence of elephant shark GR from the MR.

Right ventricular dysfunction predicts outcome after transcatheter mitral valve repair for primary mitral valve regurgitation

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, Volume 24, Issue 11, Page 2162-2171, November 2022., 2022
RVD predicts outcome after M‐TEER for PMR. CI, confidence interval; HR, hazard ratio; PMR, primary mitral regurgitation; RVD, right ventricular dysfunction. Abstract Aims Right ventricular dysfunction (RVD), as expressed by right ventricular to pulmonary artery coupling, has recently been identified as a strong outcome predictor in patients undergoing ...

Transcriptional Activation of Elephant Shark Mineralocorticoid Receptor by Corticosteroids, Progesterone and Spironolactone [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
We report the analysis of activation by corticosteroids and progesterone of full-length mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) from elephant shark, a cartilaginous fish belonging to the oldest group of jawed vertebrates. Based on their measured activities, aldosterone, cortisol, 11-deoxycorticosterone, corticosterone, 11-deoxcortisol, progesterone and 19 ...

Clinical profile, short and long‐term outcomes of non‐ischaemic cardiogenic shock: A FRENSHOCK sub‐analysis

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Although predominant in routine practice, non‐ischaemic cardiogenic shock (NICS) remains underrepresented in past studies, mainly focused on ischaemic cardiogenic shock (CS). This study aims to describe the current NICS picture and define its independent correlates of short‐ and long‐term outcomes.

Plasma Aldosterone Levels Are Not Associated With Cardiovascular Events Among Patients With High‐Risk Vascular Disease: Insights From the ACCELERATE Trial

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2019
Background The failure of cholesteryl ester transfer protein inhibitor torcetrapib was associated with an off‐target increase in plasma aldosterone. We sought to evaluate the impact of evacetrapib on plasma aldosterone level and determine the association
