Relationship between blood pressure level and activity of renin-aldosterone axis in patients with essential hypertension—a retrospective study [PDF]

PeerJ
Background A study indicates that elevated aldosterone levels increase the risk of hypertension by 16%. This retrospective cohort study examines the relationship between blood pressure and renin-aldosterone levels in patients with essential hypertension (

Impact of empiric potassium supplementation on mortality, sudden cardiac arrest and stroke in furosemide initiators

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim A prior non‐randomized study suggests that potassium supplementation may improve survival among furosemide initiators, and a randomized trial suggests that salt substitutes containing potassium might lower stroke risk. We conducted a retrospective cohort study using health‐care data to confirm or refute these associations among new users of ...

Intratumoural aldosterone and CYP11B2 expression levels among different genotypes of aldosterone producing tumours

Endocrine Connections
Primary aldosteronism is the most common endocrine cause of hypertension, affecting 5–10% of hypertensive patients. Determining the source of aldosteronism is necessary for correct diagnosis and further molecular analysis. To investigate the relationship

The effects of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system gene polymorphisms on insulin resistance in hypertensive families

, 2014
Introduction: The hereditability of insulin resistance has been demonstrated in both familial and twin studies. The effects of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system gene polymorphisms on insulin resistance remain inconclusive.

Changes of aldosterone levels in patients with type 2 diabetes complicated by moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea–hypopnea syndrome before and after treatment with continuous positive airway pressure

Journal of International Medical Research, 2019
Objective Both obstructive sleep apnea–hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are closely related to the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system.

Aldosterone induces inflammatory cytokines in penile corpus cavernosum by activating the NF-κB pathway

Asian Journal of Andrology, 2018
Emerging evidence indicates that aldosterone and mineralocorticoid receptors (MRs) are associated with the pathogenesis of erectile dysfunction. However, the molecular mechanisms remain largely unknown.

Pt‐TiO2 mesoporous nanosystem co‐delivering phlorezin enables synergistic sonodynamic‐chemoimmunotherapy for hepatocellular carcinoma via directly targeting DDX5 and metabolic reprogramming modulation

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Abstract Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), ranking as the third leading cause of cancer‐related mortality globally, continues to pose significant therapeutic challenges. Here, we developed an innovative nanosystem, Phl@PT, based on Pt‐TiO2 nanoparticles for the co‐delivery of Phlorezin, presenting a novel approach for HCC treatment through sonodynamic ...

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 ...
