Chrysin alleviates pressure overload–induced myocardial remodeling through regulating the PI3K/AKT/NRF2 pathway–mediated oxidative stress response

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
In this study, we primarily simulated pathological myocardial remodeling induced by transverse aortic constriction surgery and found significant cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis, characterized by deteriorated cardiac function. Oxidative stress response is considered as a pivotal pathological process, which contributes to inflammation and apoptosis of ...

Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension Is Characterized by a Distinct Proteomic Profile

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objectives The pathophysiology of idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) is poorly understood and disease‐specific biomarkers are lacking. We aimed to shed light on IIH pathophysiology and identify disease‐specific biomarkers. Methods This prospective cross‐sectional cohort study included patients with new‐onset IIH and age‐, body mass index‐, and ...

Cytokine Pathways Driving Diverse Tissue Pathologies in Rheumatoid Arthritis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a complex systemic disorder characterized primarily by articular inflammation and destruction with associated functional loss and reduced quality of life. RA is also associated with extra‐articular disease, such as that of the lung, with potentially devastating clinical consequences. The critical importance of comorbidities,

From gene to protein - experimental and clinical studies of ACE2 in blood pressure control and arterial hypertension

Frontiers in Physiology, 2014
Hypertension is a major risk factor for stroke, coronary events, heart and renal failure, and the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) plays a major role in its pathogenesis.

Beyond right or wrong: How partial credit scoring on multiple‐choice questions improves student performance and assessment perceptions

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims In this study, we examined the effects of assigning partial credit to selected answer choices on student performance and perceptions in a pharmacology course using Type A multiple‐choice questions (MCQs). Methods Partial credit scoring was incorporated into quizzes and exams in a 10‐week pharmacology course for postbaccalaureate premedical ...

Angiotensin converting enzyme

, 2021
Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) is well known for its dual actions to convert inactive Ang I to active Ang II, and degrades active bradykinin (BK), which plays an important role in controlling blood pressure. Because it is the bottleneck step for the production of pressor Ang II, it was targeted pharmacologically in the 1970s.

Active surveillance of drug safety in healthcare data: Sequential monitoring of bacterial and serious urinary tract infection risk in sodium‐glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor users

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Active surveillance of adverse events using healthcare data is emerging as complementary to the monitoring of spontaneous reports and stand‐alone pharmacoepidemiologic studies. The risk of urinary tract infections (UTIs) was listed as a special warning for sodium‐glucose cotransporter‐2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) when marketed in Europe

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 ...

External validation of the BAN‐ADHF diuretic‐resistance score in the DAPA‐RESIST clinical trial

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Diuretic resistance in worsening heart failure (HF) is associated with poorer outcomes and, although common, can be challenging to identify. The recently developed BAN‐ADHF score can potentially identify patients with worsening HF at risk of diuretic resistance.
