Impact of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibition on post- coronary artery bypass interleukin 6 release [PDF]

, 2002
Background: Angiotensin 1 converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors reduce morbidity and mortality after coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG). This benefit may result from an anti- inflammatory action.

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 ...

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.

Protein-protein interactions of human somatic angiotensin-converting enzyme

, 2011
In this study, novel disulphide bridges were engineered into the linker region of ACE [Angiotensin-converting enzyme] in an attempt to limit inter-domain movement, thereby producing a candidate for crystallisation and to determine the effect of these ...

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.
