Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective We investigated whether a diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) affects the quality of inpatient acute myocardial infarction (AMI) care and long‐term mortality post‐AMI. Methods We analyzed data from 784,091 adults, 6,047 with a diagnosis of RA, from England and Wales hospitalized with AMI between 2005 and 2019 from the Myocardial Ischaemia ...

Uptake and metabolism of the novel peptide angiotensin-(1-12) by neonatal cardiac myocytes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Angiotensin-(1-12) [Ang-(1-12)] functions as an endogenous substrate for the productions of Ang II and Ang-(1-7) by a non-renin dependent mechanism. This study evaluated whether Ang-(1-12) is incorporated by neonatal cardiac myocytes and the enzymatic ...

Clinical, Histologic, and Serological Predictors of Renal Function Loss in Lupus Nephritis
Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective Kidney survival is the ultimate goal in lupus nephritis (LN) management, but long‐term predictors remain inadequately studied, requiring long‐term follow‐up. This study aimed to identify baseline and early longitudinal predictors of kidney survival in the Accelerating Medicines Partnership LN longitudinal cohort.

Attenuation of Focal Cerebral Ischemic Injury Following Post Ischemic Inhibition of Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE) Activity in Normotensive Rat [PDF]
Central renin angiotensin system has an important role on the cerebral microcirculation and metabolism. Our previous work showed that inhibition of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) activity prior to induction of ischemia protected the brain from ...

Pilot study of losartan for pulmonary hypertension in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. [PDF]
, 2005 BACKGROUND: Morbidity in COPD results from a combination of factors including hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension, in part due to pulmonary vascular remodelling. Animal studies suggest a role of angiotensin II and acute studies in man concur.
