Medical treatment of ascites in cirrhosis [PDF]
Medical treatment of cirrhotic ascites is essentially supportive, dictated by the patient's discomfort, impaired cardiovascular or respiratory function and potential for infection. Treatment of ‘simple’ ascites (moderate fluid accumulation, serum albumin

Pharmacogenetics of loop diuretics
Objective Genetic variability in pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of diuretics is incompletely studied. We compared the extent of variability in different loop diuretics and determined to what extent this is influenced by polymorphisms in candidate genes. Methods Single oral doses of bumetanide 2 mg, furosemide 80 mg and torasemide 10

Bumetanide: Potent New “Loop” Diuretic [PDF]
Bumetanide, a pharmacologically new diuretic, was evaluated in 27 subjects. Its onset of action was within 30 minutes with a peak at 90 minutes and a total duration of action of about 270 minutes. In a controlled study in oedematous patients it was equipotent with frusemide at one-fortieth the molar dosage and did not differ from frusemide with regard ...

Objective GLP‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1RAs) and SGLT2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) facilitate weight loss and exhibit immunomodulatory effects, but their impact on the risk of developing autoimmune rheumatic diseases (ARDs) is unclear. We compared ARD incidence following initiation of GLP‐1RAs, or SGLT2is, vs.

Vascular effects of loop diuretics [PDF]
Although it is generally believed that the beneficial effect of loop diuretics is the result of a rapid increase in diuresis, substantial evidence, from a large number of in vitro and in vivo experiments, has accumulated showing that administration of furosemide causes direct vascular effects, which probably contribute to its acute clinical effects ...

NaCl transport stimulates prostaglandin release in cultured renal epithelial (MDCK) cells [PDF]
Prostaglandins (PGs) can modulate a variety of renal functions, including Na+ and Cl- reabsorption. However, it is not known if a direct interdependence exists between PG synthesis and transport activity. The present study was done to find out whether or
