Thiazides and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists in chronic kidney disease [PDF]
Romanian Journal of Medical Practice, 2022 The latest treatment guidelines for patients with arterial hypertension continues to indicate as the first line therapy a minimal association between renin-angiotensin system (RAS) blockers and a thiazide-type or a thiazide-like diuretic.

Mineralocorticoid Receptor Antagonists Mitigate Mitral Regurgitation-Induced Myocardial Dysfunction
Cells, 2022 Mitral regurgitation (MR), the disruption of the mitral valve, contributes to heart failure (HF). Under conditions of volume overload, excess mineralocorticoids promote cardiac fibrosis.

PATIENT WITH CHRONIC HEART FAILURE. RATIONAL CHOICE OF THERAPY
Рациональная фармакотерапия в кардиологии, 2017 The theory of chronic hyperactivation of neurohormonal systems, in particular, sympathoadrenal and renin-angiotensin-aldosterone, is the basis of modern concepts of the pathogenesis of heart failure. The medicinal blocking of these two systems has proved

Mineralocorticoid Receptor Antagonists and the Metabolic Syndrome [PDF]
Current Hypertension Reports, 2010 Key components of the metabolic syndrome (MetS), ie, obesity and insulin resistance, are associated with increased aldosterone production and mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) activation. Both MetS and hyperaldosteronism are proinflammatory and pro-oxidative states associated with cardiovascular disease.

Real-World Effectiveness of Mineralocorticoid Receptor Antagonists in Primary Aldosteronism
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2021 ObjectiveTo investigate how often target renin is pursued and achieved in patients with primary aldosteronism (PA) and other low renin hypertension (LRH) treated with mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs), as reversal of renin suppression was ...
