ACE-inhibition prevents postischemic coronary leukocyte adhesion and leukocyte-dependent reperfusion injury [PDF]
, 1997 Objective: Polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN), retained in the microvascular bed, can contribute to postischemic myocardial reperfusion injury. Since a beneficial effect of ACE-inhibition on reperfusion injury has been reported, we investigated the ...

Assessment of Fluid Status in Dialysis: Clinical Importance and Diagnostic Tools [PDF]
Revista Portuguesa de Nefrologia e Hipertensão, 2022 Fluid status is crucial for dialysis patients. Volume overload is a major cardiovascular risk factor. Nevertheless, volume depletion is associated with myocardial stunning and cerebral ischaemia.

Effects of successful percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty on global and regional left ventricular function in unstable angina pectoris [PDF]
, 1987 Sixty-eight patients (58 men, 10 women, mean age 56.3 years, range 31 to 72) with unstable angina pectoris, either initially stabilized with or refractory to optimal pharmacologic treatment, were studied to determine whether regional dysfunction due to ...
