Sodium chloride versus glucose solute as a volume replacement therapy for more effective decongestion in acute heart failure (SOLVRED‐AHF): A prospective, randomized, mechanistic study

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
The impact of sodium chloride (NaCl) supplementation on proximal and distal tubular reabsorption in acute heart failure (AHF). Abstract Aims We questioned the long‐standing paradigm that sodium/chloride restriction is essential for effective decongestion in acute heart failure (AHF). This study compared the decongestive effects of two isotonic infusion

Racial differences in sensitivity of blood pressure to aldosterone [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Blacks in comparison with whites are at risk for a more serious form of hypertension with high rates of complications. Greater sodium retention is thought to underlie the blood pressure (BP)-determining physiology of blacks, but specific mechanisms have ...

The novel serine protease PreR-Co promotes endothelium-independent vasorelaxation in rabbit aortic rings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The effect of a novel enzyme (PreR-Co) that activates renal prorenin was studied on rabbit aortas with and without endothelium. It was tested 1) in the basal tone of nonstimulated or ANG II-sensitized rings or rings precontracted with norepinephrine (NE),

Hypertension in mice lacking 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Deficiency of 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2 (11β-HSD2) in humans leads to the syndrome of apparent mineralocorticoid excess (SAME), in which cortisol illicitly occupies mineralocorticoid receptors, causing sodium retention, hypokalemia, and ...

Things We Do for No Reason: Failing to consider primary aldosteronism in the initial evaluation of hypertension, hypertensive urgency, and hypertensive emergency

open access: yesJournal of Hospital Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Hypertension is frequently treated as essential hypertension. However, secondary causes of hypertension should be considered, because distinct treatments are used for different causes of hypertension. Primary aldosteronism is considered a candidate for the most common cause of secondary hypertension.

Juxtaglomerular cell tumor: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Medical Case Reports
Introduction The tumor produces an excessive amount of renin resulting in secondary hyperaldosteronism, thereby causing hypertension with hypokalemia. The authors describe a case of reninoma in a young man, who presented with malignant hypertension. Case
