Witness electron beam injection using an active plasma lens for a proton beam-driven plasma wakefield accelerator [PDF]

, 2021
An active plasma lens focuses the beam in both the horizontal and vertical planes simultaneously using a magnetic field generated by a discharge current through the plasma. A beam size of 5--10 $\mu$m can be achieved within a short distance using a focusing gradient on the order of 100 T/m.

Atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) and renin-aldosterone in volume regulation of patients with cirrhosis [PDF]

, 1989
The role of the atrial natriuretic factor and of the main counteracting sodium-retaining principle, the renin-aldosterone system, in acute volume regulation of cirrhosis of the liver has been investigated.

Application of a radioimmunoassay for angiotensin I to the physiologic measurements of plasma renin activity in normal human subjects.

Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, 1969
A radioimmunoassay for angiotensin I and its application to the determination of renin activity is described. The assay employs antibodies raised to copolymers of angiotensin I and succinylated poly-l-lysine. Angiotensin labeled with 125I and purified by

The ratios of aldosterone / plasma renin activity (ARR) versus aldosterone / direct renin concentration (ADRR)

Journal of the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System, 2015
Primary aldosteronism (PA) is estimated to occur in 5–12% of patients with hypertension. Assessment of aldosterone / plasma renin activity (PRA) ratio (ARR) has been used as a screening test in patients suspected of PA. Direct determination of renin (DRC)

Plasma Renin Activity and Aldosterone Concentrations in Hypertensive Cats with and without Azotemia and in Response to Treatment with Amlodipine Besylate

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, 2013
Background Role of renin‐angiotensin aldosterone system (RAAS) in feline systemic hypertension is poorly understood. Objectives Examine plasma renin activity (PRA) and plasma aldosterone concentrations (PAC) in normotensive and hypertensive cats with ...

Heightened Cardiovascular Risk in Hypertension Associated With Renin‐Independent Aldosteronism Versus Renin‐Dependent Aldosteronism: A Collaborative Study

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2021
Background While both renin‐dependent and renin‐independent aldosterone secretion contribute to aldosteronism, their relative associations with cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk has not been investigated.

The early evolution of solar flaring plasma loops [PDF]

Universe, 2021, 7: 378, 2021
Plasma loops are the elementary structures of solar flaring active regions which dominate the whole processes of flaring eruptions. The standard flare models are well explained the evolution and eruption after magnetic reconnection around the hot cusp-structure above the top of plasma loops, however, the early evolution of the plasma loops before the ...

Suspected primary hyperreninism in a cat with malignant renal sarcoma and global renin‐angiotensin‐aldosterone system upregulation

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, 2022
A 14‐year‐old male castrated domestic medium‐hair cat with diabetes mellitus was evaluated for vomiting, diarrhea, and anorexia. Two weeks before presentation, the cat had been diagnosed with congestive heart failure and started on furosemide.
