Abnormally sustained aldosterone secretion during salt loading in patients with various forms of benign hypertension; relation to plasma renin activity.

Journal of Clinical Investigation, 1970
Among 25 patients with benign, essential hypertension, and an equal number with other benign forms of hypertension, without serious cardiac, renal, or cerebrovascular impairment, 41 cases failed to reduce aldosterone excretion rates into the normal range

Adverse Cardiovascular Risk Profile and Increased Diurnal Salivary Cortisol in Girls With Turner Syndrome: An Exploratory Study

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Patients with Turner Syndrome (TS) and those exposed to high concentrations of glucocorticoids have a number of characteristics in common, including an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Pediatric TS patients underwent studies of salivary cortisol (SC) and cortisone (SCn), body composition, continuous glucose monitoring, vascular ...

Collecting Duct Renin Does Not Mediate DOCA-Salt Hypertension or Renal Injury. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
Collecting duct (CD)-derived renin is involved in the hypertensive response to chronic angiotensin-II (Ang-II) administration. However, whether CD renin is involved in Ang-II independent hypertension is currently unknown.

Absence of Functional Autoantibodies Targeting Angiotensin II Receptor Type 1 and Endothelin‐1 Type A Receptor in Circulation and Purified IgG From Patients With Systemic Sclerosis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a rare but severe autoimmune disease characterized by immune dysregulation, fibrosis, and vasculopathy. Although previous studies have highlighted the presence of functional autoantibodies targeting the angiotensin II receptor type 1 (AT1) and endothelin‐1 type A receptor (ETAR), leading to autoantibody‐mediated ...

Sex differences in soluble prorenin receptor in patients with type 2 diabetes

Biology of Sex Differences, 2021
Background The soluble prorenin receptor (sPRR), a member of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS), is elevated in plasma of patients with preeclampsia, hypertension, chronic kidney disease (CKD), and type 2 diabetes.

Selective generation of reactive oxygen species in plasma activated water using CO2 plasma [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
In the present work, a process of a selective generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as H2O2 and dissolved O3 in plasma-activated water (PAW) is discussed. For selective ROS generation, pure CO2 was used as a plasma-forming gas. The gases species present in plasma and properties of PAW are compared in details when CO2 and air are used as ...

A diurnal rhythm in plasma renin activity in man.

Journal of Clinical Investigation, 1966
Although it has been known for many years that the renin-angiotensin system is responsive to decreases in renal perfusion pressure (1-3), it was only recently discovered that angiotensin is an important regulator of aldosterone secretion (4-6). Before it

PCSK‐9 Inhibitors Can Significantly Improve the Coronary Slow Flow Caused by Elevated Lipoprotein (a) in ST‐Elevation Myocardial Infarction Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Coronary slow flow and no reflow significantly predict poor prognosis in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients, especially those with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Early identification of factors contributing to these conditions can mitigate ischemic events and improve outcomes.

Spectroscopic characterization of atmospheric pressure um-jet plasma source [PDF]

, 2011
A radio frequency um-jet plasma source is studied using He/O2 mixture. This um-jet can be used for different applications as a source of chemical active species e.g. oxygen atoms, molecular metastables and ozone. Using absolutely-calibrated optical emission spectroscopy and numerical simulation, the gas temperature in active plasma region and plasma ...

Plasma Renin Activity in Hypertensive Diseases [PDF]

, 1970
1970-07Plasma renin activity was determined in normotensive and hypertensive human subjects by a modification of the method of Boucher and co-workers. Simultaneous determination of plasma volume, serum electrolyte concentration and plasma renin activity ...
