PLASMA RENIN ACTIVITY IN RENOVASCULAR HYPERTENSION
Dynamics of plasma renin activity (PRA) in peripheral and renal vein was studied in 22 patients with various types of renovascular hypertension. Significant elevation of resting peripheral vein PRA (PPRA) was observed in 7 out of 8 cases with unilateral main renal artery stenosis (type I).

Poor communication impairs optimal care of patients with heart failure and erectile dysfunction
Abstract Aims Heart failure (HF) and erectile dysfunction (ED) share numerous risk factors and pathogenetic mechanisms, resulting in a high prevalence of ED among male patients with HF. This questionnaire‐based study aimed to better understand the patient's journey from a patient perspective and that of healthcare professionals (HCPs) regarding ...

Abstract Aims Dapagliflozin (DAPA), a sodium‐glucose co‐transporter 2 inhibitor, has been shown to reduce cardiovascular mortality among patients with chronic heart failure. We aimed to evaluate the impact on a worsening renal function (WRF) by adding DAPA as compared to standard decongestive therapy with loop diuretics alone.

Abstract The kidneys, by equilibrating the outputs to the inputs, are essential for maintaining the constant volume, pH, and electrolyte composition of the internal milieu. Inability to do so, either because of internal kidney dysfunction (primary alteration) or because of some external factors (secondary alteration), leads to pathologies of varying ...

Continuous production for large quantity plasma activated water using multiple plasma device setup [PDF]
In the present work, a batch and continuous production of plasma-activated water (PAW) is reported. To produce PAW in a batch and continuous manner a multiple plasma device setup is used. The multiple plasma device consists of a series of plasma devices that are powered simultaneously to produce PAW.

Abstract Aims The inflammatory profile of cardiogenic shock (CS) after myocardial infarction affects outcomes; however, little is known about the impact of inflammatory changes in CS caused by acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF‐CS). We measured levels of inflammatory cytokines in patients with ADHF‐CS admitted to a cardiac intensive care unit ...
