Severe Vasoplegic Syndrome Treated with Angiotensin II and Hemoadsorption Therapy after Cardiac Surgery

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vasoplegic syndrome (VS) is a common complication after cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). The main pathophysiology mechanism of VS includes a systemic inflammatory response syndrome due to surgical trauma, release of pro‐inflammatory mediators caused by blood contact with foreign surfaces of heart‐lung machine (pump and tubing)

New Approaches to Blockade of the Renin–Angiotensin–Aldosterone System: Characteristics and Usefulness of the Direct Renin Inhibitor Aliskiren

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2010
Since renin inhibition interferes with the first and rate-limiting steps in the renin–angiotensin system, the renin step is a very attractive target for lowering blood pressure and minimizing target-organ damage.

Comparison of the effect of midodrine versus octreotide on hemodynamic status in cirrhotic patients with ascites

open access: yesJournal of Research in Medical Sciences, 2011
Background: In cirrhotic patients peripheral vasodilatation may decrease renal blood flow and subsequently raises plasma renin activity. Octreotide with several mechanisms causes peripheral arterial vasoconstriction.

Hypokalemic rhabdomyolysis: a rare manifestation of primary aldosteronism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Rhabdomyolysis is a rare presentation of hypokalemia, although muscle weakness is a well-known manifestation of hypokalemia. Primary aldosteronism is characterized by hypertension, suppressed plasma renin activity, increased aldosterone excretion and ...
