Exploring the relationship between ventricular fibrillation recurrence after defibrillation in myocardial infarction and the effectiveness of renal sympathetic denervation therapy

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders
Objective This study aimed to explore the association between electrophysiological markers of early recurrence after defibrillation in post-myocardial infarction ventricular fibrillation and the therapeutic effects of sympathetic renal denervation, as ...

Renal denervation attenuates hypertension and renal dysfunction in a model of cardiovascular and renal disease, which is associated with reduced NADPH and xanthine oxidase activity

Redox Biology, 2017
Oxidative stress is considered a central pathophysiological event in cardiovascular disease, including hypertension. Early age reduction in renal mass is associated with hypertension and oxidative stress in later life, which is aggravated by increased ...

Renal denervation in a patient with a highly tortuous renal artery using a guide extension catheter: a case report

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2021
Background Catheter-based renal denervation (RDN) has been introduced to treat resistant hypertension. Although the technology of RDN has been largely improved, denervation of tortuous renal arteries remains challenging.

Value of 2‐Dimensional Shear‐Wave Elastography in Assessing Tibial Nerve Stiffness in Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, Volume 45, Issue 7, Page 1467-1475, July 2026.
Objectives The morphological alterations of the tibial nerve in patients with diabetes mellitus, both with and without diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN), are challenging to differentiate using B‐mode ultrasound. In this study, we assessed the stiffness changes of the tibial nerve by 2‐dimensional shear‐wave elastography (2D‐SWE). Methods We gathered

Efferent pathways in sodium overload-induced renal vasodilation in rats. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Hypernatremia stimulates the secretion of oxytocin (OT), but the physiological role of OT remains unclear. The present study sought to determine the involvement of OT and renal nerves in the renal responses to an intravenous infusion of hypertonic saline.

Deciphering Freezing of Gait: What Neuropathology Reveals About an Episodic Phenomenon

European Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 63, Issue 12, June 2026.
Freezing of gait (FoG) occurs across Parkinson's disease, multiple neurodegenerative conditions and non‐neurodegenerative disorders. This review synthesizes the structural, neurochemical and proteinopathic substrates underlying FoG, showing how cumulative damage to distributed locomotor circuits—compounded by overlapping pathologies—progressively ...

Renal denervation ameliorated salt-induced hypertension by improving cardiac work, cardiac enzyme and oxidative balance in Sprague-Dawley rats

International Journal of Cardiology. Cardiovascular Risk and Prevention
Background: Hypertension is associated with cardiovascular dysfunction, dysregulation of the antioxidant system and alteration of the level of some enzymes in the metabolic pathway.

Reflections on Renal Denervation

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2014
![Figure][1] Based upon earlier experience with surgical sympathectomy and considerable data in experimental animals, clinical studies began to evaluate whether transcatheter renal sympathetic denervation (RDN) by radiofrequency ablation could provide effective therapy for ...

Impact of Selective Renal Afferent Denervation on Oxidative Stress and Vascular Remodeling in Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats

Antioxidants, 2022
Oxidative stress and sustained sympathetic over-activity contribute to the pathogenesis of hypertension. Catheter-based renal denervation has been used as a strategy for treatment of resistant hypertension, which interrupts both afferent and efferent ...

Effect of renal denervation on glucose metabolism after a 12 month follow-up

Biomedical Papers, 2015
Background: Renal denervation is an invasive endovascular procedure using radiofrequency ablation of the renal arteries. This reduces renal sympathetic activity. However, the effect of renal denervation on glucose metabolism remains unclear.
