Aims “Triple whammy” (TW) refers to the concomitant use of diuretics, renin‐angiotensin‐aldosterone system inhibitors (RAASI) and non‐steroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). The aim of this article is to analyse the association between TW exposure and acute kidney injury (AKI), among other morbi‐mortality outcomes.

Angiotensin type-2 (AT-2)-receptor activation reduces renal fibrosis in cyclosporine nephropathy: evidence for blood-pressure independent effect [PDF]
Compound 21 (C21), selective agonist of AT2 receptors, shows antinflammatory effects in hypertension and nephroprotection in diabetes. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of C21 in cyclosporine nephropathy, which is characterized mainly by ...

Involvement of Ca2+ channels in boldine‐induced vascular relaxation. ABSTRACT The regulation of vascular tone plays a fundamental role in blood pressure homeostasis and still represents a significant challenge in clinical practice. Boldine, a naturally occurring alkaloid from Peumus boldus, has emerged as a compound of interest due to its therapeutic ...

Sex differences in the metabolic effects of the renin-angiotensin system
Obesity is a global epidemic that greatly increases risk for developing cardiovascular disease and type II diabetes. Sex differences in the obese phenotype are well established in experimental animal models and clinical populations.

Blockade of the renin-angiotensin system [PDF]
The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system plays a key role in the regulation of fluid and electrolyte balance. Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors inhibit angiotensin-converting enzyme and have been shown to be effective in many cardiovascular ...

ABSTRACT Background Heart failure (HF) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) are common comorbidities among patients undergoing coronary angiography. Both conditions are associated with increased risk of adverse cardiovascular outcomes and mortality. However, the joint prognostic impact of HF and CKD in this patient population remains unclear. Aims We aimed
