Association between the angiotensin-converting enzyme (insertion/deletion) and angiotensin II type 1 receptor (A1166C) polymorphisms and breast cancer among Brazilian women

open access: yes, 2009
Introduction. We evaluated the assocation between components of the renin-angiotensin system and the development of breast cancer in a case-control study by means of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) insertion/deletion (I/D) and angiotensin II type I ...

Bioelectrical Impedance in Pediatric Dialysis: Clinical Applications, Limitations, and Opportunities

open access: yesHemodialysis International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Optimizing fluid and nutritional management is a cornerstone of care for children with end‐stage kidney disease on dialysis. Inaccurate assessment of hydration status contributes to hypertension, fluid overload, and increased cardiovascular risk, while masking important changes in muscle and fat compartments that affect growth and ...

Preventive Effect of Mineralocorticoid Receptor Antagonists Against Proteinuria Induced by Atezolizumab Plus Bevacizumab Therapy in Hepatocellular Carcinoma: A Multicenter Retrospective Study

open access: yesHepatology Research, EarlyView.
Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists are known to reduce proteinuria in chronic kidney disease, but their effectiveness in preventing bevacizumab‐related proteinuria has not been well established. In the present multi‐institutional retrospective study, we found that these agents significantly delay the onset of moderate or higher grade proteinuria ...

Potassium binders and continuation of renin–angiotensin system inhibitors/mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist in chronic kidney disease and heart failure (the DEMONSTRATE database)

open access: yesJournal of Internal Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Hyperkalaemia is a serious complication in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and heart failure (HF), often leading to the discontinuation of renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system inhibitors (RAASi; renin‐angiotensin system inhibitors [RASi] and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists [MRAs]) despite their cardiorenal ...

Amiloride enhances the secretion but not the synthesis of renin in renal juxtaglomerular cells

open access: yes, 1991
In this study we have examined a potential role of the sodium/proton exchange system in the regulation of renin secretion. We found that the inhibitors of the Na+/H+ antiport, amiloride (1 mM) and ethylisopropylamiloride (EIPA, 50 microM), led to a 125 ...

Psychogenic polydipsia in dogs – a review of pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment

open access: yesJournal of Small Animal Practice, EarlyView.
Polyuria and polydipsia represent a common clinical presentation in dogs and may result from numerous disorders affecting different body systems. Compulsive water consumption is characteristic of psychogenic polydipsia, a primary polydipsia disorder rooted in neurologic, behavioural or environmental factors.

Influence of menstrual cycle phase on inflammatory and vascular responses to acute passive heating in healthy young women

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The aim of this study was to determine whether inflammatory and vascular responses to passive heating differ between the early follicular phase (EFP) and the mid‐luteal phase (MLP) of the menstrual cycle. Ten healthy, naturally menstruating females (26 ± 3 years of age; body mass index 21.4 ± 1.9 kg/m2) were assessed during EFP and MLP ...

Sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors for hypertension in cardiovascular–kidney–metabolic syndrome

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The antihypertensive mechanism of sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors has been traditionally attributed to osmotic diuresis. However, emerging evidence reveals multifaceted mechanisms beyond diuresis, including regulation of the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system, sympathetic nervous system suppression, ion homeostasis ...

The effect of renin-angiotensin system blockade on renal protection in chronic kidney disease patients with hyperkalemia.

open access: yes, 2014
HYPOTHESIS: The aim of this study was to determine the effects of renin-angiotensin system (RAS) blockade maintenance on renal protection in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients with hyperkalemia occurring during treatment with RAS blockade.
