Adiposity, aldosterone and plasma renin activity among African Americans: The Jackson Heart Study
Objective: To analyze associations between adiposity and the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) in a large African American (AA) cohort. Methods: Cross-sectional associations of adiposity (body mass index [BMI], waist circumference [WC], waist ...

Kaplan–Meier hypertension‐free survival by baseline body mass index category, primary adult cohort (men aged ≥ 18 years, n = 12,742). Time since baseline in years is plotted on the horizontal axis and the probability of remaining free of treated hypertension is plotted on the vertical axis. Numbers at risk are shown beneath the plot.

Systemic aging fuels heart failure: Molecular mechanisms and therapeutic avenues
Abstract Systemic aging influences various physiological processes and contributes to structural and functional decline in cardiac tissue. These alterations include an increased incidence of left ventricular hypertrophy, a decline in left ventricular diastolic function, left atrial dilation, atrial fibrillation, myocardial fibrosis and cardiac ...

Relationship between erythropoietin administration and alterations of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone
The effect of erythropoietin (EPO) administration on the responsiveness of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) has not been established. Because patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) require EPO for their management as CKD progresses, it

Abstract Sodium‐glucose co‐transporters (SGLTs) mediate sodium and glucose transport across cell membranes. SGLT2 inhibitors have a recognized place within heart failure (HF) guidelines. We evaluated the effect of sotagliflozin on HF and cardiovascular outcomes in participants with type 2 diabetes. Scopus, Medline, Embase and Central were searched from

Abstract Background Arterial stiffness is a crucial factor in determining an increase in systolic blood pressure and pulse pressure and can also predict the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD). The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between arterial stiffness and future CVD.

Cardiac remodelling in the era of the recommended four pillars heart failure medical therapy
Abstract Cardiac remodelling is a key determinant of worse cardiovascular outcome in patients with heart failure (HF) and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). It affects both the left ventricle (LV) structure and function as well as the left atrium (LA) and the right ventricle (RV).

Renin-angiotensin system may trigger kidney damage in NOD mice
Diabetic nephropathy is a complication of diabetes and one of the main causes of end-stage renal disease. A possible causal link between renin-angiotensin aldosterone system (RAAS) and diabetes is widely recognized but the mechanisms by which the RAAS ...

The effects of sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors on the ‘forgotten’ right ventricle
Abstract With the progress in diagnosis, treatment and imaging techniques, there is a growing recognition that impaired right ventricular (RV) function profoundly affects the prognosis of patients with heart failure (HF), irrespective of their left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF).
