THE INFLUENCE OF TISSUE ANGIOTENSINS ON ELEMENTS OF THE CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM (LECTURE 2)
Relevance. One of the main causes of death according to the World Health Organization is cardiovascular diseases. It is well known that dysregulation and/or overexpression of elements of the renin-angiotensin system leads to many negative vascular ...

Aim A prior non‐randomized study suggests that potassium supplementation may improve survival among furosemide initiators, and a randomized trial suggests that salt substitutes containing potassium might lower stroke risk. We conducted a retrospective cohort study using health‐care data to confirm or refute these associations among new users of ...
