Reverse Diagnostic Thinking for Aortic Coarctation Using the Renal Artery Bilateral Parvus et Tardus as a Clue: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT In young patients with hypertension or stroke, the presence of bilateral parvus et tardus waveforms in the renal arteries should prompt reverse tracing to rule out aortic coarctation. This simple ultrasound clue enables early, non‐invasive screening and prevents missed diagnoses.

A Newly Isolated Carboxymethyl-Glucan (CM-G) Restores Depressed Baroreflex Sensitivity in Renovascular Hypertensive Rats

Frontiers in Physiology, 2018
This study was designed to investigate the effects of a newly synthesized carboxymethyl-glucan (CM-G) on blood pressure (BP), baroreflex sensitivity (BRS) and sympathetic vascular modulation in renovascular hypertensive rats.

Paraventricular Nucleus Infusion of Oligomeric Proantho Cyanidins Improves Renovascular Hypertension

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2021
Oxidative stress plays an important role in the pathogenesis of hypertension. Oligomeric proantho cyanidins (OPC) is the main polyphenol presents in grape seed and is known for its potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. In the present study,

Kinetic and structural characterisation of domain‐specific angiotensin I‐converting enzyme inhibition by captopril, rentiapril and zofenoprilat

The FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 11, Page 3399-3414, June 2026.
Angiotensin I‐converting enzyme (ACE) contains two catalytic domains (nACE and cACE) and is a key therapeutic target for hypertension and cardiovascular disease. Current ACE inhibitors (ACEi) nonselectively inhibit both domains, causing adverse effects. Selective inhibition requires an understanding of domain‐specific binding.

Angiotensin II and angiotensin-(1-7) in paraventricular nucleus modulate cardiac sympathetic afferent reflex in renovascular hypertensive rats. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
The enhanced cardiac sympathetic afferent reflex (CSAR) is involved in the sympathetic activation that contributes to the pathogenesis and progression of hypertension. Activation of AT(1) receptors by angiotension (Ang) II in the paraventricular nucleus (

Statin Therapy Protects White Matter in Cerebral Small Vessel Disease Independent of Lipid‐Lowering: Biomarker and Neuroimaging Evidence

Brain and Behavior, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
This study, through an analysis of neuroimaging markers, biomarkers of white matter damage, and the volume of the hippocampal fimbria (a white matter structure) in patients with cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD), revealed that the protective effect of statin therapy against white matter damage in CSVD patients is independent of its lipid‐lowering ...

Paediatric renal transplantation: Paediatric surgeons' perspective

Surgical Practice, Volume 30, Issue 2, Page 117-122, May 2026.
Abstract Renal transplantation is the most effective treatment for paediatric end‐stage renal disease (ESRD), offering advantages in survival, growth and neurocognitive development that surpass other renal replacement therapies (RRT). The paediatric setting, however, introduces distinct complexities that distinguish it from adult practice.

Hypertensive Crises in the Adolescent: Evaluation of Suspected Renovascular Hypertension

Acta Medica Indonesiana, 2016
Hypertensive crises can be divided into two categories as hypertensive emergency and hypertensive urgency. Most authorities have defined hypertensive emergency as a situation that requires immediate reduction in blood pressure (BP) with parenteral ...

Magnitude and variability of blood pressure and renal vascular conductance responses to postural changes, exercise, and cold in black adults: A pilot study

Physiological Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, May 2026.
Abstract We developed a noninvasive approach to measure vascular responses to sympathetic stimuli. We hypothesized that standing, handgrip exercise, or cold exposure would raise blood pressure (BP) and lower renal vascular conductance (RVC). BP was recorded continuously and renal arterial velocity was measured using renal Doppler ultrasound.

Hypertensive Urgency and Pulmonary Infiltrates: A Report of Three Cases

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Hypertensive urgency is commonly attributed to medication nonadherence, progression of essential hypertension, or secondary causes. However, in some patients, no clear precipitating factor is identified, despite repeated evaluations and the absence of target organ damage. Subclinical inflammatory conditions have been hypothesized as potential,
