Evaluation of diurnal and postural intracranial pressure employing telemetric monitoring in idiopathic intracranial hypertension

Fluids and Barriers of the CNS, 2022
Objectives Intracranial pressure (ICP) has been thought to vary diurnally. This study evaluates diurnal ICP measurements and quantifies changes in ICP occurring with changes in body posture in active idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH).

Radical Resection of the Third Portion of the Duodenum for Secondary Aortoduodenal Fistula

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Secondary aortoduodenal fistula most commonly involves the third portion of the duodenum and requires definitive management of both vascular and gastrointestinal components. We demonstrate a step‐by‐step technique for radical duodenal resection and reconstruction performed in structured collaboration with cardiovascular surgeons.

Hypertension and orthostatic hypertension in 85-year-olds and associations with mortality and cognitive decline in a longitudinal cohort study

Scientific Reports
Hypertension is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease, but the evidence for treatment and blood pressure (BP) targets in the elderly is less robust. Orthostatic hypertension is a potential risk factor for cardiovascular mortality and cognitive decline.

Safety and pharmacokinetics of mosliciguat, a new, inhaled soluble guanylate cyclase activator, in healthy adult subjects

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Mosliciguat (BAY 1237592), the first soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) activator in a dry powder inhaler (DPI), could potentially treat pulmonary hypertension with a more targeted delivery than systemic sGC stimulators. We report safety and tolerability of mosliciguat in healthy men.

What options does the supine-standing-supine test offer to patients with hypertension? Demonstrations of examples [PDF]

Biomedical Papers, 2007
The purpose of the study was to demonstrate autonomic nervous system (ANS) changes associated with treatment in hypertensive patients and utilization of these measurements in practice.Hypertensive patients were examined before the start of treatment and after blood pressure compensation. The telemetric system VarCor PF 5 was used for non-invasive heart

Renal sympathetic denervation lowers systemic vascular resistance in true treatment-resistant hypertension

Blood Pressure, 2021
Purpose Renal sympathetic denervation (RDN) is again gaining interest as recent well-designed trials have demonstrated reduced ambulatory blood pressure (BP) after RDN. However, the hemodynamic mechanisms have not been elucidated.

Histamine and the mechanisms of nausea and vomiting: Translating the uncertain pharmacology of cyclizine

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cyclizine is a long‐established, short‐acting drug, registered for preventing motion sickness, post‐operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) and ‘vomiting of known cause’. The latter is not defined but may include pregnancy and patients receiving palliative care, historically accepted without large, controlled trials.

Therapeutic efficacy of TBC3711 in monocrotaline-induced pulmonary hypertension [PDF]

, 2011
Background: Endothelin-1 signalling plays an important role in pathogenesis of pulmonary hypertension. Although different endothelin-A receptor antagonists are developed, a novel therapeutic option to cure the disease is still needed.
