Vasopeptidase inhibition: A new direction in cardiovascular treatmentCurrent Hypertension Reports - Tập 2 - Trang 384-391 - 2000
Jordan R. Asher, Allen J. Naftilan
The development of new antihypertensive agents is becoming even more important. We need better blood pressure control and also agents that treat hypertension as a disease of the vascular endothelium. Recently, it has been shown that blocking the renin-angiotensin system with angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors reduces blood pressure and decreases the incidence of vascular disease.

Personalized Medicine and the Treatment of HypertensionCurrent Hypertension Reports - - 2019
Sarah Melville, James Brian Byrd
The purpose of this review is to discuss the implications of personalized medicine for the treatment of hypertension, including resistant hypertension. We suggest a framework for the personalized treatment of hypertension based on the concept of a trade-off between simplicity and personalization. This framework is based on treatment strategies classified as low, medium, or high information burden ...... hiện toàn bộ
Role of the Sympathetic Nervous System in Stress-Mediated Cardiovascular DiseaseCurrent Hypertension Reports - Tập 17 - Trang 1-9 - 2015
Dagmara Hering, Kamila Lachowska, Markus Schlaich
A high incidence of acute cardiovascular events and sudden cardiac death following unexpected acute emotional stress or a natural catastrophic disaster has been well-documented over the past decades. Chronic psychosocial factors have been shown to be directly linked to the development of hypertension, cardiovascular disease and stroke. Activation of various neurogenic pathways is an important medi...... hiện toàn bộ
Lipid Nephrotoxicity: New Concept for an Old DiseaseCurrent Hypertension Reports - Tập 14 - Trang 177-181 - 2012
Leonard Gyebi, Zohreh Soltani, Efrain Reisin
The prevalence of obesity in the United States remains high, exceeding 30% in most states. As this trend continues unhindered, we will continue see a persistent rise in obesity-related metabolic effects—hypertension, dyslipidemia, diabetes mellitus, and atherosclerosis. These diseases are also the leading causes of chronic kidney diseases and end-stage renal disease. The lipid nephrotoxicity hypot...... hiện toàn bộ
Preventing the Progression of Prehypertension to Hypertension: Role of AntihypertensivesCurrent Hypertension Reports - Tập 17 - Trang 1-6 - 2014
Flávio Danni Fuchs, Renato Bandeira de Mello, Sandra Costa Fuchs
Recent guidelines for the diagnosis and management of hypertension reversed the historical trend to recommend lower blood pressure (BP) thresholds to diagnose hypertension in high-risk individuals, such as patients with diabetes and elderly patients. The decision to raise the BP thresholds for diagnosis of hypertension in patients with diabetes was mostly based on the findings of the ACCORD trial....... hiện toàn bộ
Alcohol consumption and hypertensionCurrent Hypertension Reports - Tập 7 - Trang 180-185 - 2005
Michael Huntgeburth, Henrik ten Freyhaus, Stephan Rosenkranz
Hypertension is a major independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. In alcohol-consuming populations, the amount of alcohol consumption has significant impact on blood pressure values, the prevalence of hypertension, and cardiovascular as well as all-cause mortality. In this review, we focus on the connection between alcohol consumption and hypertension, and discuss the consequences on car...... hiện toàn bộ
