Morning hypertension has been reported to be an important risk factor for cardiovascular events, and arterial stiffness bears a relationship with cardiovascular risk. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether high-dose angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) treatment has
Congenital nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI) is characterized by the insensitivity of the distal nephron to arginine vasopressin. Clinical knowledge of this disease is based largely on case reports. For this study, we investigated the clinical findings of eight patients in

Angiotensin II (Ang II) receptor blocker (ARB) has been reported to have protective effects on the cardiovascular system independent of blood pressure reduction. Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) play a significant role in neovascularization of ischemic tissue. The average lifespan of
To clarify whether combination treatment with desmopressin (DDAVP) and thiazide was clinically effective in a patient with congenital nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (CNDI), we evaluated the treatment in a 7-year-old boy with CNDI who had demonstrated a partial response to DDAVP.
Four genes responsible for pseudohypoaldosteronism type II (PHA-II) have been identified, thereby facilitating molecular diagnostic testing. A 1-year-old boy with prolonged hyperkalemia, metabolic acidosis, hyperchloremia, growth delay, and mild hypertension was diagnosed with PHA-II based on the detection of exon
