The administration of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) or angiotensin type 1 receptor blockers (ARBs) to pregnant women has been reported to cause ACEI/ARB fetopathy, including oligohydramios, pulmonary hypoplasia, renal insufficiency, limb contracture, and fetal hypotension in the child. Most of

A randomized prospective controlled study, the National Interventional Cooperative Study in Elderly Hypertensives (NICS-EH), previously demonstrated that the preventive effect of the long-acting calcium channel blocker nicardipine on the cardiovascular endpoint was similar to that of the diuretic, trichlormethiazide. The
We tested the hypothesis that blockade of angiotensin II type 1 receptors reduces oxidative stress markers in parallel with urinary albumin and type IV collagen excretions. Sixty-six diabetic patients with nephropathy were randomly assigned to either the angiotensin II receptor
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

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
