METHODS
The
Vasodilatory edema, a common adverse effect of antihypertensive therapy with vasodilators, is related to several mechanisms, including arteriolar dilatation (causing an increase in intracapillary pressure), stimulation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, and fluid volume retention.
The treatment of hypertension in pregnancy is justified by the need to reduce blood pressure in order to avoid the onset of preeclampsia, eclampsia, retarded intrauterine growth and even neonatal, perinatal and maternal death. The value of using drugs to treat slight-moderate hypertension in
Propranolol is an approved non-selective β-adrenergic blocker that is first line therapy for infantile hemangioma. Despite the clinical benefit of propranolol therapy in hemangioma, the mechanistic understanding of what drives this outcome is limited. Here, we report successful treatment of
