1 Among 34 patients with mild essential hypertension treated for four weeks with captopril alone the blood pressure of 47% returned to normal. By the end of the fourth week chlorthalidone had been added to captopril in 18 of the patients; 15 then achieved normal blood pressure, and only three failed
Essential hypertension is a heterogenous disease made up of several still unspecified subgroups. According to the dual theory of hypertension, acquired and genetic factors can lead to vascular muscle defects and increased sympathetic drive, which, either both or each alone, can lead to an increased
BACKGROUND
Hypertension has been associated with hypoalgesia. This prospective study was designed to test the effects of untreated preoperative essential hypertension on post-operative pain intensity and morphine requirement after major abdominal surgery.
METHODS
Sixty subjects (30 untreated
Ramipril is a newly synthesized angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor without a sulfhydryl group in the molecule but with a prolonged duration of action. Efficacy, tolerance and safety of this drug were evaluated in 10 patients with severe essential hypertension. After a treatment period of at
A 64-year-old woman with a medical history of morbid obesity, chronic hepatitis C, essential hypertension, multiple episodes of abdominal cellulitis, diabetes mellitus type 2 on insulin, intravenous and subcutaneous drug abuse presented to the emergency department complaining of left lower chest
A 49-year-old female with a 30-year history of untreated essential hypertension was noted to have a blood pressure of 290/175 mmHg during evaluation for elective gynecological surgery. At the time of hospitalization she complained chiefly of chronic frontal headaches. Physical examination revealed
Perioperative hypertension is a phenomenon in which a surgical patient's blood pressure temporarily increases throughout the preoperative and postoperative periods and remains high until the patient's condition stabilizes. This phenomenon requires immediate treatment not only because it is observed
The use of diuretics leads to a negative sodium and fluid balance without primary effects on serum sodium concentration. This parameter is regulated by the activity of the antidiuretic hormone (ADH) system. Secondary changes in other electrolyte systems and in acid base homeostasis also are induced
We hypothesized that individual differences in autonomic responses to psychological, physiological, or environmental stresses are inherited, and exaggerated autonomic responsiveness may represent an intermediate phenotype that can contribute to the development of essential hypertension in humans
A multicenter open trial involving 50 hypertension patients enabled evaluation of the efficacy and tolerability of Isoptine L.P. (sustained release verapamil) in mild to moderate essential hypertension. Following a 2-week placebo run-in period, patients were given Isoptine L.P. (240 mg/24 h) as a
BACKGROUND
Hypertensive crisis in children is a relatively rare condition presenting with elevated blood pressure (BP) and related symptoms, and it is potentially life-threatening. The aim of this study was to survey children with first attacks of hypertensive crisis arriving at the emergency
The efficacy of bromocriptine in the treatment of hypertension was assessed in a double-blind placebo controlled cross-over study preceded by a dose titration phase. A diuretic and/or a beta-blocker were administered concomitantly in constant dosage to 11 of the 20 patients who received
Prostacyclin (PGI2) is known to cause vasorelaxation and inhibit platelet aggregation by receptor-mediated mechanisms. While cyclic (c)AMP is known to act as a second messenger for platelet aggregation, vasorelaxation by hyperpolarization has been described only recently and may provide an
